Storage controller vendors provide a software management tool that Virtual SAN can use to update controller drivers and firmware. If the management tool is not present on ESXi hosts, you can download the tool.
The Updates page only supports specific storage controller models from selected vendors.
Prerequisites
- Verify hardware compatibility on the Configuration Assist page.
- DRS must be enabled if you must keep VMs running during the software updates.
Procedure
What to do next
When the storage controller Management tool is available, the Updates page lists any missing drivers or firmware. You can update those missing components.
