  • @Antonio thats correct, the update loaded is VMware ESXi, Patch ESXe350-200908402-T-BG: Updates VMware Tools

    http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/sea...

    Makes ESXi go to build number 184236

    It is a critical patch. Hope this helps out.

    So if I found an host with ESX 3i 3.5.0, build 184236 I suppose this is an "Update 4" release with some patches added? it's right?
