Using the Driver CD

The ESX driver CD allows you to install new or updated drivers on new or existing ESX software installations. You can use the driver CD in three ways:

  • To install drivers as part of a new ESX software installation
  • To update or add drivers by using vihostupdate
  • To update or add drivers on existing ESX installations by using esxupdate

To install drivers for devices as part of a new ESX installation

Note: This procedure has changed since the ESX 3.5 driver-CD versions. You need the ESX installation DVD to begin driver installation.

  1. Place the ESX installation DVD in the DVD drive of the host.
  2. Accept the terms of the license agreement.
  3. Select a keyboard type.
  4. When prompted about custom drivers, select Yes to install custom drivers.
  5. Click Add to eject the ESX installation DVD.
  6. Place the driver CD in the DVD drive of the ESX host.
  7. Select driver module to import drivers to the ESX host.
  8. Click Next to continue.
    A dialog box displays the following message: Load the system drivers.
  9. Click Yes.
    After loading the driver module, continue installing ESX. After the drivers are installed you are prompted to swap the driver CD with the ESX installation DVD.

To update or add drivers on existing ESX installations by using vihostupdate

  1. Start the ESX host.
  2. Place the driver CD in the CD-ROM drive of the host on which either the vSphere CLI package is installed or vMA is hosted.
  3. Mount the driver CD.
  4. Navigate to <cd mount point>/offline-bundle/ and locate the <offline-bundle>.zip file.
  5. Run the vihostupdate command to install drivers using the offline bundle.
    vihostupdate <conn_options> --install --bundle <offline-bundle>.zip

For more details on vihostupdate, see the vSphere Command-Line Interface Installation and Reference Guide.

To update or add drivers on existing ESX installations by using esxupdate

  1. Start the ESX host and log in to ESX as root.
  2. Place the driver CD in the CD-ROM drive of the ESX host.
  3. Mount the driver CD.
  4. Navigate to <cd mount point>/offline-bundle/ and locate the <offline-bundle>.zip file.
  5. Run the esxupdate command to install drivers using the offline bundle.
