ESX 3.5 Host Update Rollup Bundle Advisory

ESX update releases are cumulative. A new update release contains all fixes from the previous update release. For example, ESX350-Update02 contains all of the fixes introduced in ESX350-Update01, and ESX350-Update03 contains all of the fixes introduceed in ESX350-Update01 and ESX350-Update02. Therefore, it is unnecessary to install ESX350-Update01 and ESX350-Update02 on a host that is already compliant with ESX350-Update03.  

To work around the Not Compliant status of the ESX host against a baseline containing the ESX350-Update01 and ESX350-Update 02 rollup bundles, do one of the following:

• Detach the baseline containing the ESX350-Update01 and ESX350-Update02 rollup bundles from all hosts that are compliant with the baseline containing the ESX350-Update03 bundle.
  
  OR
  
  
• Remediate the host against the baseline containing ESX350-Update01 and ESX350-Update02. No patch binaries are installed on the host, but the compliance status becomes Compliant.
