Solution

Summary

Rollups provide you with a convenient way to download and install multiple bundles at one time. Installing this rollup bundle ZIP provides all the fixes for the ESX Server 3.0.3 as of March 31, 2009.

The rollup bundle ZIP contains fixes for ESX Server 3.0.3 software only, and cannot be used to upgrade from prior ESX Server releases.  

Download and Installation

When you download ESX303-Rollup01 from http://www.vmware.com/download/, ensure that you download the dependent patches also from the depot.  
 
Note: All virtual machines on the host must be either shut down or migrated using VMotion before applying the patch. A reboot of the ESX Server host is required after applying this patch.
 
See the VMware Update Manager Administration Guide for instructions on using VMware Update Manager to download and install patches to automatically update ESX Server 3.0.3 hosts.

To update ESX Server 3.0.3 hosts when not using VMware Update Manager, download the most recent patch bundle from http://support.vmware.com/selfsupport/download/ and install the bundle using esxupdate from the command line of the host. For more information, see the ESX Server 3 Patch Management Guide .
