Caution – Make sure to select the compatible pair of drivers. If you attempt to
install an incompatible Xsigo driver after installing the Infiniband driver, you will
receive an error message
▼ Upgrade VMware Host Servers
1. Copy the host driver package to your system. The Xsigo host driver package
contains both the InfiniBand stack and the Xsigo host drivers.
For example, the following command illustrates copying the package using scp:
scp </path/to/driver.zip> user@host:/mydrive
2. Check the version of the drivers installed on the system.
3. Remove the Xsigo drivers package:
4. Install the new Xsigo drivers package:
5. Confirm that the updated packages have been installed:
6. Reboot the VMware server.
This completes the VMware host server upgrade. If you have more servers to
upgrade, complete that task now. If you have upgraded all servers, proceed to
“Upgrade OS on the Oracle Fabric Interconnect” on page 20-373 to upgrade your
second Fabric Interconnect’s OS.
