Thats the iDRAC Service Module.... just remove it for the upgrade. You can install it later again. Same is true for iDRAC Tools and oMSA. We run vSphere 7.0u3 on our 12Gen poweredge Servers. Yes.... on   paper its not supported but run great. Regards,Jörg
Hardware: Dell PowerEdge R720Compatibility: VMWare 6.5 U3Running: VMWare 6.7 U3 Trying to upgrade to 7.0 U3 using Dell image with the following command: esxcli software profile update -d /vmfs/volumes/RAID5/ISO/ESXi/VMware-VMvisor-Installer-7.0.0.update03-20842708.x86_64-Dell_Customized-A10.zip -p DEL-ESXi-703_20842708-A10 --no-hardware-warning [DependencyError]VIB Dell_bootbank_dcism_3.5.1.ESXi6-1949 requires esx-version << 6.8.0, but the requirement cannot be satisfied within the ImageProfile. If I run the same command without "--no-hardware-warning", I get the following message:[HardwareError]Hardware precheck of profile DEL-ESXi-703_20842708-A10 failed with warnings:    I have also tried Dell's 7.0 (A03) & 7.0 Update01 (A05), even VMWare's 7.0U3g, 7.0U3j and 7.0U3k with no success. I guess I am not fully understanding the message if it's asking for VMware 6.8.0 or dcism_3.5.1??? When I checked the installed packages in my VMWare ESXi, I can see the following:Package Name: dcismVersion: 3.5.1 ESXi6-1949Vendor: DellInstalled on: Sunday, October 09, 2022, 16:13:31 -0400 I am assuming I can just remove this module. I know my specific hardware is not supported for VMWare 7.0, is there any workaround for this? I am assuming I can uninstall this as I don't use it any way. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
