A & B.
As of vSphere 5.1 and VUM 5.1, VUM no longer supports scanning or upgrading ESXESXi 3.5
Therefore A cannot be correct. This question is old.
http://www.vmware.com/support/vsphere5/doc/vsphere-update-manager-51-release-notes.html.
For vSphere 5.0 (VUM 5.0), ESX/ESXi 3.5 is supported.
http://www.vmware.com/support/vsphere5/doc/vsphere-update-manager-50u1-release-notes.html
That should read “scan and remediate”, not scan and upgrade.
Update Manager can scan and remediate ESX/ESXi hosts, virtual machines, and virtual appliances
Host patching
ESX/ESXi 3.5
ESX/ESXi 4.x
ESXi 5.0.x
Host upgrades of ESX/ESXi 4.x to ESXi 5.0
Upgrades of VMware Tools and virtual machine hardware for virtual machines
Upgrades of virtual appliances
This clearly does not mention upgrading esx 3.5.
But since C and D are wrong.
Lol it clearly DOES mention esx 3.5!
You don’t upgrade vCenter Server. You build a new vCenter server and copy over the configuration to the new vCenter.
A and B must be correct.
Update Manager can support below components:
virtual machine kernel
service console
virtual machine hardware
virtual machine tool
guest operating systems for SP and patch releases
upgrading an ESX 4.x host to ESXi 5.x
Question doesn’t specify the version of VUM, does it?
Therefore A is right, if version is 5.0.
