More on the ESX Update 2 Expiration issue
Written by Damian Murdoch   
Wednesday, 13 August 2008

It appears that the expiration problems are not just limited to VMware ESX Server 3.5 Update 2.

There have been reports of Update 1 customers who are fully patched experiencing the same problem. It is assumed that these patches causing the issues have also been pulled from the VMware website but it is recommended to not apply any further patches until VMware confirms that the problem is now totally resolved.

This morning more detail arrived from VMware on the actual problem, a cut and paste of that email is below in the read more link.

ESX 3.5 Update 2 brings new features and a time bomb to your enterprise!
Written by Damian Murdoch   
Tuesday, 12 August 2008

ESX 3.5 Update 2 brought with it a raft of new features and innovations. A lot of which were well overdue, including full 10 gig support for storage traffic! But it appears to also have been released without having the time restriction removed when it lifecycled to release. The problem has been popping up all over the world and affecting all of the early adopters.

Read on for details of the problem, workaround, timeframes for resolution, and a statement from VMware on the problem.
