Once the above completes reboot your host by typing: reboot. esxcli software vib update -d /vmfs/volumes/ DATASTORE/update-from-esxi6.5-6.5_update01.zip
Type the following command, replace “DATASTORE” with the name of your datastore you uploaded the update-from-esxi6.5-6.5_update01.zip file to. SSH into your host using PuTTY or other client/terminal. Now place the host you want to upgrade into Maintenance Mode. Upload the update-from-esxi6.5-6.5_update01.zip file to a datastore accessible by the host. Download the ESXi 6.5 Update 1 offline bundle zip file. Great when you have more than just a couple hosts or limited bandwidth.
