Description
Experience Level: Expert
General information for the business: We are a payments business
Industry: Internet/Software
Kind of support: Software
Description of support work: Introduction
Our production environment is running from two ESXi hosts configured both for running virtual machines and a VSA cluster. There is additionally a separate Linux VSA cluster manager server.
We have a requirement to fully patch the hosts and the VSA cluster such that they can pass PCI DSS 3.1 compliance requirements, close any security holes and so that the running version is supportable as per VMware’s product lifecycle matrix.
These hosts are not currently under a VMware support agreement.
Key Information
• ESXi host version: 5.1.0
• VSA version: 5.1.3.0
Objectives
1. Upgrade VSA cluster to latest version.
2. Verify integrity of VSA system & confirm VSA manager roles.
3. Fully patch ESXi hosts.
4. Decommission vSphere server in preparation for it to be rebuilt.
5. Advise on health of the ESX cluster & make recommendations.
Notes
This is a production system and any downtime must be carefully coordinated. The system is also within PCI scope and as such strict change control procedures apply.
