Den Patch muss man gar nicht herunterladen, das kann man nämlich in der VCSA Admin Oberfläche machen. Dort nach Updates suchen und dann die "Pre-Update-Checks" ausführen.
Danach "Stage and Install" auswählen
Nach der Installation wird das VCenter neu gestartet und man muss sich neu einloggen
Die neue Versionsnummer ist da Liebe Grüsse Andres Bohren
