Hi,
I'm getting the following error when running the below command:
[root@esxi:~] /usr/lib/vmware/vm-support/bin/swfw.sh
Software and Firmware versioning info from CIM Providers.
error: enumInstances No data received from server
[root@esxi:~] vmware -vl
VMware ESXi 6.5.0 build-5310538
VMware ESXi 6.5.0 GA
I was using the command to see the firmware versions of the server components. It was working fine, then I have updated the HP Smart Array P440ar firmware, rebooted the host (twice), and the same command which was working before is now giving me this error.
The local datastore is accessible, so I believe the firmware upgrade went well, but I'm not sure if it is related to this problem or not.
Googling for the error message did not return any relevant results.
Any hints what might be wrong?
Thanks a lot!
