Hey all
I've been racking my brains as to figuring out where VUM downloads gets its patches from. I've got it configured OK but still cannot download the patches. I keep getting the following
INFO - [updateDownloader, 219] starting re-downloading updates...
INFO - [UMDSHelper, 335] Version1.txt:Min: 40 Version1.txt:Current :45
INFO - [hostUpdateDownloader, 464] Re-downloading metadata and packages for ESX 3x updates

INFO - [vibDownloaderImpl, 398] VIB download successful
The entries I see in the 'downloadconfig.xml' file are the following : (are these the entries because I've tried to connect to these and nothing happens ?!?!?)
<ESX3xUpdateUrl>https://www.vmware.com/PatchManagementSystem/patchmanagement</ESX3xUpdateUrl>
<ESX4xUpdateUrl>https://hostupdate.vmware.com/software/VUM/PRODUCTION/index.xml</ESX4xUpdateUrl>
I know this has 'possibly' been answered before but cannot find the actual web link so can hand to our 'firewall' team. Have checked the UMDS repository, it created the folders ok but still doesn't DL any patches ??!? If any one can help it would be greatly appreciated.
thanks in advance
