Hi, you will upgrade the vCMP guest.

The guest needs to have the base installation image and the hotfix in /shared/images/ locally.

Installing both base and hotfix from host is available only for new vCMP guest deployment, afaik.

Btw, have a look at the following: 

tmsh list vcmp guest

Very likely you need to provide the initial hotfix as well in the vCMP host´s /shared/images/ directory to recover the system after an RMA.

Thanks, Stephan
