VMware Update Manager (VUM) is the module we’ll use to create the Baseline and remediate the vSphere Hosts with the latest patches.

How to install latest VMware vSphere patches In this article we are going to see this vSphere update process including the changes to an existing custom Baseline. This is interesting because it is possible to create a Baseline Group which couples a specific Host version with the very latest vSphere patches. For example since we have already upgraded the Host to version 6.7 and considering the vSphere patches are cumulative there is no need to install all of them but just the latest ones. The idea is to create custom Baseline with specific vSphere patches. By default the VMware Update Manager is already shipping with 2 default Baselines which cover both critical and non-critical patches. Similarly to what we have already seen for the vSphere Hosts upgrade, it’s a matter of creating a new Baseline for patches.
