故障现象:
如何通过VUM安装Powerpath for vSphere5?
解决方案:
1、安装 VMware Update Manager(VUM),一般安装在vCenter服务器上,安装时指定vCenter的IP; 

安装之后确认插件处于启用状态; 
2、下载好PowerPath/VE for vSphere的安装包 
使用vSphere Client 登录vCenter,选中 主机-配置-存储器-设备,可以看到当前映射的LUN的所有者是NMP,说明正在使用vSphere自己的多路径管理软件; 
3、打开vSphere 主页,选择 Update Manager; 
4、切换到“配置”标签,然后点“导入修补程序”; 
5、选择之前下载好的安装包,vCenter会自己扫描; 

6、选中要安装的主机,切换到“Update Manager”标签; 
7、在“附加的基准”处右击点选“附加”; 8、点击“创建基准”; 
9、填写一个基准名称,然后基准类型选“主机扩展”; 
10、选中PowerPath的补丁包,然后点击向下箭头,将该补丁包添加进来; 

11、点击“完成”; 
12、勾选上我们刚才创建的基准,然后点“附加”; 
13、确认我们的主机已经在主机列表中,点击“修复”; 
14、点击“下一步”; 
15、勾选上PowerPath补丁; 
16、默认设置,然后点击“下一步”; 
17、默认设置、点击“下一步”; 
18、点击“完成” 开始安装补丁; 
19、从下面可以看到主机安装补丁的进程,全部安装完毕后,ESX主机会自动重启。 
显示修复已经完成 
20、再次查看映射LUN的所有者,已经变更成PowerPath,说明PowerPath安装成功。 
21、点击右下角的“管理路径“,可以对多路径进行管理。
