I was just about to write the same :smile:

Let’s hope that this one will be finally stable and not introduce any new issues or surprises. I would still wait a few weeks and see how it goes

Just wanted post this information! Great performance @victorwu :grinning:

When will the version be officially supported by Veeam ? :eyes:

I assume Anton Gostev will mention this in his next newsletter.

In theory it is already supported as U3 has been supported since 11a. Minor updates normally don’t get revalidated by Veeam and are automatically supported. Though in this case I would still not rush and update in the next days.

Hopefully the USB NIC Fling supports this otherwise I need to wait as I use it now on 7u2 on my hosts.  Will test today upgrading VC and check the fling site.

Hoping it doesn't generate more PSOD like 7.0 U3b...

Hey! Just wanted to share that Log4j vulnerabilities are available for vCenter 6.5 and 6.7.

 

vCenter 6.5 U3s: https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMware-vSphere/6.5/rn/vsphere-vcenter-server-65u3s-release-notes.html

vCenter 6.7 U3q: https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMware-vSphere/6.7/rn/vsphere-vcenter-server-67u3q-release-notes.html

 

These releases support upgrading to 7.0 U3c btw despite being made available after 7.0 U3c was released.

Nice to see these patches come out too along with 7.0.
