VMware supports the following acceptance levels.

VMwareCertified

The VMwareCertified acceptance level has the most stringent requirements.

VIBs with this level go through thorough testing fully equivalent to VMware

in-house Quality Assurance testing for the same technology. Today, only

IOVP drivers are published at this level. VMware takes support calls for VIBs

with this acceptance level.

VMwareAccepted

VIBs with this acceptance level go through verification testing, but the tests

do not fully test every function of the software. The partner runs the tests

and VMware verifies the result. Today, CIM providers and PSA plugins are

among the VIBs published at this level. VMware directs support calls for

VIBs with this acceptance level to the partner's support organization.

PartnerSupported

VIBs with the PartnerSupported acceptance level are published by a partner

that VMware trusts. The partner performs all testing. VMware does not

verify the results. This level is used for a new or nonmainstream technology

that partners want to enable for VMware systems. Today, driver VIB

technologies such as Infiniband, ATAoE, and SSD are at this level with

nonstandard hardware drivers. VMware directs support calls for VIBs with

this acceptance level to the partner's support organization.

CommunitySupported

The Community Supported acceptance level is for VIBs created by

individuals or companies outside of VMware partner programs. VIBs at this

level have not gone through any VMware-approved testing program and are

not supported by VMware Technical Support or by a VMware partner.

Match a Host Acceptance Level with an Update Acceptance Level

You can change the host acceptance level to match the acceptance level for a VIB or image profile that you

want to install. The acceptance level of all VIBs on a host must be at least as high as the host acceptance

level.

Use this procedure to determine the acceptance levels of the host and the VIB or image profile to install, and

to change the acceptance level of the host, if necessary for the update.

When you specify a target server by using --server=server_name in the procedure, the specified server

prompts you for a user name and password. Other connection options, such as a configuration file or

session file, are supported. For a list of connection options, see Getting Started with vSphere Command-Line

Interfaces, or run esxcli --help at the vCLI command prompt.

Prerequisites

Install vCLI or deploy the vSphere Management Assistant (vMA) virtual machine. See Getting Started with

vSphere Command-Line Interfaces. For troubleshooting, run esxcli commands in the ESXi Shell.
