Upgrading to ESXi 5.1U1 skips all VIBs

[levak]

Hello!

Today I wanted to upgrade my ESXi 5.1 to 5.1Update1.

I used the command

esxcli software profile update -d https://hostupdate.vmware.com/software/VUM/PRODUCTION/main/vmw-depot-index.xml -p ESXi-5.1.0-20130402001-standard

to download and start the update procedure, but after some time, I get the summary which says nothing was install, nothing was removed and all VIBs were skipped:

Update Result
   Message: Dryrun only, host not changed. The following installers will be applied: []
   Reboot Required: false
   VIBs Installed:
   VIBs Removed:
   VIBs Skipped: VMware_bootbank_ata-pata-amd_0.3.10-3vmw.510.0.0.799733, VMware_bootbank....

My current profile is an updated 5.1:

(Updated) ESXi-5.1.0-799733-standard
Name: (Updated) ESXi-5.1.0-799733-standard
Vendor: hyper

Description:

2013-02-13T00:38:43.350798+00:00: The following VIBs are
installed:
esx-base 5.1.0-0.9.914609
tools-light 5.1.0-0.9.914609
----------
The general availability release of VMware ESXi Server 5.1.0
brings whole new levels of virtualization performance to
datacenters and enterprises.

As far as I was looking at VIBs version numbers, there are definetly newer packages in the new update, but it just doesn't want to update.

What am I doing wrong?

I have the same issue. Any fix?

Nop, I haven't found any I did stop searching soon, since everything works and it not necessary at the moment. Please let me know if you find anything.

What if you import the VIB in the VI client? Does that work? (Tired and running on hardly any sleep.)
