Starting from 8.0 Update 3, the vSphere Lifecycle Manager downloads updates for ESXi hosts by a HTTPS connection to the vCenter instance on port 9087. If you do not open port 9087 in your firewall between ESXi hosts and vCenter, you might see compliance check errors. For example, in the lifecycle.log you see messages such as: <Timestamp> In(14) lifecycle[2112988]: Downloader:373 Opening https://<VC-FQDN>:9087/vum/repository/hostupdate/__micro-depot__vendor-DEL__DEL-ESXi-8.0-Addon-cumulative_metadata__index__.xml for download <Timestamp> Wa(12) lifecycle[2112988]: Downloader:210 Download failed: <urlopen error timed out>, 9 retry left... In addition, vSphere HA might fail to start.
Open port 9087 in your firewall between ESXi hosts and vCenter.
