Overview

In earlier releases of vCenter Server you could configure independent proxy settings for vCenter Server and vSphere Update Manager. After an upgrade to vSphere 7.0, vSphere Update Manager service becomes part of the vSphere Lifecycle Manager service. For the vSphere Lifecycle Manager service, the proxy settings are configured from the vCenter Server appliance settings. If you had configured Update Manager to download patch updates from the Internet through a proxy server but the vCenter Server appliance had no proxy setting configuration, after a vCenter Server upgrade to version 7.0, the vSphere Lifecycle Manager fails to connect to the VMware depot and is unable to download patches or updates.

Workaround

Log in to the vCenter Server Appliance Management Interface, https:// vcenter-server-appliance-FQDN-or-IP-address :5480, to configure proxy settings for the vCenter Server appliance and enable vSphere Lifecycle Manager to use proxy.
