Microsoft released [a patch](https://msrc.microsoft.com/update-guide/releaseNote/2023-Feb) this week for Windows Server 2022 that might cause some big problems in VMware environments. Per [VMware's KB90947](https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/90947):
|
||
|
|
> After installing Windows Server 2022 update KB5022842 (OS Build 20348.1547), guest OS can not boot up when virtual machine(s) configured with secure boot enabled running on vSphere ESXi 6.7 U2/U3 or vSphere ESXi 7.0.x.
|
||
|
|
>
|
||
|
|
> Currently there is no resolution for virtual machines running on vSphere ESXi 6.7 U2/U3 and vSphere ESXi 7.0.x. However the issue doesn't exist with virtual machines running on vSphere ESXi 8.0.x.
|

So yeah. That's, uh, *not great.*
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you've got any **Windows Server 2022** VMs with **Secure Boot** enabled on **ESXi 6.7/7.x**, you'll want to make sure they *do not* get **KB5022842** until this problem is resolved.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
I put together a quick PowerCLI query to help identify impacted VMs in my environment:
|
||
|
|
```powershell
|
||
|
|
$secureBoot2022VMs = foreach($datacenter in (Get-Datacenter)) {
|
||
|
|
$datacenter | Get-VM |
|
||
|
|
Where {$_.Guest.OsFullName -Match 'Microsoft Windows Server 2022' -And $_.ExtensionData.Config.BootOptions.EfiSecureBootEnabled} |
|
||
|
|
Select @{N="Datacenter";E={$datacenter.Name}},
|
||
|
|
Name, @{N="Running OS";E={$_.Guest.OsFullName}},
|
||
|
|
@{N="Secure Boot";E={$_.ExtensionData.Config.BootOptions.EfiSecureBootEnabled}},
|
||
|
|
PowerState
|
||
|
|
}
|
||
|
|
$secureBoot2022VMs | Export-Csv -NoTypeInformation -Path ./secureBoot2022VMs.csv
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Be careful out there!
