With the vSphere 6.X coming to the end of its lifecycle from the 15th October 2022, will your business be able to operate without new hardware support, server/client/guest OS updates, bug fixes or security patches? 

The End of General Support for vSphere 6.0 is March 12, 2020. To maintain your full level of Support and Subscription Services, VMware recommends upgrading to vSphere 6.5 or vSphere 6.7. VMware has extended the general support for vSphere 6.5 to a full six years from date of release, which means the general support for vSphere 6.5 will end on October 15, 2022. The End of General support for vSphere 6.7 will be on October 15, 2022. 

 Technical Guidance for vSphere 6.0 is available until March 12, 2022 primarily through the self-help portal. During the Technical Guidance phase, VMware does not offer new hardware support, server/client/guest OS updates, new security patches or bug fixes unless otherwise noted. For more information, visit VMware Lifecycle Support Phases.
