VMware ESX 4.0 Update 1(Build 208167) was released on 19 Nov 2009 and I did a patch update on 3 of my vSphere Dev Servers included of 1 ESX (build 164009) server and 2 ESXi (build 164009 & 171294) servers on Dell PE2950 today.

The Redhat Linux and Windows 2003 & 2008 Virtual Machines VMware tools upgraded successful and everything look goods after the Update 1 patched.
