Topic Name : Installation and Upgrade Script Commands

Publication Name : VMware ESXi Upgrade

Product/Version : VMware vSphere/6.7

Question :

Please provide more details on those parameters. From the documentation it's unclear that those parameters have to be the last parameters set in a ks.cfg file. The reason for this seems to be that there is no script limiter. Thus, when executing the kickstart file and comming across a %pre, %post or %firstboot tag everything after that will be executed with the given %pre, %post or %firstboot interpreter. the interpreter only then will switch back to kickstart when it again sees another %pre, %post or %firstboot line.
