The install, upgrade, and installorupgrade installation script commands require the use of disk device names.

Note
When you use a scripted upgrade to upgrade from ESX 4.x to ESXi 5.0, the MPX and VML disk names change, which might cause the upgrade to fail. To avoid this problem, use Network Address Authority Identifiers (NAA IDs) for the disk device instead of MPX and VML disk names.
