The correct location should be /tmp/scratch/var/tmp. To create this directory, run this command from the ESXi host:
# mkdir -p /tmp/scratch/var/tmp
run # esxupdate update --bundle ./OM-SrvAdmin-Dell-Web-7.2.0-6945.VIB-ESX41i.zip Unpacking cross_oem-dell-openmanag.. ################################################ [100%] Installing packages :cross_oem-del.. ################################################ [100%] Running [cim-install.sh]...
