Explanation
The acceptance level of all VIBs on a host must be at least as high as the host acceptance level. For example, if the host acceptance level is VMware Accepted, you can install VIBs with acceptance levels of VMware Certified and VMware Accepted, but you cannot install VIBs with acceptance levels of Partner Supported or Community Supported. To install a VIB with a less restrictive acceptance level than that of the host, you can change the acceptance level of the host by using the vSphere Client or by running esxcli software acceptance commands. Setting host acceptance levels is a best practice that allows you to specify which VIBs can be installed on a host and used with an image profile, and the level of support you can expect for a VIB. For example, a Community Supported VIB might not be recommended for an ESXi server in a production environment. 50/index.jsp?topic=%2Fcom.vmware.vsphere.upgrade.doc_50%2FGUID-27BBBAB8-01EA- 4238-8140-1C3C3EFC0AA6.html
