I just installed Update 4 on my VMware ESX hosts. I tried using Update Manager but that didn't pan out to well..not sure why. Since I was limited on time I went with the old fashioned way and burned the ISO's to disk and booted off of that. The update was easy and straight forward. I was previously on Update 2. I was reading some horror stories about the update but all went as planned.
All my vm's needed to be upgraded to the latest VMware Tools..which required a reboot. That was the only drawback but it was quick, painless and during a maintenance window so no worries.
After the update I did use Update Manager to install several patches after the U4 install.
Good luck if you still haven't updated..make sure to read the release notes.
