GitHub Enterprise Server and ESXi 8.0 support

VMware ESXi 8.0 hypervisor support is now available for GitHub Enterprise Server (GHES) 3.16.0, 3.15.4, 3.14.9, 3.13.12, and later. Until now, GHES was supported on ESXi versions 5.5 to 7.0. However, ESXi 7.0 is reaching the end of general support by October 2025.

If your GHES installation is on VMware ESXi 7.x or an earlier version, you can now use the ESXi 8.0 hypervisor. For more information about installing GHES on VMware, see install on VMware.
