ESXi driver / firmware compatibility matrix

IRM1 — Tue, 07 May 2019 12:05:25 GMT

We've installed the HP image of ESXi 6.7 on DL360s but I want to find out if there is a ESXi driver / firmware compatibility matrix to check firmware versions against the HP ESXi versions. Just a check to see if we need to upgrade to specific firmware versions to ensure stability.

Thanks for any help.

Thanks for the reply, that's very useful information.

I wondered if there was a compatibility matrix showing dependencies between Proliant Support Pack version and ESXi version. I was sure I recently read that the Proliant Support Pack I looked at added support for ESXi 6.7 U2 so I thought that implied there was a dependency between PSP and ESXi versions.

Is that the case, or am I making that up :)
