Updating SPP on Gen9 devices

I have some servers here and they are running on old SPP versions. They are systems like ProLiant ML350 (BIOS HP P92, 27-12-2015) and DL380 (BIOS HP P89, 27-12-2015) and many others. These two are at least installed with HP SPP 2016.04.0.

Another ProLiant DL380 Gen9 is running the BIOS version HP P89, 13-9-2016, SPP unknown at the moment.

I just took a new server in production and installed SPP 2018.03.0 on that server. I do want to bring the other servers up-to-date. However, when I look at the HPE SPP page, under the tab Documentation there is a table named "SPP Update Compatibility". It does say that I only can update to 2018.03.0 from SPP 2017.10.1,2017.07.2 or 2017.04.0.

My question now is, what will be my update path from older SPP versions, like 2016.04.0 (or older, or newer).

a supported path assumes you are at a supported SPP level, this would be SPP 2017.04 or newer as of now.

However, no steps needed.
procedd with SPP2018.03 for Gen9 systems.
