Future Firmware\Driver Release Sets Roadmap

Kav9 — Wed, 04 Jan 2012 03:48:04 GMT

Is there a roadmap or matrix for future release sets of firmware\drivers for HP BladeSystem?

Something that includes proposed release dates and revision numbers.

This would be handy for planning firmware upgrades throughout the year.

Cheers.

I don't think you will see anything other than "new release is coming soon ..." ...

Hi,

Normally HP will release 3 or 4 SPP release sets per year. Notation used is always year.month.sequential number of release... HP will support the 3 latest releases. This means that you will need to organise patch rounds at least once a year...
