Firmware Bundle Names

RalphOV — Mon, 17 Jan 2022 01:54:03 GMT

Hi,

In the past when I uploaded a custom SPP the name in OV firmware Bundle would be the title of when I create the custom SPP.

But since the last SPP the name is always Custom Baseline "date of creation" therefore since I have uploaded one for G9 and another for G10 I have 2 Firmware bundle with the same name.

Is there any way to work around that and be able to choose any name I want?

I'm using OV 6.3, will update to 6.5 next week.

Thank you,

Unfortunately no, the name is generated whether you use OneView or HPE SUM to create a custom baseline. I suggest what we do in a lab is to use 1 day difference.

That could work but the solution still a workaround, HPE should fix what it broke so we can name it whatever we want.

Anyone have update to 6.4 or 6.5? i'd like to know if by any chance the fix it.

Yes, acknowledged. This remains unchanged through all current versions and the next. I'll forward your request to the firmware teams.

Certainly a support case would help with our tracking-- the official response will be "working as designed" since there is no defect; we can track the request internally. Cases are not directed to specific teams.

I am having this exact same issue. I too have Gen9 and Gen10 spp's. running Oneview 5.6.

By accident I found sort of a solution to this. Using your newly uploaded spp, create a custom firmware bundle. You'll have to give it a new name but it will stick. You also have to inject a hotfix into it. For us it was new ILO5 firmware. I would imagine you could use any .rpm firmware file that's not already part of the spp.
