OA and VC Firmware firmware compatibility
Hi,
Is there any strict rule to have both OA and Virtual Connect firmware on the same level. I mean, for example, firmware 3.70, does both have to be on same firmware level or can they be different?
I am planning to upgrade the OA firmware to 3.71 and VC firmware to 3.75? Will this have any issues?
Thanks,

Re: OA and VC Firmware firmware compatibility
Service Pack for ProLiant (SPP) addresses such questions. This contains BladeSystem firmware bundles that contain tested compatible release sets for the HP BladeSystem, including the OA, VC, and Blades.
Click here to download HP Service Pack for ProLiant.
Click here to view information about the BladeSystem Release sets.
By the way, the HP Service Pack for ProLiant version 2013.02.0 indicate that OA firmware version 3.71 to be 'Optional' as upgrade requirement and that VC firmware 3.75 to be 'Recommended' as upgrade requirement.

Re: OA and VC Firmware firmware compatibility
As there are no advisories indicating the contrary currently, there appears to be no issues reported. It may hence be implemented in a test environment before porting to production environment.
