Is anyone maintaining the VMware Recipe site?

This is a great site, relied on by many:

http://vibsdepot.hpe.com/hpq/recipes/

but IMHO poor posting order and lack of timely archiving have lead to misleading support responses.

Support have quoting that the more recent the file the more current it is which is currently not true, plus updates reference SPP that are over 12 months old and so are surely out of support. I hope someone can clarify this.

Hi Dave,

HPE VMware Recipe's are not updated within HPE and will no longer be updated and you need to refer the SPP release notes if you want to more info on updating driver and firmware for VMware and Latest SPP is the way to go ..

hi Dave,

In addition: the best place for the custom ISO's is now as well the VMware site: https://my.vmware.com/web/vmware/details?productId=614&downloadGroup=OEM-ESXI65U1-HPE

together with our SPP's as a matched recipe on our www.hpe.com/info/spp site.

I hope this helps in addition?

Best regards, Jeroen

Vinny -- are you sure about that?  It sure looks like the Receipes are being updated.  The most recent one (named just 'HPE-VMware-Recipe.pdf' ) was updated in November when the most recent HPE customized iso was released.

FYI: The HPE VMware Recipe document has been updated to March 2018. It is available here:
