Re: Spectre and Meltdown
OK so can I assume you are using sarcasm? Your statement is kind of ridiculous, servers and infrastructure replacement isn't quite the same as sheeple jonesing the latest iPhone. The amount of G6 and G7 kit still in service in IT/IS departments is enormous. Even when you replace critical performance components and servers most IT departments will frequently re-purpose for lower performance requirements and cold type storage. That's why you can still buy HP Carepacks for G7 gear and I suspect you could probably find carepacks for G6 kit too.
Please put me down for notification of G6 and G7 mitigation of the Spectre vulnerability for BIOS ROM updates please.

Re: Spectre and Meltdown
Did everyone see that the Gen9 ROMs have been pulled?

Re: Spectre and Meltdown
Perfect !
So now we have Dell pulling back their updates, HPE pulling back their G9 updates ( G8 still under investigation), and no news from HPE on Gen 7 (coordinating with HPE TAM on our end ). Cisco on their hand have played safe, no updates till 18th Feb 2018 !
We have hundreds of Gen 7 servers in production !!
And ideally speaking, Gen 7 was retired on 30th April 2013 - so the support with regard to critical patches should be entertained till 30th April 2018 ... no ?!

Re: Spectre and Meltdown
If HP is unable to patch, opts not to patch or is waiting on updates from Intel this needs to be listed in the CUSTOMER BULLETIN.

Re: Spectre and Meltdown
Hello, we updated three DL360 Gen9 with latest 2.54 BIOS. Now Intel and HP say this BIOS (microcode) is buggy. How can we revert to 2.52? We cannot get it since BIOS 2.52 is not available for free download while 2.54 was.

Re: Spectre and Meltdown
HPE does not say what to do if you already have this version ...
however, check what version your backup ROM has and consider to revert.
Hope this helps!
Regards
Torsten.
