Which ProLiant Service Pack to download - quite confused
Hello everyone.
I like to keep our various ProLiant servers up-to-date with the latest HP ProLiant Service Packs. However, right now, I'm a little confused as to which ones I should install.
Here is how I'm understanding it, but please correct me if I'm wrong:
For G9 ang G10 servers, install 2017.07.1
For G8, G7, G6 or lower, install 2017.04.0
Is this correct? Is the 2017.07.1 only meant for G9 and G10? I could just use some guidance on what the latest service pack is for each generation right now...maybe someone could help?
Thank you in advance! I greatly appreciate the assistance!

Re: Which ProLiant Service Pack to download - quite confused
More details here, WRT SPPs:
- A single "Production SPP" that contains the firmware and drivers for the all of the production server generations.
- Multiple - server generation specific - "Post-Production SPPs" that contain the firmware and drivers for a specific post-production server generation (e.g. Gen8 only Post-Production SPP that contains the firmware and drivers for all of Gen8 server models).

Re: Which ProLiant Service Pack to download - quite confused
Okay, now there are post production service packs. I have to admit, and I apologize in advance...but I'm horribly confused.
Are Gen 8 and older considered to be "Post production servers?"
Can someone explain the difference between these service packs?
If I have a Gen 8 server, do I need to install the 2017.04.0 service pack and THEN the new post production service pack specific to Gen 8?
What do I need to install now for a Gen 9 or Gen 10 server?
From what I understand, the 2017.07.1 service pack is only for gen 9 and gen 10.....
I'm horribly confused. Is someone able to help me understand this? Thanks so much in advance for your help!

>> Are Gen 8 and older considered to be "Post production servers?"
Yes.
>> Can someone explain the difference between these service packs?
As said, PPGen8.0 is for Gen8 only, PPG7 for G7 only, SPP2017.07 for Gen9 + Gen10 only.
>> If I have a Gen 8 server, do I need to install the 2017.04.0 service pack and THEN the new post production service pack specific to Gen 8?
No. PPGen8.0/G7 is based on SPP2017.04+ some hotfixes
>> What do I need to install now for a Gen 9 or Gen 10 server?
SPP2017.07
>> From what I understand, the 2017.07.1 service pack is only for gen 9 and gen 10.....
Yes.
Hope this helps!
Regards
Torsten.
