OV4VC 11.1 (Nov 2022) is missing as download

[pirx]

I just don't get it. Now, after weeks, HPE finally releases OV4VC. But then the files are missing. Latest version to download is still the one from January. Other version for vROPs etc were uddated too and they are available. This is just a joke, right?

Sometimes product release announcements are not in perfect synchronization with the new bits flowing through the distribution channels to the download locations.  I would check again at the end of the day or tomorrow. - based on previous experience I'm confident the file will make it's way through the proper distribution channels to appear on the My HPE Software Center in fairly short order.

The current Nov 2022 release is 11.0. The reference to 11.1 is a mistake. We will get the download page corrected.

Well, I don't care much about the version number, but I'd be happy if the download would be available soon. And I then can finally start using vLCM with OV4VC and 2022.09 SPP.

- SPP 2022.09 was released in September, since then OV4VC 2022-01 does not work with new SPP

- OV 8 was already released and is also not working with OV4VC 2022-01 

So maybe HPE should start checking dependencies and release products in the right order. And if something is published on a webpage, I simply expect that I'm then able to download it there. If there is some syncing to be done in the background.... I don't care, it's HPE's job to care about this before the release is on the web page.

I'm really frustrated as I've so much overhead with the HPE software/tools/webpages since we added HPE as second vendor, much more than with any other vendor. And let's not start talking about the mess with Support Center. missing contracts, missing assets, user group not able to see devices where they have permissions. 

I really like HPE hardware, but everything else gives me a headach!

Pirx,

You are not alone in your frustations with HPE software.  I feel this pain and have been holding off doing any updates as we finally have OV4VC, OV and VCLM all working on the current level.

Another week has passed, version number is still wrong and OV4V download also not available.

<full frustration mode on>HPE really cares about their customers and takes them serious</>

Massiv progress! HPE changed the month for the not existing download from Nov to Dec. That is really helpful. I've also contacted our HPE sales contacts, but this seems to be a tought one. Just bad timing for HPE as our OV POC ends today and with the SPP 2022.09 + OV + OV4VC + OV 8 disaster there is not much on the plus side.
