Upgrade HPE SimpliVity

[Cleber Zorzi]

Hello,

I have an HPE SimpliVity stretched cluster with 8 nodes (4 at each site) running the following versions:
OmniStack 4.1.0
SVTSP-2021_0110.02
vCenter Server Appliance 7.0.0d (build 16749653)
VMware vSphere ESXi 7.0.1d (build 17551050)

Is it possible to upgrade this environment directly to HPE SimpliVity version 6.3.0U1?

Or is an intermediate upgrade required?

I am referring to the attached chart.

Thanks.

Hello @Cleber Zorzi 

Based on the upgrade matrix, HPE SimpliVity 4.1.0 to 6.3.0U1 is marked as C (Compatible but not explicitly verified). This indicates that an intermediate SimpliVity upgrade may not be required.

However, the upgrade path is subject to the ESXi and firmware compatibility requirements for the target version, so these should be verified before proceeding with the upgrade.
