Synergy Custom SPP 2020.07.01 not named properly when imported into Composer Firmware Bundles

[PatrickLong]

I just downloaded the HPE_SYNERGY_CUSTOM_SPP_2020.07.01_Z7550-96923.ISO and uploaded it into my Composer's firmware bundle location.  *During* the file upload, the bundle does show up in Composer with the  Name, "HPE_Synergy_Custom_SPP_2020.07.01_Z7550-96923.iso" , however after the upload is complete and the file contents are enumerated,  The Name, Version, and Description fields do not show up with the same format as previous Synergy Custom firmware bundles.  In fact, the Name shows "Service Pack for ProLiant" which is somewhat misleading.  The Version format has changed to "SY-2020.07.1" which by the SY prefix I suppose is an indicator that this version is Synergy-specific? and the Description field appears to have come from the standard SPP for ProLiant Gen9/10 servers.  Can someone from HPE confirm that the changes to the bundle Name/Version/Description are by design?  Or is this something that slipped by QA with this release?  View the differences below during upload and after enumeration of contents:

This is intentional.  The upcoming Customer Notice of publication includes this

NOTE: After it is loaded into HPE OneView, the new firmware bundle will no longer identify itself as an HPE Synergy Custom SPP. The bundle will be identified as a "Service Pack for ProLiant."

Excellent - thank you Dan!

Odd, that.  I thought HPE had moved to a unified SPP after reading that title.  I tried booting a Proliant with that SPP and it yelled at me.  So "Service Pack for Proliant" means "Service Pack not for ProLiant."

rmay_bk  I agree, it seems an odd development in what has been to date a seemingly significant marketing investment in separating the Synergy branding from any connection whatsoever to the ProLiant name.  Who knows, maybe we'll be calling our Synergy compute modules 'blades' again before too long   Kidding, of course.

2020.07.02 calls itself "Service Pack for Synergy"
