End of Factory Support

[H_16]

I am about to install 11.23 on my N4000-44 servers. I have noticed "End of Sales" & "End of Factory Support"

will HP still support this version up to the "End of Factory Support" date ?!

Hi, you cannot install 11.23 on N4000 server. BR,

Hi,

See here to know the end of support for all versions.

That is the document I was referring to....

SO does that mean HP will support up until end of factory support ?!

Shalom,

HP will provide support, software and hardware contracts up to the end of life date.

The US Navy and I'm sure other large organizations have even been able to get support beyond life date, but most normal business can not afford that.

A) 11i v1 (B.11.11) is the latest that will run on an N4000. See page 16 of
http://h20338.www2.hp.com/hpux11i/downloads/public_hp-ux_systems_support.pdf

B) 11i v1 reaches "end of sales" 12/30/2009 and "end of support" 12/30/2013.

c) "end of support" date is exactly that, standard support offerings will no longer be available after that date

if you want (or need) a newer release of the OS for some reason, you will need later hardware
