Thanks for the quick response. The retired products would be getting the security-relevant updates without requiring any extended support licenses right?

Also, will the security updates be notified via the 'Hewlett Packard Enterprise Support Center - Security Bulletins' ?

Yes, the retired products would be getting the security-relevant updates on HPE Security Bulletins.

Hi,

as an HP employee you might answer me this question ... why is there no single list with all the EOSL?

Could work like this:
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/lifecycle/search/13615

The internet search is full of people searching for EOSL dates for HPE products and there are plenty sites out there that display true and false dates.

How about creating a SPOEOSLK ?

regards
Stephan

[AmRa]

Hi Stephan,

We have posted your query to our backend team regarding single list with all the EOSL for HPE ProLiant server.

We will keep you posted as soon as get update from them.

[Stephan G]

Hi Amra,

That would be great. Even better if all (business) products would show up there.

I was searching for end of life of a HP SN3000B - still not found and Brocade is also not helping. I do not know why it is kept such a big secret at HPE.

[AmRa]

Please refer customer notice with reference to HPE StoreFabric B-series Switches - Device End of Support (EOS) Policy Updated,
https://support.hpe.com/hpesc/public/docDisplay?docLocale=en_US&docId=emr_na-a00090361en_us

[Stephan G]

I already found that. But it refers to Brocade where i cannot find the SN3000B switch.
Asked the support there - no answer - just redirecting me to sites i already found.

[Stephan G]

And while i'm on it... yesterday a colleague and me were searching which transceiver is matching which switch.

Aruba Networks - 4 PDFs found by Google - the highest was the oldest one. We had to type in year numbers until we found the recent one. 

Extreme - A Web App
https://optics.extremenetworks.com/EXOS/

Mhh which one will i prefer?

Hi!
The END OF SERVICE LIFE DATE of the HPE ProLiant DL360 Gen9 server, published on the Riverstone Technology website, is 31.10.2023.
It's true?

[KevinSpringPM]

No that's not accurate. That website is hilariously incorrect. You'll need to contact HPE support directly for EOSL and supportability info, but I can tell you that website is very wrong.

[KevinSpringPM]

We also have a web app! Agreed that searching for docs is not a good experience. This app lets you select your switch and displays the compatible options such as transceivers, DACs, redundant power supplies, etc-

[MichaelV]

The answer is incorect; HP does not state anywhere there is End of support for Proliant BL460c Gen8 servers.;

I confirmed that with HP support directly contacling the.

[barisberk]

And yet one of your EMPLOYEES refer to that website as a source of information :

https://community.hpe.com/t5/ProLiant-Servers-ML-DL-SL/HPE-ML350-GEN9-End-of-Service-Life-EOSL-Date/td-p/7147880#.Yfj1qPgo-Mo

And apparently i have to pay to get such information from live support.

HP has set a new low for a standart.

EOSL

Two years ago in this thread - someone asked for a unified proliant end of service page from HPE. Why are we still waiting

Do you realise HOW MANY HPE SERVERS I CAN SELL - if I can evidence the esiting ones are out of support??

I've got client's googling the dates themselves, and coming up with all sorts of dates from 'wonky' sites that are NOT HPE!!

</P>

[Datamorten]

Hello,

I second this. Yet another year have passed, and we still do not have any unified end of life EOL / End of Service EOS / End of Support Life EOSL page from HPE. 

This would be a very usefull resource, as we do not get enough information on the product bulletin site. 

Regards from Norway

[Harshitha_K]
