Proliant Support Pack 7.20?

[Steve Kadish]

Hi all,

I'm a little confused. I see a number of references in the documentation for SIM 4.2 to PSP 7.20. But the latest support pack on the HP web site is still 7.10A.

I also downloaded the image for the Proliant Essentials Management CD, which has among other things the System Management Homepage 2.0. Is the only difference between PSP 7.10A and PSP 7.20 the upgrade of the Homepage?

Thanks,

As always, the release of a new ProLiant Support Pack goes along with new server product introductions. Individual components can be revved, but usually to address some issue.

The updated "System Management Homepage" is an exception. The PSP 7.2 won't be coming out until the next scheduled ProLiant introduction, but the new SMH was an important part of the evolution of HP SIM and we wanted to get it out there without waiting. You'll find that the management CD ISO image that you can download is version 7.2.

David,

Thanks for clearing that up. One more question - is the new System Management Homepage incompatible with SIM 4.1 because of the way that it handles the login accounts?

Thanks,

Steve,

Did you get an answer to your 2nd question? I'm finding some issues with rolling out SP 7.20 and running SIM 4.1.

Hi Simon,

We actually have been on SIM 4.2 for quite a while, and I haven't had any problems with the new SMH. I should have closed this ticket. Good luck with your issues!
