Refer to the following advisory for VMware Driver Installation:
https://support.hpe.com/hpsc/doc/public/display?docId=emr_na-a00045994en_us

  • VMware 6.7 Limitations for this Synergy Software Release:
    • HPE Customized ESXi Image vSphere 6.7 does not include Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) support.
      • When deployed, compute connectivity to FC storage via HPE VC SE Synergy 40GB F8 Module is not supported

HPE Synergy Custom SPP 2018.06.20180709 – July 2018
Replaces HPE Synergy Custom SPP 2018.06.20180619 to provide latest security fixes for Gen9 and Gen10 Compute Modules and address upgrade issues with HPE Synergy 10Gb Interconnect Link Module (10Gb ILM):

IF ‘HPE Synergy 10Gb Interconnect Link Module (10Gb ILM)’ downlink ports connected via CXP-AOC cables do not come up and/or remain “unlinked” after a ‘Logical Interconnect’ firmware update in a multi-enclosure Virtual Connect configuration, THEN perform a ‘Reset’ of 10Gb ILM from HPE Synergy Composer to recover

  • For Compute module component release notes, please reference Service Pack for ProLiant 2018.06.0

  • HPE Synergy Frame Link Module 2.02.03
    Fixed an issue where, in very rare cases, unexpected delays in the initialization of a frame link module (FLM) during the update of FLM firmware could cause the loss of HPE Synergy Image Streamer redundancy. When this issue occurs the health status of HPE Synergy Image Streamers is degraded which can prevent the successful firmware update of other frame link modules in the affected Logical Enclosure (LE). Although extremely unlikely, this can also potentially result in compute module(s) in the affected LE losing access to their boot image being hosted by the impacted HPE Synergy Image Streamers.
  • HPE Synergy 10Gb Interconnect Link Module – version 1.16
    IF ‘HPE Synergy 10Gb Interconnect Link Module (10Gb ILM)’ downlink ports connected via CXP-AOC cables do not come up and/or remain “unlinked” after a ‘Logical Interconnect’ firmware update in a multi-enclosure Virtual Connect configuration, THEN perform a ‘Reset’ of 10Gb ILM from HPE Synergy Composer to recover.

  • VMware 6.7 Limitations for this Synergy Software Release:
    • HPE Customized ESXi Image vSphere 6.7 does not include Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) support.
      • When deployed, compute connectivity to FC storage via HPE VC SE Synergy 40GB F8 Module is not supported
    • HPE Synergy Image Streamer is not supported

HPE Synergy Custom SPP 2018.06.20180709 – July 2018
Replaces HPE Synergy Custom SPP 2018.06.20180619 to provide latest security fixes for Gen9 and Gen10 Compute Modules and address upgrade issues with HPE Synergy 10Gb Interconnect Link Module (10Gb ILM).

  • Contains new security fixes for Gen9 and Gen10 Compute modules

  • HPE Synergy Frame Link Module 2.02.03
    Fixed an issue where, in very rare cases, unexpected delays in the initialization of a frame link module (FLM) during the update of FLM firmware could cause the loss of HPE Synergy Image Streamer redundancy. When this issue occurs the health status of HPE Synergy Image Streamers is degraded which can prevent the successful firmware update of other frame link modules in the affected Logical Enclosure (LE). Although extremely unlikely, this can also potentially result in compute module(s) in the affected LE losing access to their boot image being hosted by the impacted HPE Synergy Image Streamers.
  • HPE Synergy 10Gb Interconnect Link Module – version 1.16
    IF ‘HPE Synergy 10Gb Interconnect Link Module (10Gb ILM)’ downlink ports connected via CXP-AOC cables do not come up and/or remain “unlinked” after a ‘Logical Interconnect’ firmware update in a multi-enclosure Virtual Connect configuration, THEN perform a ‘Reset’ of 10Gb ILM from HPE Synergy Composer to recover.

  • HPE Synergy Frame Link Module version 2.02.03
    Fixed an issue where, in very rare cases, unexpected delays in the initialization of a frame link module (FLM) during the update of FLM firmware could cause the loss of HPE Synergy Image Streamer redundancy. When this issue occurs the health status of HPE Synergy Image Streamers is degraded which can prevent the successful firmware update of other frame link modules in the affected Logical Enclosure (LE). Although extremely unlikely, this can also potentially result in compute module(s) in the affected LE losing access to their boot image being hosted by the impacted HPE Synergy Image Streamers.
  • HPE Synergy 10Gb Interconnect Link Module – version 1.16

    • Customer Advisory:
      HPE Synergy - Certain ToR Switches With LLDP Traffic May Cause Instability of the HPE Synergy Frame Link Module: https://support.hpe.com/hpsc/doc/public/display?docId=emr_na-a00039981en_us
    • The Frame Link Module would incorrectly respond to ARP requests for 192.168.10.1
    • Several security issues were addressed.
    • Fixed an issue where, in very rare cases, unexpected delays in the initialization of a frame link module (FLM) during the update of FLM firmware could cause the loss of HPE Synergy Image Streamer redundancy. When this issue occurs the health status of HPE Synergy Image Streamers is degraded which can prevent the successful firmware update of other frame link modules in the affected Logical Enclosure (LE). Although extremely unlikely, this can also potentially result in compute module(s) in the affected LE losing access to their boot image being hosted by the impacted HPE Synergy Image Streamers
  • HPE Synergy 10Gb Pass Thru Module Firmware 1.15
    Firmware 1.15 update delivers fix for an issue wherein the NIC on server port did not stay “linked” after Fiber cable was unplugged.
