When a server generation transitions to â��Post-Production,â�� the firmware and drivers for that server generation are frozen, packaged together on a â��Post-Production SPP,â�� and released. Gen8 only Post-Production SPP that contains the firmware and drivers for all of Gen8 server models). Multiple server generation specific â��Post-Production SPPsâ�� that contain the firmware and drivers for a specific post-production server generation (e.g. Going forward, two types of SPPs will be released:Ī single â��Production SPPâ�� that contains the firmware and drivers for the all of the production server generations, and In order to reduce the frequency at which servers need to be updated, HPE is changing the packaging and delivery of the SPP. This post production SPP uses Smart Update Manager (SUM) as the deployment tool and contains updates for ProLiant Gen8 systems. The Service Pack for ProLiant (SPP) is a comprehensive systems software and firmware update solution, which is delivered as a single ISO image.
