These new definitions classify code as Active, Inactive, and Controlled. Detailed descriptions and support implications for these terms are in the HPE MSA Storage - Product Firmware, Software Definitions, and Support Policy document, referenced below. HPE recommends customers stay on active versions of firmware and software. If systems are running inactive code, customers face increased risk due to exposure to known (and unknown) issues. Should customers experience issues while running inactive code, HPE Services will work with the customer to upgrade to an active version of firmware and software. Prior to the upgrade, HPE Services will attempt to confirm the likelihood of the issue being resolved, based on symptoms matching known issues. Use of the HPE Storage engineering elevation processes will be restricted until affected systems are updated to active code. NOTE : More than one version of code can be considered active at any given time. HPE recommends customers stay on active versions of code.
