Guidelines
Important:
Read these guidelines before installing or upgrading firmware on your HP XC system components.
• Never downgrade to an older version of firmware unless you are specifically instructed to do so by the
HP XC Support team.
• This document clearly lists newer versions of the firmware that are known to be incompatible (that is,
not backwards compatible). Incompatible versions are highlighted in bold font. Do not install these
known incompatible firmware versions because unexpected system behavior might occur.
• There is always the possibility that a regression in functionality is introduced in a firmware version. It
is possible that the regression could cause anomalies in XC operation. Report regressions in XC operation
that result from firmware upgrades to the HP XC support team:

• Contact the HP XC Support team if you are not sure what to do regarding firmware versions.
