what is the last firmwire for MD3000i ?

Hi,

We have two MD3000i, we updated one some weeks ago and now we want to update the second.

I downloaded the 07.35.39.62 (A12) firmware, released the july 14th.

I checked today to see if there are a new firmware, and the last firmware is the 07.35.38.60 (A11) version !?

Any idea why Dell removed the firmware released in july ?

thanks for any answers.

Hmmmm.    I actually downloaded the July release but have not installed it yet.

Even though it's not officially on the HCL,  I believe the July FW had some stuff in their critical to vSphere 5.0 compatibility?

 

I would like a Dell official response to your question as well.

 

We have 6 MD3000i's

They recalled the July update.  Bummer for you for sure....

The January release is the most current supported release.   I emailed Dell support about this yesterday.

Hello there, I too have downloaded and installed the latest Jul '11 release but no longer see it here.  I however, am

having a host access problem with the array  and so, the basics are first (Firmware and such).   As an aside, I must say

Dell has the most ambiguous way of doing things at times (*sigh)

Any, I too am wanting for a Dell rep to answer here.
