  • 1.  ArubaOS-Switch: 16.10, 16.09 and 16.08 Release Notes (new August 2020 releases + Summary)

    Posted Aug 24, 2020 07:29 PM

    Finally, finally and - again - finally. Thanks Aruba Publishing Team.

     

    For me at least, this is the along waited touch of the well known Aruba's publishing style on the niche world of Release Notes documents (who's still reading them?).

     

    Three redesigned Release Notes documents were published yesterday 24th August 2020 providing a sum primarily per software major release (e.g. 16.10, 16.09, 16.08) and secondarily also listing each switch series of all software versions' released enhancements, fixes and workarounds of 16.10, 16.09 and 16.08 software major versions:

     

    It's probably the end of the single Release Notes for each switch series era (a switch series [*] is equal to a software platform) and the beginning of the single Release Notes for each software major version era...or - if I've misunderstood the purpose of documentation team in releasing such of a docs - it's just a step in the right direction [**].

     

    [*] Currently, software development on 16.10, 16.09 and 16.08 major versions is done against KB (3810/5400R zl2), WB (2920), WC (2930F/2930M), YA/YB (2530) and YC (2540) software platforms (switch series).

     

    [**] Currently, document title, part number, edition and publication date - usually located on the front cover of the document - are lacking.

    Hi! you should start exploring the Aruba Support Portal at URL:

     

    https://asp.arubanetworks.com/

     

    Go to "Software & Documents" section's tab and then drill down by filtering against the switch series you are interested in.

     

    It should not be too difficult to collect all the information you need (software versions and documents).

    Thanks for you reply. I did try asp before posting. 

     

    Just not sure, where to find it. At least looking at 16.10 I get to RLN which don't contain end of development/support dates. 

     

    https://asp.arubanetworks.com/downloads/documents/RmlsZTpkNTU1YWEwMC1lNjdhLTExZWEtYmNjYi1lM2M2NmYwYmMyZTU%3D

     

    https://support.hpe.com/hpesc/public/docDisplay?docId=a00104961en_us

     

     should I be looking at another web/document rather than the RLN ?

    Mate, I never wrote that Release Notes contain reference about EoL/EoS/EoD milestones. (Software) Release Notes contain information about the release of Software versions, that's it.

     

    What you're looking for is information about HPE (Aruba is part of HPE) EoL/EoS found at https://techlibrary.hpe.com/us/en/networking/products/eos/index.aspx page.
