This product version obsolescence is covered by version 1.1 of the Release & Support policy for HPE Security products. Definitions of terms are provided by the product version obsolescence guidelines documented at hpe.com/software/support-lifecycle.

Product Support

Product Support is the reactive engagement of regional support resources (Support Center) and division support resources (Lab), in accordance with your purchased support plan, for the resolution of product defects, plus product enhancements for a specific product version. This includes investigation of newly reported defects and if appropriate, development of defect fixes and making these available for customers via patches. The HPE product teams (Lab) will review and either approve or deny requests for defect fixes and enhancements (including additional support for newly-released operating system versions).

While HPE investigates all problems and issues raised for products covered under Product Support, customers may be required to install the most current version or patches as part of the troubleshooting process.

Version Maturity may apply to specific versions of HPE products. Version Maturity means that, for a specific product version, no further enhancements or changes to functionality is planned, nor are any further platform refreshes planned in order to update that product version to support current or future operating systems, operating system versions or hardware platforms.

End-of-SupportDate

End-of-Support Date is the last date Software maintenance, installation and configuration assistance, and other standard support services will be accepted for the specified product release (as specified by Major and Minor version numbering). EOS also means the last date Software Change Requests (SCRs) will be accepted for a specified Version of a Product. After the EOS date, all SCRs will be planned for future versions, as applicable. Current patches for the version of the HPE reaching EOS will remain available for electronic download for a reasonable period of time.
