UCS mini firmware downgrade

[frank.r.luna1]

Is it possible to downgrade firmware packages from 3.0.2 back to 3.0.1? If not, are there alternatives for reconfiguring the chassis?

Hi Frank

Can you please explain, why you would like to downgrade ?

In principle it will work; you will loose features which are new in 3.0.2, and not available in 3.0.1 !

Yes, we have a client who has decided to load a bare metal OS of Linux that is not supported on the 3.0.2 code instead of a hypervisor. However, we already updated the code on the UCS chassis prior to his decision.

Did you check the appropriate interop matrix

I can hardly believe it ?
