Initial: Initial release of the solution. ========================================================================== ========================================================================== Version 14.2.537.0, Build ID [21B], Severity [Critical] Release Date [ August 10,2023 ] ========================================================================== -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.0 Overview -------------------------------------------------------------------------- OS Versions supported o Windows 2016 o Windows 2019 o Windows 10(limited support) o Windows 2022 o Windows 11(limited support) Supported configurations can be found on the Lenovo Operating System Interoperability Guide at the following website: https://lenovopress.com/osig -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2.0 Prerequisites and dependencies -------------------------------------------------------------------------- - Certain features/function are co-dependent with either Brocade Switch firmware and/or Storage Target device firmware. Consult your Lenovo Technical Sales team for details on such features. Examples: NVMe over Fibre Channel, Trunking (aka Port Aggregation) - For customers who may have end-of-life HBAs in a configuration alongside more contemporary HBAs, the OOB driver for the newer HBA can be used with the legacy HBA. Such support ends concurrent with the end of support for the legacy HBA. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 3.0 Security Fixes -------------------------------------------------------------------------- - Addressed several vulnerabiilities in the Emulex Hardware Manager application (no issues with the driver itself) -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 4.0 Other Fixes -------------------------------------------------------------------------- - None -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 5.0 Enhancements -------------------------------------------------------------------------- - Incremental Interoperability: - Windows 10 (limited support) - Windows 11 (limited support) -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 6.0 Other Changes -------------------------------------------------------------------------- - None -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 7.0 Limitations -------------------------------------------------------------------------- - None =============================================================================== Device Driver Version: 14.0.326.8 Supported On: Lenovo ThinkSystem Rack and Flex Problems Fixed: - None Incremental Interoperability: - Windows 2022 - 4XC7A76498 - ThinkSystem Emulex LPe35000 32Gb 1-Port PCIe Fibre Channel Adapter - PCI SSDID: F418 - 4XC7A76525 - ThinkSystem Emulex LPe35002 32Gb 2-Port PCIe Fibre Channel Adapter - PCI SSDID: F419 - 4XC7A77485 - ThinkSystem Emulex LPe36002 64Gb 2-Port PCIe Fibre Channel Adapter - PCI SSDID: F421) - The following products are not supported with this release - 7ZT7A00517 - Emulex LPe32000-M2-L PCIe 32Gb 1-Port SFP+ Fibre Channel Adapter - PCI SSDID: E331 - 7ZT7A00519 - Emulex LPe32002-M2-L PCIe 32Gb 2-Port SFP+ Fibre Channel Adapter - PCI SSDID: E330 - 7ZT7A00521 - Emulex LPm16002B-L Mezz 16Gb 2-Port Fibre Channel Adapter PCI SSDID: E288 - 7ZT7A00522 - Emulex LPm16004B-L Mezz 16Gb 4-Port Fibre Channel Adapter PCI SSDID: E289 Known Issues: - None =============================================================================== Device Driver Version: 12.8.497.26 Supported On: Lenovo ThinkSystem Rack and Flex Problems Fixed: - None Incremental Interoperability: - Lenovo Intel Rack platforms (Machine Types: 7D31,7D32,7D33,7Z70,7Z71,7Z72, 7Z73,7Z74,7Z75,7Z76) Known Issues: - None =============================================================================== Device Driver Version: 12.6.165.0 Supported On: Lenovo ThinkSystem Rack and Flex Problems Fixed: - None Incremental Interoperability: - Lenovo AMD Rack platforms (Machine Types: 7D2X,7D2Y,7D2V,7D2W,7Z59,7Z60, 7Z77,7D2F,7D2G,7D2H) Known Issues: - None =============================================================================== Device Driver Version: 12.6.165.0 Supported On: Lenovo ThinkSystem Rack and Flex Problems Fixed: - Improved NVMe over FC Performance Incremental Interoperability: - NVME: Added dump support - NVME: Update SLER with latest FC NVMe 2 changes - Enable Dual FW Dump features at initialization time - The following products are not supported with this release - 95Y2386 - IBM Flex System FC5052 2-port 16Gb FC Adapter - PCI SSDID: E202 - 95Y2391 - IBM Flex System FC5054 4-port 16Gb FC Adapter - PCI SSDID: E282 Known Issues: - None =============================================================================== Device Driver Version: 12.4.243.4 Supported On: Lenovo ThinkSystem Rack and Flex Problems Fixed: - Improved NVMe over FC Performance Incremental Interoperability: - None Known Issues: - None =============================================================================== Device Driver Version: 12.2.284.0 Supported On: Lenovo ThinkSystem Rack and Flex Problems Fixed: - Improved NVMe over FC Performance Incremental Interoperability: - Windows 2019 - Removed Windows 2012 and 2012 R2 support - ThinkSystem Emulex LPe35000 32Gb 1-Port PCIe "FC" Adapter [4XC7A08250] - ThinkSystem Emulex LPe35002 32Gb 2-Port PCIe "FC" Adapter [4XC7A08251] - AMD Epyc 7002 series processor based Lenovo Rack platforms Known Issues: - None =============================================================================== Previous history removed =============================================================================== Device Driver Version: 2.41.002 Supported On: IBM System x and BladeCenter - Initial Release ===============================================================================
