Info
On any HPE platform configured with any of the HPE Mellanox-based network adapters
listed in the Scope section below; the firmware package (FWPKG) files for the HPE
Mellanox-based network adapters do not indicate that a reboot is required post
installation.
For any firmware package (FWPKG) component file, the information in the corresponding
payload.json file is set based on the XML flag values used while signing the raw Platform
Level Data Model (PLDM) binary file to add HPE iLO specific secure headers/signature to
it. In the case of the Mellanox firmware packages(FWPKG) component files, the XML flag
that represents the "Reset Required" status was inadvertently set to false; therefore, the
Service Pack for ProLiant (SPP) does not indicate that a reboot is required post
installation.
This does not impact the flashing functionality of the firmware component, but when it
is deployed via Service Pack for ProLiant (SPP), it will not display a message indicating
to reboot the server for successful firmware installation.
