3900 Gateways and R82.10 GA

[Alex-]

OK, we *just* installed a few 3900 in ClusterXL and now ElasticXL is supported.

So, a few questions:

- Will new appliances shipped from now on be shipped with the new GA R82.10 version?

- Will the "special" R82.10 version for ARM series continue to get their distinct hotfixes or will it be recommended to reimage them with R82.10 GA?

- For systems ordered but still in shipping, can we image them with R82.10 GA upon arrival?

- Does the R82 SmartConsole with the latest recommended hotfix support 3900 in ElasticXL now it's supported?

I think it would make sense to start a new thread for these questions.

I forked this into a new thread 🙂
Just for clarity, there are two "versions" of R82.10:

• GA1 (shipped specifically for the 3900s without "GA2" functionality, as listed in sk183199)
• GA2 (released for other platforms in sk183506)

Based on past experience, I would expect that we will switch over to R82.10 GA2 shortly.
That doesn't mean there won't be 3900s with GA1 loaded on them in the channel, and they will certainly accept GA2 (either via upgrade or via clean install)--just make sure you use the 3900-specific image in the SK.
While individual fixes may (still) be available for GA1, I would expect JHFs to be released only for GA2.
