Error description

  • Software Update Recommendation from the Advisor capturing
    erroneous software update warning regarding DS8000 software
    Level.
    This can be seen in:
    Storage Insights -> WEB UI ->
    Insights -> Advisor:
    Specific to a storage device a Software
    Update Recommendation will be similar as follows:
    
    A software
    warning has been detected. The software level 7.7.52.620 of
    this asset <Asset_Number> SN <Serial_Number> is below minimum
    level. IBM recommends you update to at least the minimum level
    87.52.19.0, but strongly suggests moving to the recommended
    level 87.52.19.0
    Findings:
    The software level 7.7.52.620 is
    included in bundle 87.52.19.0.
    That means we are at bundle
    level 87.52.19.0
