Public Beta Firmware

Introduction

From time to time Raptor may make public beta firmware images available. These are normally firmware images that are on a fast track to wide GA release, but for which Raptor is seeking public feedback about any issues encountered during upgrades or features missing for daily use.

WARNING Beta images have not undergone full release qualification. It is possible that upgrades may fail, leaving your system in a state requiring advanced recovery (e.g. loading a replacement BMC firmware image over TFTP and flashing it via the serial console, or externally writing the BMC Flash device with an SPI programmer). Please do not try the beta firmware images unless you have sufficient recovery tools available.
