ILOM 3.0 Version Numbers

ILOM 3.0 has implemented a new version numbering scheme to help you identify which version of ILOM you are running on your system. The numbering scheme includes a five-field string, for example, `a.b.c.d.e`, where:

- `a -` Represents the major version of ILOM.

- `b -` Represents a minor version of ILOM.

- `c -` Represents the update version of ILOM.

- `d -` Represents a micro version of ILOM. Micro versions are managed per platform or group of platforms. See your platform Product Notes for details.

- `e -` Represents a nano version of ILOM. Nano versions are incremental iterations of a micro version.

For example, ILOM 3.1.2.1.a would designate:

- ILOM 3 as the major version of ILOM

- ILOM 3.1 as a minor version of ILOM 3

- ILOM 3.1.2 as the second update version of ILOM 3.1

- ILOM 3.1.2.1 as a micro version of ILOM 3.1.2

- ILOM 3.1.2.1.a as a nano version of ILOM 3.1.2.1
