Hello,
we are having this problem on several (not all) Proliant DL 380 G6 as well. The installed system ROM version is displayed as 07/02/2013, not as 2013.07.02. We are using HP SIM 7.4 with VCRM 7.4, but are having this problem since we moved from 6.3 to 7.x.
It also doesn't seem to matter whether the information is gathered via SNMP or WBEM.
I'm currently in the process of updating the systems to SPP 2014.09.
On the G6 with the incorrect version format, once you upgrade them to SPP 2014.09, the software status now lists THREE system ROM entries, each with the wrong version format:
P62 - 1 Online ROM Flash Component for Windows - HP Proliant DL380 G6 (P62) Servers (English (US)) 06/20/2009
P62 - 2 Online ROM Flash Component for Windows - HP Proliant DL380 G6 (P62) Servers (English (US)) 07/02/2013
P62 - 3 Online ROM Flash Component for Windows - HP Proliant DL380 G6 (P62) Servers (English (US)) 06/20/2013
On the servers themselves, the VCA is listing all components with the correct version format.
Any suggestions on how to resolve this are very welcome.
Regards,
André Schneickert
