Symptoms

When Update Check is run it returns the wrong code version to upgrade to. In specific case the version reported was 8.7.8 when it is known the version 8.7.10 was available.

Another possible symptom is that no version to upgrade to is shown, at this point there definitely should be a later version shown as we are past ak8.7.12.

Changes

None.

Cause

Issue is caused by problem described in Bug 27017760 (akupdatecheck incorrectly comparing ak versions as strings and not integers)

Solution

This bug is resolved in Appliance Firmware Release 8.7.12 or higher.

As a reference, the following knowledge document can always be checked for current AK code versions: Doc ID 2021771.1 (Oracle ZFS Storage Appliance: Software Updates)
