View bundles Displays details about any bundles added for the compliance version.
Available Actions Select an option if the compliance file is in an Error or Needs Approval state:
  • Delete the compliance version
  • Resynchronize a compliance version
  • Allow unsigned file
Select the compliance version to view the following information about the firmware package:
  • Bundles—Displays the number of bundles available in the firmware package.
  • Components—Displays the number of software components available in the firmware package.
  • Created On—Displays the date when the compliance version was created.
  • Last Updated—Displays the date when the compliance version was last updated.
  • Resource Groups Affected—Displays the resource groups in which the firmware is used.

From this page, you can:

  • Add a compliance file.

    A compliance file can be large and take some time to download and unpack. To help you monitor the progress of the downloading and unpacking operations, PowerFlex Manager provides percentage complete information for these operations in the State column on the Compliance Versions tab.

  • Select Default Version and choose a version from the drop-down list to set it as the default for compliance.
  • Select a compliance version from the list, and click the delete icon in the same row to remove the version.

    If you remove a compliance version, the version is deleted from the appliance not from the file share.

  • Select a version from the list, and, in the right pane, click View Bundles to view the firmware and software bundles available in the compliance version.
