For NetApp HCI compute nodes that are running newer versions of BIOS, ESXi or NIC firmware than those outlined in the matrix above, NetApp will provide hardware failure support only. Customers can upgrade to ESXi 8.0 on H410C, H610C and H615C compute nodes, but it will be a manual process and the official VMware documentation should be followed to install ESXi 8.0.
