NX-OS IMAGES AND MANAGEMENT SOFTWARE UPDATES
As of 1 April, 2010, switch NX-OS software image updates are no longer available for download on
the hp.com website. Customers can receive updates electronically through the HP Support Center (HPSC).
HP Support Center works with HP Passport, HP's single-sign-in service spanning many websites at
http://www.hp.com. You must have a HP Passport account in order to sign-in to the HP Support Center.
Follow the steps below to begin using HP Support Center to receive NX-OS image software updates.
1. Go to the HP Support Center home page at http://www.hp.com/go/hpsc
2. If you do not have a current HP Passport account:
o Click on the Register link at the top of the page. Or, click on the Register link on the HP
Support Center home page, under My HP Support Center.
o Fill in all required fields and complete your profile to create an HP Passport account. See
Manage your HP Passport Profile for details at:
http://h20565.www2.hp.com/portal/site/hpsc/template.PUBLIC_SPF_GLOBAL_HELP#profile
You will also be signed-in to HP Support Center automatically with your new user ID and
password. If you are not automatically signed in, you may return to HP Support Center to
sign-in as described below.
If you do have a current HP Passport account:
o Click on the Sign-in at the top of the page, and enter your HP Passport user ID and
password. Alternatively, enter this information directly on the HP Support Center home
page, under My HP Support Center.
o Once signed-in, review your profile to ensure all fields are accurate and up-to-date. Click
Edit your profile at the top of the page to access your profile. Save any new changes you
make. (See Manage your HP Passport Profile at the link below.)

When you have established an HP Passport account, you can access all free features and
content within HP Support Center. HP recommends spending a few minutes reviewing the
help content for each HP Support Center feature (see links at the top of this page). HP
Passport accounts cannot be shared - each user should have a separate account.
3. If you have an HP support agreement, HP Care Pack, or product warranty, link it to your HP
Passport account. This will give you access to entitled services and content within HP Support
Center. Click Manage my contracts & warranties in the My HP Support Center section HP
Support Center home page and follow instructions to make these links.
You can choose between a single owner model (where one user is the declared owner and can elect
to share with others) or a multiple ownership model. This decision can be made separately for each
entitlement. Multiple ownership allows anyone with the SAID or HP Care Pack ID to claim
ownership without having any single owner. Ownership model applies to all three types of HP
Support Center Entitlements - warranties, HP Care Packs or support agreements. They can be put
into a SHARE and controlled just like a SAID.
For more details on linking your entitlements, see the HP Support Center FAQs at
