... but another update was just released: new BIOS/System ROM version 2014.08.02 (13 Oct 2014) for HP ProLiant DL360e Gen8/DL380e Gen8 (P73)
It does not address any VMWare issues in the fixes/revision history section: http://h20565.www2.hp.com/portal/site/hpsc/template.PAGE/public/psi/swdDetails/?sp4ts.oid=5269386&spf_p.tpst=swdMain&spf…
Anyway may try this during next weekend.
