Isn't that a question for HP?

Yes, however since VMware releases the patches on their website instead of HPE I'd figured it would be worth to ask!

Hi,

When VMware releases a patch or product version, it is usually customized by the hardware manufacturers and made available only after several testing phases.

If HP has not yet released the August patch it is not VMware's problem but HP's.

As Scott says ask HP for the release notes.
