New Switch show "software update required"?

[Shunze_Lee]

Hi All,
We bought several switches in one case.
But some of them show "software update required" in prompt, others are not with the same firmware version.

Update firmware take about 30 minutes...
How do I hide the message int prompt?

Thank for your help.

Thank you sir.
Can you explain what means for "pre-GA"?
And why some of these switches are pre-GA, and the others are not?
We bought them in the same shipment.

Shunze, the switches were shipped with a pre-GA version of code. This can be verified using the "show version" command.

It would be highy recommended to upgrade the switches prior to configuring the switches. Please review the following article for more information:
