Red Hat and others have released a bunch of updated software which

updated some Poweredge R720s and an HPE ProLiant BL460c Gen9 server.
On the Dell servers, the Spectre/Meltdown work-arounds are not
enabled after boot, wereas on the HPE server, the workaround is
enabled. All serves have the latest available firmware/BIOSes.

What's the CPU in each type of server?  I think Intel is either not
updating microcode for older CPUs (not sure where they're drawing the
line), or at least has not released an update yet.
