Put another way, the FSP code now has its own software maintenance agreement
as of Power8. You'll need to get that agreement updated and potentially pay
for the support.
So you need 3 agreements now: 1) software support for IBM i , 2) hardware
maintenance, and 3) FSP microcode.

(YYYY-MM-DD): 2017-08-23
It means that after that date you will no longer be able to update your
firmware.
That is unless your business partner sells you the appropriate key to extend
that date.
