On an HP 5820-24XG-SFP+ (JC102A) the ports cabled with genuine HP X240 10G SFP+ 3 m DACs (JD097C) came up but logged OPTMOD/4/FIBER_SFPMODULE_NOWINVALID: This is not a supported transceiver for this platform, and broadcast/multicast counters on those ports grew faster than normal. The cable is lisetd in the switch datasheet, so the poster asked whether the warning would affecct connectivity.

I'd upgrade to the latest firmware - I suspect the running release predates the cable's addition to the compatibility list. HPE support said the same thing.
