Hello,
I have a question regarding the memory module support of my Microserver Gen8.
Currently it is equipped with an Intel Xeon CPU which itself is able to address up to 32 GB of RAM at dual-channel mode.
I have found a memory kit of 32 GB which consists of 2 x 16 GB Unbuffered ECC DIMM Modules. Will these modules perform in the microserver. From a technical point of view it should as far as I am able to read out of the specs.
With kind regards & Many thanks in advance

Hello,
I want to connect Neo's StorageLoader to a ProLiant ML110 G6 server by a SAS cable, but I not really know how to do it. I want to use sas cable, because storageloader has interface SAS 6GB and FC 8Gb. Do I need an extra pci sas controller and if yes than which model it should be?
I've found controllers like HP Smart Array P212/Zero Memory Controller (462828-B21) and HP Smart Array P212/256MB Controller (462834-B21) as compatybile with server. I've also found HP 462594-001 SMART ARRAY P212 SAS 013218-001. If I need extra controller than which one I should choose?
Sorry if my description has not enough details, but I'm just learniing and it is my learning job. So if you need more details just write and I will try respond as fast as possible.
Hi
I got ML110 G7 Server get stuck and unable to do any thing. some time it get stuck at the post screen , or soem time on bios screen or some time s on OS mode. installed latest bios versions and no luck. ILLO is working ok.
thank you

This server, despite being on the Microsoft HCL as certified for Windows Server 2016 (see https://www.windowsservercatalog.com/item.aspx?idItem=5034ab7d-e864-6747-9e38-df974f397de7&bCatID=1282 ) )doesn't seem to support the Hyper-V role.
I have tried the following scenarios (note, all firmware is as up to date as possible):
Installed Windows Server 2016 using intelligent provisionsing;
Installed Windows Server 2016 without intelligent provisioning;
Installed bare metal Hyper-V 2016.
In all cases, I've tried using both the drivers shipped on the provisioning AND the latest drivers from the HPE supprot site.
In every case, the role will go through the initial add, will reboot, reboot again and hang at the Windows logo with a spinning wheel.
Safe boot works but removing the role from there results in it saying feature couldn't be completed at which point it reboots back into the same hung condition.
A logged boot shows the last file loaded to be FASTFAT.SYS. Renaming this in both the DLL cache and SYSTEM32\drivers folder just shows the same point with the exception that FASTFAT failed to load.
In a nutshell the server doesn't appear to be in any way comaptible with Hyper-V 2016 OR I just have a bad one.
Wouldn't mind if anyone else could test and let me know their results.
Oh it's the onboard BL210 Array Controller with a pair of 1TB SATA drives (all checks out in good condition). Same results whether using the very latest 2016 compatible driver or the older 2012 R2 driver.
This is just a lab machine but I'm now at the point of not wanting to risk 2016 on it, trashing my lab down the line if I added another role that turns out to screw the OS over. :(
Hello all, I just got a DL360 G7 from a public auction and everything works fine. However, the fans go to about I want to say 50% speed then sometimes it drops down to where you can barely hear them then goes back up to 50%, is there a way to fix this and set a constant fan speed or at least stop it from doing this? I am running windows 10 64 bit and the the server has 2 X5650 CPUs pre installed so I have the preformance model and I was also wondering if I can upgrade them to 2 X5690s Thanks!
Hello, I am currently thinking about installing vSphere 6 on DL360 G7 and I have a few questions
1. Is there a difference from vSphere and ESXI?
2. Do I install vSphere, connect to it using the client, and then use it like VMware workstation?
3. Can I run a firewall using PFSense, a windows 10 and linux VM?
4. How do I update the bios to the Reconmended VMware ESXI version? It says online rom
5. Will there be any preformance differences compared to say by dual booting into a linux distro and running one by VM?
6. Is there a way to get SATA 6 on the SAS backplane with Sata SSDs?
Thanks!
Dear HP experts.
My ML110 G7 server gets stuck with in 2-5 min time ,every time I restart it. Sometimes it hangs during the thermal calibration process, sometimes on the bios program, sometimes at the software installation stage...etc.
What I noticed so far, whenever it get stuck, there will be amber light displaying on the main board. There are 2 LED sets on the board vertical and horizontal. See attached picture. I can see the horizontal LED get changed during the boot post.
When it hangs, I can see amber LED on vertical LED set. What exactly these LED means? Can someone advise me on this?
Thank you

Hello!
I have a need for graphic card with a bit more performance on my old DL580 G5 than integrated ATI ES1000 can provide.
The problem is, that machine wont boot, even more it would not even post if I install a graphic card into pcie slot. So far I tried with nvidia 8800GTS, GT 740 and ati HD5970.
Result is the same with each of them- small green light turns on besides pci-e port used and machine just hangs after power-on and does nothing.
If somebody coudl explain me what I am missing, I'd be very greatfull. If any other informatons are needed, please say, I'll provide them as soon as possible.
Thank you in advance

Hello community,
first of all, the hardware:
HP ML310e Gen8 v2
HP Smart Array P420 with 2GB FBWC with 2 Raid5 Volumes (Each 4 HDDs)
I had a RAID Failure (2 Hard Drives Crashed in a Raid5 Configuration). After that I tried to get the Volume back up, since only 1 Drive failed and the controller kicked out another one due to bad SMART stats - as far as I can tell now, a very verybad decision...
Long story short: I powered the server couple of times off and back on again till it booted with the 2nd raid5 volume up. While I did this, it seems the controller was thinking, that something is wrong with the cache, because it had no time to backup/restore the files.
For now there is only 4 Hard Drives in one Raid5 Volume - The one which is still ok. the other one is gone.
Since then I get while booting the following error on the p420:
POST Error: 1797-Slot X Drive Array - Cache Data Backup or Restore Previously Failed or Cache Read Error Occurred and data in Cache has been lost.
I still could change configuration in the Storage Administrator - Now after the Update today on Firmware 8.00 on the P420 it's not more possible.
I tested the 2GB Cache Module with the Battery at work on another p420 in a LAB Server - It worked there fine for a week with 2-3 Reboots..
Now back home it still doesnt work. Is there a way to reset the p420 Controller to factory status, so it doesnt recognize that the cache module "failed" once on it? Pricing is at the moment 150€ for a "new" (renewed at max, more like used in a server for years already) 2GB cache module with battery, which I dont want to spend on an old server, which I am going to replace january anyway.
Any ideas and/or tips? I tested to put the controller into a different slot (Slot3 standard, also put it into the slot2 and pci-e16x), changed firmware, which made it worse (HP Smart Array Storage doesnt let me to change/reset config now, not like on 7.02 before, also firefox loses connection all the time I try to make something there on the p420, which results that I need to reset the server)
Hi,
Server is getting crashed after each 3-4 days with MCE errors stated here in ILO : http://prnt.sc/czheoz
We'd also like to inform that we're using these same servers HP Dl180 G6 in other environment which is not crashing & the only difference is the CPU. The server which is causing crash has 2 x X5675 CPU while the servers are not crashing using 2 x L5630 cpus. The fix applied so far is :
- Bios -> Power regulator -> High static performance
The server specs are :
HP DL180 G6
CPU 2 x X5675
Ram 48GB
4 x 3TB HDD @ RAID-10
Please advise !!
Thanks in advance !!
Hello!!Tell me with this question. After the installation of the windows operating system and software for the card , rebooted the computer and it started beeping ... Tell me what to do , monitor what is not there .

Hi,
I've configured an o365 mailbox that has a valid license, I'm using this for all device emails since it's clean and neat.
I'm hoping to configure iLO4 AlertMail with o365 but I don't see any options on where I can authenticate the account. AlertMail has no username / password that I can use to authenticate to o365, is this possible. If so how. I have no local exchange and would prefer not to configure smtp relay or modify the spf records.
I have iLO Advanced licensing.
Static networking has been configured.
Firmware is v2.40
I have been unable to find any documentation with regards to o365 setup. Any info would be appreciated.
My server is down and need to cold boot.
After server boot up and checked the system logs, an event message is shown:
"Array controller P420i [Embedded] has reported that it previously locked up with code 21234451."
And another message is:
System Information Agent: Health: Post Errors were detected. One or more Power-On-Self-Test errors were detected during server startup. Details of the POST error messages can be found in Integrated Management Log.
[SNMP TRAP: 6027 in CPQHLTH.MIB]
Any idea on this issue?
My OS is: Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard 64Bits SP1
I have the above system with two arrays setup. Array one is RAID level 1 with two drives and is fine. Array 2 is RAID 5 with 3 drives. I also have a Global spare setup. logical drive 2 on Array B failed. The array utility did not show any of the drives failing but the logical drive was marked as not enabled and was not rebuilding. I rebooted and pushed for recovery but it failed. I looked at the drives and noticed drive in Bay 2 was not blinking green. So I replaced this drive which was in Array B and rebooted. It started rebulding but when finished it said it is waiting for recovery and never has recovered and sitting in that state.
I ran ctrl all show config detail and the result yielded:
Logical Drive: 2
Size: 465.7 GB
Fault Tolerance: RAID 5
Heads: 255
Sectors Per Track: 32
Cylinders: 65535
Strip Size: 64 KB
Full Stripe Size: 128 KB
Status: Ready for Rebuild
Caching: Enabled
Parity Initialization Status: Initialization Failed
Unique Identifier: 600508B1001033363220202020200008
Disk Name: \\.\PhysicalDrive1
Mount Points: E:\ 465.7 GB
Logical Drive Label: A07D026CPH79MW9362 22DD
Drive Type: Data
I dont know what needs ot be done to get out of recovery mode here. I may have repalced a good drive and not a marginal drive. Should I replace another drive out of the three drives. Which other one could be bad?
Any help willbe appreciated.
One of my disks in a 2-drive RAID1 array died.
So I replaced the disk. Now the array says, ready for recovery, but never recovers.
Attached you will find the report from the controller.
I uploaded a copy of the report here (cannot attach it)

What can I do?
Hi,
Is it possible to upgrade the controller in DL80 from H240 to P440/2GB FBWC retaining the RAID configuration and without data loss? If yes, how it could be done?
Best regards,

Hello Forum,
i have a problem with my microserver gen8. I installed the HP SNMP Agents, HP Health and the HP Agentless Management Service. The Agents are running, but when i start HP AMS i get this error:

Okt 31 10:03:47 srvnas10 systemd[1]: Stopping HP Agentless Management Service daemon...
I reinstalled it, i installed an other version, nothing seems to help. I opend a support case. The support guy told me to post here and in addition to that he escaleted the case to another level.
Anyone has a clue?

Hello,
I just start deploying HP System Management Homepage 7.6.0 and for the machines receiving 7.6.0 the shortcut previously used is broken.... (Previous version using this shortcut 7.5.5)
URL: https://localhost:2381
Internet explorer cannot display the webpage.
With 7.5.5 the same shortcut is working fine
Any idea?
Thanks,

Hi, I currently have 2 groups of drives, each a RAID 1 setup, utilizing the B110i RAID controller. This controller has a 4 drive RAID maximum.
Ports 5 and 6 (3gbit ODD SATA ports) are not used, but I would like to utilise one of them for an additional (SSD) drive in non-RAID.
I am unable to achieve this. Each time I select SATA 5 or 6 to be a AUTO or ATAPI type, the setting is forgotten by the BIOS, probably because I have set the "SATA MODE SELECTION" to "RAID".
So, what am I doing wrong? Surely I am able to utilize the two remaining SATA ports, albeit not using the RAID controller? Thank you in advance!
