Is it safe to install rhel7u4-tagged packages from SPP/FWPP-Repo on RHEL 7.3 systems?

We have some systems with fixed RHEL minor releases (via Red Hat EUS channels) like RHEL 7.3 EUS.


We are using the official HP repositories to update our HP packages and firmwares (e. g. http://downloads.linux.hpe.com/SDR/repo/spp/rhel/7.3Server/x86_64/current for a RHEL 7.3 EUS system).


In this repository we find packages with a "rhel7u4" (or "rhel7u1" or "rhel7u2") tag, e.g.:

  • kmod-hpsa-3.4.18-105.rhel7u0.x86_64.rpm
  • kmod-hpsa-3.4.18-105.rhel7u1.x86_64.rpm
  • kmod-hpsa-3.4.18-105.rhel7u2.x86_64.rpm
  • kmod-hpsa-3.4.18-105.rhel7u3.x86_64.rpm
  • kmod-hpsa-3.4.20-100.rhel7u2.x86_64.rpm
  • kmod-hpsa-3.4.20-100.rhel7u3.x86_64.rpm
  • kmod-hpsa-3.4.20-113.rhel7u3.x86_64.rpm
  • kmod-hpsa-3.4.20-113.rhel7u4.x86_64.rpm

Does this tag mean that these packages are only for RHEL 7.4 (or 7.0-7.2) or is it safe (and supported) to install them on a RHEL 7.3 system?

ML30 Gen9 + SmartArray P440 - System Overheating !!!! Please Help !!!

Hi,

I've recently installer an ML30 Gen9, this server is going to be a nightmare for me.

The onboard raid controller have really poor performances so after spending one week to get it working by updating firmware and drivers and doing a lot of testing with MySLQ I've bought a SmartArray P440.

I've connected it to the latest slot on the mainboard (PCIE 8X), battery cable to the mainboard and battery to the mainboard, the performance are fine but now the server randomly shutdown itself with this error:

Sysem Overheating (Temperature Sensor 9, Location I/O Board, Temperature 108C)

I'm attaching a screenshot, this controller is running firmware 6.30 Revision B.

Any help will be very appreciated.

Thanks!!!

DL380 Gen8 - BIOS update 3/2/2018

Hello,

Having an issue today trying to apply the latest firmware. I have tried through HP SUM and directly on the ESXi host. It is showing that it is not compatible with the hardware. The server is DL380 Gen8 P70 current bios is 2015.07.01 that installed from the baseline HP SUM. 

Downloaded bios from here: https://support.hpe.com/hpsc/swd/public/detail?sp4ts.oid=5194969&swItemId=MTX_b7dea47813224a3380b7f9e715&swEnvOid=4184#tab-history 

Any advice would be great. The last ticket I opened this week with HPE for firmware updates turned into a two-hour call. It was such a waste of time. 

Thanks,
Chris

Server: HP ProLiant Gen8 G1610T

O/S: Windows Server 2012 R2

Installed OS via Intelligent Provisioning and everything has been working fine until recently when I needed to swap a disk. I am now unable to boot into Intelligent Provisioning. Tried to re-install Intelligent Provisioning via this guide but I get an error after booting from recovery media "iLO unresponsive - unable to continue" (see screenshot attached).

Can anyone help please?

G10 2012 R2 Server Install Issue

Hi, Ive noted an issue with an install of Windows 2012 R2 on a new out-of-the-box Hp DL360 Gen10.

Inside is a HP Smart Array P408i-a SR Gen10 Controller with 2 x 600Gb SAS drives.

When accessing Smart Storage Administrator and creating a new array from the 2 drives, a message appears:

"One or more selected drives are connected to mixed mode ports, and directly exposed to the OS. These drives will become unavailable to the OS after this operation.

Are you sure you want to continue?"

On clicking Yes, the server reboots as expected - then when running the Windows 2012 R2 install from a bootable USB created by Rufus, at the screen where you select which drive to install - it can't see the created array.  Therefore the installation can't continue.

However, the raid1 array is created OK.

I don't build too many of these, but can't remember this as an issue with G9s?

Additionally, using the Intelligent Provisioning route, if I point the application to an ISO of Windows 2012 R2 on another USB drive - it will see it, but when you select it, it simply says "Validating" and then does nothing.  

I'm doing something wrong here, but for an out-of-the-box install, should this be an issue?

Sehr geehrte Damen und Herren,

bei einem Arbeitgeber sind zwei HPE ProLiant DL380p Gen8 vorhanden, welche ich zu einem HA-Cluster verkabeln und Microsoft Windows 2012 R2 Server entsprechend konfigurieren soll. Also einen Microsoft Windows 2012 R2 Hyper-V Cluster soll ich aufbauen.

Die HPE ProLiant DL380p Gen8 haben derzeit jeweils zwei SSD für die Betriebssysteme.

Welche Produkte könnte der Arbeitgeber noch erwerben für ein gemeinsamen Storage für den Clusterbetrieb der beiden Produkte, oder lassen sich gar weitere SSD in jeweils den Servern dafür verwenden, ohne dass ein HPE VirtualStore zusätzlich erworben werden müsste, siehe auch mein Anliegen hier:

https://community.hpe.com/t5/Operating-System-Microsoft/Which-LUN-can-one-use-for-HPE-ProLiant-360p-Windows-Server-Hyper/m-p/6999205

Bitte geben Sie mir Auskunft.

Mit freundlichen Grüßen

DL20 Gen9 Storage Option

Hi,

I plan for the deployment of an DL20 Gen9 as a VMware ESXi 6.5 host. Having a lot of experience with DL360 G6-9, I am completely new with the DL20.

As the B140i dumb array controller comes wih certain performance limitations, I wonder i fthere is a cheap upgrade path to a Smart Array Controller. P440 is quite costly, but P410 can be bought at an attractive cost point.

Both P410 and DL20 documentation do not make specific notes about compatibility, that's why I would like to hear about experience from the field.

  • Is it possible firmware/functionility-wise?
  • Can I reuse existing cabling from 2LFF non-hotplug backplane?
  • Will it be able to integrate with the DL20 96W battery option or is it easier to integrate the P410 original battery option?

Someone able to comment?

BR, Uwe

DL20 VMware MicroSD or internal USB3.0

Hi,

I am planning for a DL20 Gen9 deployment of ESX 6.5. As this is a small scale integration in my home lab, I will safe the effort of providing an Autodeploy solution. My idea is keep the ESXi image on flash media as I did in many bigger scale integrations before based on DL360.

As the DL20 Gen9 offers internal MicroSD and USB3.0 connectivity I find myself in a Pro-Con decision witch to prefer.

Do you know any good reason to prefer one of both as technically both should serve the purpose?

How to modify older ML350 G5/G6 tower servers to accomodate 2tb+ hard drives

I've been trying to figure out how to modify some older ML350 G5/G6 tower servers that I'm working on for a school.  Right now they don't have any backoffice technology.  Unfortunately the servers I currently have don't have enough space for saving files or much of anything else other than running DNS, DHCP, etc   Once upon a time long ago I could have sworn I came across an article either on this site or somewhere on the web that was talking about this but i don't remember the solution.  Has anyone had "hands-on" experience with this?  Or if anyone has any links to point me in the right direction would be much appreciated.  Thanks in advance.

Issue with upgrading firmware with P410i and P410.

Hi,

I'm relatively new to Servers in general, so please excuse me if I miss out information, or can't 100% clarify things.

I've recently gotten ahold of a DL380 G7, with accompanying 2017.04 HP Service Pack ISO on a USB stick (yes, I MD5 checksummed it and it matched with what HP's site had)

The server had an integrated HP P410i controller on it, which was having issues. Intermittently, while booting, the P410i would error out, with the error of "Slot 0 HP Smart Array P410i Controller. 1783-Slot 0 Drive Array Controller Failure!, [Command Failure (cmd=11h, err=020h)]."

I figured that maybe it could have been an issue with firmware, as the person I got it off of mentioned they never updated the firmware but had the ISO. I booted up the Service Pack off of a USB stick (created using the HP service pack USB utility), and ran it in automatic mode. Turns out I can't upload images here (I guess it's an anti-spam thing) so I've gone ahead and uploaded them to imgur. Hopefully HP will let me post them here.

https://imgur.com/a/adOFo

It's as if the card doesn't even exist to the firmware updater, but the BIOS of the server is detecting it.

 

I ended up buying a used P410 controller card, and installed it into the server. It worked fine for a few days, but me being stupid decided to try and update the firmware on it again. This time around, the HP Service pack said it had updated the card, and required a reboot to complete the firmware installation. So I clicked the "Reboot" button in the firmware updater, but absolutely nothing happens. I left it running for half an hour and it still didn't reboot so I had to hold the power button down to forcefully reboot the server.

Upon the reboot, the card wasn't able to work anymore, giving the error:

Slot 3 HP Smart Array P410 Controller

1783-Slot 3 Drive Array Controller Failure!

[Command failure (cmd=0h, err=00h, dlu=015:41h)]

Now I can't use this card either. It's like the firmware update bricked the card.

 

 

I originally went with HP because it seemed like the best server hardware to use for me (I wanted to virtualize some VMs, pfSense, etc. for practicing labs for certifications, etc. but now I can't because of this stupid issue. Might as well buy another brand due to this...)

Any help is appreciated. It's either something I'm doing, or it's something that the service pack I'm using is doing. I don't know.

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

HP ML310e Gen 8 & WD Gold Hard Drives

Hi Everyone

I have an older ML310e Gen 8 server with the built-in B120i RAID controller running a network that I am looking after. The server is well out of warranty and there is no budget available to replace the server however as it is running out of space (currently has 2x500GB mirrored drives) I was wondering about replacing the drives with WD Gold hard drives.

They are marketed as "Enterprise class Datacenter drives" and have a 5 year warranty.

Was wondering if anyone had tried this and can confirm either way whether it works or not ? I did find a long discussion here: https://community.spiceworks.com/topic/335652-non-hp-drives-for-hp-gen8-servers

 but couldn't come up with a definitive YES or NO answer.

I look forward to hearing from people soon. Yes i know that HP will recommend the HP branded drives but i would like to know if the WD Gold drives will work or not.
 
Thanks
