DL385p G8 - IML Error - System Power Fault Detected

Hello Everyone

I have an issue in a server, thi is an Proliant DL385p G8; it was opperating normally wen suddenly it began to make noise like one of his fans were blocked. I restarted it and wen it finished there were no more noise, but the Health System led turns amber. It server has no system insight display then I can't know where exactly the issue is. Both of power supply are opperatives (whit the green led on). 

Checking the iLO's server there are no evidence of problems. searching in the Integrated Management Log, I notice this error message:

"System Power Fault Detected. System Has Enabled Power Protection and Disabled Power Supplies (XR: 10 00 MID: FF 77 FC 1B 23 F0 CC 23 0C 0C 40 FC 00 D0 03 01 90 00 FF FC 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00)"

A technician check the server and told to us that it was a main board problem, but I´m not sure of this. The server is online, despite of this. It has no more evidence of failures (only the led).

The firmware version is about 2013.

I hope you can help me whis this problem. Thanks a lot.

DL110 G7 Raid 1 change disks

Hello!

I have a DL110 G7 whith a B110i array controller. I have 2 SATA 250 Gb disks in Raid 1, with Windows Server 2012 Foundation. I want to update  with 2 Evo 860 1Tb disks. What is the best option not to reinstall all?

I read there are 2 options:

1- Change one disk a try to rebuild the data with the other disk, pressing F1 when the Server is Powering. If I do it, the array is updated with the new disk? If I do it for two times, I can change 2 disks, but can I recover the unsized space to use all the 1Tb space instead of 250Gb? 

2- Change 2 disks and create a new array with new disks. Then, try to use some clone software to recover all. Someone do it? Is secure to do it? what is the best software to clone Windows Server 2012 in Raid 1? If I do it and have any problem running the system, what´s happens when I put old disk?? the system recognized then and start or I must to do something ?? I am afraid if the system not running and I insert old disks, because I think I must to make a new array, and if a do it... all the data is going to be erased.

 

Thanks!!

HPE G9 smart start Intelligent Provisioning

Hi All, 

 

I have noticed in the recent release of the HPE G9s I can see information for Operating System Environment in Insight Diagnostics on the fresh server without any OS installed. 

It is showing SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 12

Intelligent Provisioning via ILO I believe it is based on CoreOS.

It could be smartstart itself using SUSE?

Failing to create new array on ML350 G6

Hi All,

I have an ML350 G6 server with 6 hard drives, two of them unassigned. Now I am trying to create a new array using the two unassigned hard drives but the option to create a new array under the ACU is missing. Could I be missing something? 

The first two arrays I created with no problems at all. Normally when you select the unassigned drives you get the option that says  "Create Array" but now its missing and thus am unable to create a third array. Any ideas?

Thank you.

Move HBA and array to new server

I'm trying to figure out if it would be possible to move a HBA to a new server along with the disk in the event of a hardware failure.

I want to be able to recover from a hardware failure quickly. We currently have a DL380 Gen 9 with a Smart HBA H241 connected to a D3600 enclousure with about 16 disks. The disks are all in one volume and the OS is on a different volume with onboard drives. It's running Hyper-V with a bunch of VMs.

What I'd like to do is have a spare server and if the first one dies then transfer the HBA and disk shelf to the new one and just register the VM's then start them up.

I know the better way would be to have a SAN and create a cluster to have some redundancy but we don't have enough money at the moment to do that.

HPE ML110 Gen9 Memory Speed

Hi all,

Need some advice. I recently bought a HPE ML110 gen9 server with a xeon E5-1603v3. I upgraded this CPU to an E5-2697 v3 (14 core) and installed Samsung 2-Rank PC-17000 memory (8 x 16gb @ 128gb). All works fine, however looking at the memory speed, it is only running at 1866mhz, this is despite the memory reporting a max frequency of 2133mhz in iLO.

Any idea what is going on, and are there any solutions to get the memory working at its correct speed? I've been scratching my head about this for a while and have found no solution. There appears to be absolutely no way of changing memory speed settings in the bios either. Really annoying knowing that my hardware is not running as fast as it should be and that I have absolutely no control over it.

Thanks.

I bought a spare 4 bay LFF cage to use in my ML350e G8 V2, but my server does not have another 10-pin power connector available. I see in the back fo the redundant power supply unit, there are two 10-pin slots which are available, but no cable.

Can anyone assist me with where I can find this cable, so I can make use of my second drive cage?

Thank you!

hallo,

I use HP Proliant DL380e Gen8 server
and would like to upgrade it with hardware left from older servers
I mean RAID card left from HP Gen6 server - P410 with 512MB cache and BBWC

I successfully physically installed RAID card P410 into Gen8 server
and even pick up RAID data from my HDDs left from 
entry level HP Dynamic Smart Array b120i adapter

in any case P410 RAID adapter was re-configured with Intelligent Provisioning
and new RAID arrays was successfully re-created in same size as it was before

Gen8 server successfully pick up P410 adapter for boot priority in BIOS

but unfortinally I found out that P410 RAID adapter
was unable to indicate correct activity on HDDs LED lights

firmware upgrade of P410 RAID adapter didn't solve this problem ((

any ideas on fixing minor bugs on supporting HP hardware on HP hardware?

best regards,

Tallinn

Has anyone heard whether or not HPE intends on releasing BIOS updates for the GEN 8 or earlier Proliant ML/DL/SL servers to mitigate the Zombieload/MDS vulnerability?

I checked Intel, and they have released microcode updates for the CPUs in my DL380 Gen 8's (Xeon E5-2630 v2, CPUID 306E4), but the only bios updates I see so far from HPE are for Gen 10 and 9 models.

DL20 Gen 10 - No controllers detected

Hello,

I am trying to get 3 DL20 Gen 10 servers up and running and am tying to get the 2 installed SSD's mirrored through the Smart Storage administrator(hardware RAID 1) and see "No controllers detected" along with the 2 SSD's. If I click to highlight an SSD in the list I can see it say "Adapter: Intel Corporation" Unmanaged Host Bus Adapter.

I ran through the most recent firmware and Driver updates on the most recent Smart update manager (8.4.0 found on the newest support pack available to download (3.40.3.0) but that did nothing to help identify the installed controller. I am currently set to run in UEFI mode but would gladly switch to legacy if I thought hat was going to get me somewhere....thanks for any guidance!

I am simply trying to stetup a RAID 1 hardware RAID configuration, but am thus far unable to configure the controller thought the Smart Storage Administrator.

Firmware and drivers for HP Proliant DL380 Gen 7 with Ubuntu Server 18.04.2 LTS.

Good day.
Have HP Proliant DL380 Gen 7 with Ubuntu Server 18.04.2 LTS.
ILO version – 1.91
BIOS version - 2018.05.21
SMART Array – 6.64
HPE QLogic NC328i/NC532x - 2.18.1

Tried to update firmware and drivers I was confused in small count of packages for Debian / Ubuntu. For example, in 18-Dec-2018 was relased new network driver packs for SLES:
https://support.hpe.com/hpsc/swd/public/detail?swItemId=MTX_6cac88b32c9f40e58b7075fc7d#tab4
and for RHEL:
https://support.hpe.com/hpsc/swd/public/detail?swItemId=MTX_553b8098a5ec45e5ac09c99264

but there are no similar releases for Ubuntu. So my questions is - does HP support their servers on Ubuntu? How can I get actual drivers and firmwares?

Regards.

HPE System Management Tools on HP Proliant DL380 G7 with Ubuntu Server 18.04.2 LTS.

Good day.
I'd like to install HPE System Management Tools on HP Proliant DL380 G7 with Ubuntu Server 18.04.2 LTS.
Before making any changes I updated firmware from SPP 2016.10.0 (it was last SPP where DL380 G7 is supported). After updates I have those versions:
ILO version – 1.91 (was updated separately)
BIOS version - 2018.05.21 (was updated separately)
SMART Array – 6.64 (updated from SPP)
HPE QLogic - 2.18.1 (updated from SPP)

Next I had read those articles (the second one in Russian)
https://thejoyofstick.com/blog/2013/04/28/install-hp-support-software-in-your-ubuntu-server/
https://blog.it-kb.ru/2018/02/27/installing-hpe-system-management-tools-smh-ssa-on-the-hp-proliant-dl380-g5-server-with-debian-linux-9-3-stretch/
and tried to use them as manual.

Script add_repo.sh detected version of my Ubuntu and added new repository
deb http://downloads.linux.hpe.com/SDR/repo/mcp bionic/current non-free

Next with the command
cat /var/lib/apt/lists/downloads.linux.hpe.com_*_Packages | grep -E "Package:|Description:"

I can see what packages will be installed on my server. And this list is too small:

yuri@amber:~$ cat /var/lib/apt/lists/downloads.linux.hpe.com_*_Packages | grep -E "Package:|Description:"
Package: amsd
Description: Agentless Management Service for servers with iLO5
Package: hponcfg
Description: RILOE II/iLo online configuration utility
Package: ssa
Description: Smart Storage Administration Utility
Package: ssacli
Description: Command Line Smart Storage Administration Utility
Package: ssaducli
Description: Array Smart Storage Administration Diagnostics Utility CLI
yuri@amber:~$

I can't use amsd, because it for ILO5 (my DL380 Gen7 has ILO3) and in final I 'll have only hponcfg and some versions of ssa.
All thats mean that I can use HP System Management Homepage (package hpsmhd is not in list of available packages). Also snmpd not installed too.

So my question is - is it possible to install HPE System Management Tools on HP Proliant DL380 G7 with Ubuntu Server 18.04.2 LTS? I mean - install with hpsmhd, hp-health, hp-smh-templates, hp-snmp-agents and all another packages???

Regards.

10 disk RAID 10 across 2 cages in ML350 G8p ??

I have a server as follows
J2Q95A   HP ML350p Gen8p 8x SFF with P420i 512 (factory setup)
Later added P420 with 1GB cache along with an 2nd 8x SFF cage 

I'm planning on ripping out the 300GB drives and replacing with 10x 1.2TB as can source them at a great price

Can I create 1 array across 2 cages?
I also have 2x 718139-001  800GB SSD

The plan is to run the HyperV host from the SSD mirror and have the Raid 10 to store the guests.

Is this even possible??

Cheers Robert

I am not sure if I can spread a 10 disk Raid 10 array across 2 cages?? They have individual controllers

I don't care about migration or how it is achieved as I'll restore everything from backups
