DL360Gen8 and 11020 Trap

April 8, 2020, 2:30 am

Hi,

We own DL360G8 servers with LeftHand Unix OS running. Our monitoring system detect 11020 trap. We don't get problem on those servers bur we found an HPE notice about MIB version, we've to be over 10.30.

SPP installed on servers is the last one, validated for DL Gen8, P03093_001_spp-Gen8.1-SPPGen81.4..

How can we know what MIB version we're using ?

I've posted a question on this Forum about Gen8 and last SPP version. Some response explained that we could use last SPP version for servers but during Update HPE advise about client responsability and I'd never get a commitment from HPE.

 

Thanks for your help

P430 SAS cable to 8-bay SFF cage - options?

I'm trying to locate a cable I could use to connect a P430 card to an 8-bay SFF drive cage in my ML350p. The official HPE part numbers for the cable are 725675-B21 and 738379-001. This cable is nearly impossible to find except for a few instances where it is over $150.

What makes this cable so special and expensive? Is it simply the length? Could I potentiall use one of the other cables in some way?

Thanks!

SNMP - System health - Value from SNMP is different from real iLO value

Hello,

I'm using a HPE ML350 gen10 ilo 5 server. I want to SNMP monitor the general health OID = 1.3.6.1.4.1.232.6.1.3.0.

This returns a value of 4. (failed) However when I login into the iLO it's says "OK".

Same issue with another gen 9 server iLO4. Value of 4 received, but should be '3'.

How can we monitor system health via SNMP correctly?

BR + thanks!

I try set a file server with 4 x 6TB SAS 4Kn HDD, it was seagate v5 SAS 12gb interface.

I try use P840 and ML110 Gen9 to get OS and test the HDD,  in HPE SSA, the card fine those 4Kn SAS HDD, and show them as 4Kn group other that SAS HDD.

Snap15.jpgSnap16.jpg

 

I run the diag from SSA, it show some sense feature is 4k raid not support. 

Snap17.jpg

 

I try H240 card too,  when it was HBA mode, HDD could see in the Win 2016 server OS or Esxi 6.7 .

But when I switch H240 to smart array mode , it also show the driver not supprt in raid mode, couldn't set those 4Kn HDD to any Raid 0 or Raid 1 volume.

 

Any one know why the Raid card couldn't support 4K HDD for Raid mode , but support it in HBA mode?

[ DL380P Gen 8 ] Will not boot when FC connected

Hello,

I'm running a DL380P Gen 8 with a 300GB RAID1 OS and a 32TB RAID60 configuration as my backup solution for my FC SAN VMWare Environment.

All is well anytime I have the fiber disconnected from the FC Card.

However, anytime I connect the FC card to my Cisco 9148-S fabric and run mpclaim, when it reboots it just spins at the Windows screen forever.

I'm not sure if it's trying to boot for some odd reason from the FC channel or what, but I've reviewed BIOS settings, boot order, etc. and can't see anything obvious.

Additionally, if I plug in the FC connections, my ability to RDP to the server stops working, I only get a black screen.

I'm not sure if it's choosing to route some down the FC path and some through my ethernet team, but I'm out of ideas.

I have configured my MPIO settings, etc. per manufacture specs to my SAN.

 

Any insight would be much appreciated, thanks!

SmartArray P420i is not determined by system

ML350p gen8

I can not understand where the SmartArray P420i went.

iLo4 does not display any errors related to the controller.  In Starage there is no mention of the P420i at all

SSA - does not see the controller.

The last BIOS. ROM controller as far as I remember was 8.32

Could this be due to the upgrade of processors from 2640v2 to 2667v2?

What can I try to do except return the processors?

 

p.s. bios also reset to default settings

my ML370 G6 server does not want to light up anymore, no sign of life but when I remove the network card NC375i Quad Port it lights up.
other case: when I turn it off to put the card back in without removing the power completely, I turn it back on, it starts
**when I remove the power completely then I turn on again, the server does not start anymore until I remove the NC375i card.

DL360 G7 all 4 HDDs in amber led error at boot

April 13, 2020, 6:41 am

My previous topic was deleted. I think because of linking to a movie i made of the boot sequence... Well here goes again, a little shorter.

I had a working dl360 until the motherboard failed. Ordered new one and it booted. Unfortunately during the loading progressbar underneath the Proliant logo all disks lights come on in amber fault mode. solid, non blinking.

Pressing f8 on the p410i firmware gives me 0 logical disks.

I have updated the firmware with the SPP 2017 iso via USB and the p410i firmware version is now higher then the previous broken motherboard, so its not a compatibility thing i guess.

when hot-pulling out a disk it appears the be NOT spinning.

I measured the dual 6pins connector near the PSU's, going to the disks. As mass i used the metal on top of the psu's.
Bottom row of 3(yellow wires if i recall correctly is a 12v and a 5v. The middle one is ZERO 0volt...?
Top row of 3 (black wires i think) measure at 2.8v and a 3v-ish. Shouldnt this be zero? Mass?

I hope someone can enlighten me. Could the board be DOA?

thx in advance

Disk Drive Firmware Update Recommended

Hi everyone,

When booting my server, I see POST error messages telling me to update 4 of my 15 drives with new firmware. I am using an HP ProLiant DL380 G6, and when I boot the server, I see this message: "A firmware update is recommended for this physical drive."

The two models the prompt lists are "HP DG146BAAJB" and "HP DG0146BALVN". I ran the latest Service Pack for ProLiant that is supported (version 2017.04.0) and updated everything it listed, but this doesn't seem to have fixed anything. Does anyone have individual download links for the firmwares, and can you also explain how I can intergate those into my existing copy of the SPP?

Thank you in advance!

We want to upgrade our HP DL380 Propliant Gen10 (868703-B21), Intel Xeon 6138, with one or two GPUs for deep learning.

At the moment there is only one processor installed and we are trying to find out if there is there a setup (e.g. using an optional riser) that will allow us to  install a second GPUs in the system.

Gen10 Array Controllers in mixed mode

Hi,

for Ceph we want to use bunch of DL380Gen10 server with i816a array controller. 2 Disks in RAID 1 and the remaining disks in HBA mode for Ceph. I know that there have been issues with mixed mode and that it's still not supported for VMware vSAN (IIRC). According to https://h20195.www2.hpe.com/V2/GetDocument.aspx?docname=A00017196ENW mixed mode is supported with Gen10 controllers. But it also states: "Improved efficiency with mixed mode for Smart Array Controllers". What impact/downside does this mixed mode have? Is it just performance, if yes how much?

Someone recommended me to just use a seperate RAID 0 for each disk, but this seems to have an impact on disk replacement and needs a reboot to confirm the data loss (I could not check this).

ILO LDAP Configuration not working

Hi there,

i´m trying various different ways on connecting our ILOs to Active directory using LDAP.
So far everytime i configure a new ILO it works for a couple of minutes but then breaks. After that i´m unable to make it working again. I tried with ILO3 - ILO5 in various different firmware levels but for whatever reason it keeps breaking.

from the ILO5 test im getting the line

Connect to Directory Server Success Connect using SSL Failed Error code 0 (ok). Consult the Integrated Lights-Out User Guide for details.

Error code 0 (ok) seems good to me?!
So there is no real reason for me why that should stop here as error code 0 is fine ?!

Has anyone gotten this to work?

Can't configure B120i RAID Controller or boot into SSA

I've had an ML10 V2 running for a few years now, and was using an Intel SSD 535 260GB as the boot disk. Suddenly my CentOS 8 server started to freeze over night. After the 3rd night, nothing can get back up.

Trying to install a new SSD drive but I can't get to load the HP SSA Offline tool. It boots up from ISO through HTML5 remote control, gets the three options, select option 1 (auto) and then I get the white HP Flash screen, and from there it hangs. No getting through to screens that I remember in the past, where I could indeed create a Volume 1 to boot from. ANy suggestion how to get into HP SSA?

I am not using the onboard RAID capabilities, have it in SATA mode, and use CentOS 8 mdadm software raid for my /dev/sd[a-d] disks. The SSD boot disk was sde. I'm starting to feel something is wrong with the motherboard B120i controller? Anyway of using this system and booting while bypassing the controller completely?

BIOS settings were reset. NVRAM was cleaned.The result is the same.

I downloaded the ISO image hp-ivb_update-1.80-2.iso.
