I`ve just installed a perfect-running Smart Array P212 in my server. It comes with 2.72 firmware version.
My server runs vmware ESXi 6.0 and, after perform a firmware update to 6.64 version from this link: https://h20565.www2.hpe.com/hpsc/swd/public/readIndex?sp4ts.oid=3885794&swLangOid=8&swEnvOid=4115
I perform the installation process correctly, bur after it the system asks to perform a reboot. I went out from esxi shell and reboot the server.
But after it the system shows the message:
HP Smart Array P212 Controller Initializing... +x+
(the rotation mark)
And then it halts. Don`t proceed with the booting process.
I am desperate, because we have some important data in the raid disks.
Please someone help me what can I do to bring the board back to work, please.
