Hello,
I'm going to install a graphics card in my ML350 Gen9 and was wondering what cable I need to get if I need a 6-pin PCI-E power connector to the GPU?
From what I've seen online there is a 8-pin connector on the motherboard that I need connect a cable that will be 6-pin in the other end but I can't find the right cable.
Hi Community,
we setup a lot of HPE Gen9 and Gen10 DL servers for endcustomer use.
Update the firmware to the level of the current SPP is the first step.
At the moment, we use latest SPP iso on a bootable USB drive.
We boot from USB drive. In the SUM GUI we use automated settings.
The systems firmware is updated with the current baseline with the autodetection of updates in the SPP.
To automize this process I would like to perform this process on CentOS 7 cli.
CentOS is just command line, no GUI.
The system won't have Interent access and I don't want to use any online repository with apt-get or similiar.
I need a tool like SUT that runs on linux cli. (Not with the GUI like SUM)
As repositroy I want to use whole SPP. (so I can specify directory or file location in cli command)
I wasn't able to find out how to do that with the HPE guides.
Which tool can I use?
SUT from here: http://downloads.linux.hpe.com/SDR/repo/sut/
Do I have to use the Firmware Pack for ProLiant (fwpp) instead of SPP?
Are there any license/entitlement tokens required for using sut on linux cli?
If any of you uses this method, what are the commands for automatic discovery and update using a defined repository?
Thanks in advance.
Why not running SUM either CLI or GUI from a central PC and deploy the firmware remote?
Hello,
This will required deep analysis, please open a support case on this matter.
Thanks
I've recently bought this server and was trying to find the specific specs for the motherboard in particular. I am trying to upgrade the CPU but it seems there is no CPU list? If someone can help out, it would be much appreciated. I have scoured google these last two days and have found nothing.
Part number - 591747-001
Hello,
This is my first message.
Can anyone who owns a DL980 G7 with 8 cpus run a benchmark for me please? Please write me a private message.. A message in this thread is fine too.
Thanks.
exactly,
above on the picture is that one installed and failed now
below is new one i bought=(
so if it possible to define correctly drive using Part number,
how and where i can see this part number if drive is installed and working for now. iLo only shows HPE Model of drive, serial number and that's it
thank you in advance
so trying to find way to find exact drive for my HP Proliant DL380G9
now i know that it's possible to find only by Part number, not with any HPE Model number as i tried to find before.
Or if you know specs of your drive, you can find exact drive in the list of parts for your server for example like for my server

thank you everyone for replies!
Hello,
Greetings.
Based on the priority, you can work on the server. If the priority of the Expansion is High, then the other operations on the server will be slow.
Changing the Expand Priority setting
The Expand Priority setting determines the urgency with which the controller treats an internal command to expand an array.
At the low setting level, normal system operations take priority over an array expansion.
At the medium setting, expansion occurs for half of the time, and normal system operations occur for the rest of the time.
At the high setting, the expansion takes precedence over all other system operations.
Thanks.
I work for HPE
I cannot get conrep to work on a Gen10 DL360 server running Windows Server 2016. I take the following steps:
The output on the screen is as follows:
c:\Program Files\HP\Toolkit>conrep -s -f current.xml
conrep 5.3.0.0 - HPE Scripting Toolkit Configuration Replication Program
(c) Copyright 2013,2017 Hewlett Packard Enterprise Development LP
System Type: ProLiant DL360 Gen10
ROM Date : 06/20/2018
ROM Family : U32
Processor Manufacturer : Intel(R) Corporation
XML System Configuration: conrep_gen10.xml
Hardware Configuration: current.xml
Global Restriction: [5.00 ] OK
Platform check:

Any help would be appreciated.
hi,
we may not be able to answer this Query without proper description of the GPU what installed?
hence either contact the reseller to get the spec from the HPE sales team or log case with HPE support team.

Hi ,
You may use the below riser cage for this purpose
you may install 2 x PCI device from this riser cage

Hi
If they wouldn't be server memory system will failed on memory initialization no on the end of the POST, I would guess.

Because firmware update is not the only thing those system going to do.
It's an automated process with the CentOS environment, that deploys image, creates RAID, Ilo bios settings, etc.
This deployment process runs on hundred machines once.
So I need to incorporate firmware updates on the baseline of the current SPP into our process.
The question is what tool to use on linux CLI with autodiscovery of hardware and autoupdate of necessary firmware with the SPP as baseline.
If you give me the instruction for one Server would be enough.
SUM from central PC or any other "automated" HPE solution won't do the trick.
I just need to know how to do it on one server. I can go from there myself.

Hard to suggest something without details ... did you had a look on OneView?

Is anyone else experiencing the same problem ?

smartupdate --s --use_location /folder/with/SPP/packages/ --romonly --logdir /my/log/folder/
Ok, so I guess this is the command I was trying to find...
Thanks for the suggestion of sum cli.
I found this document and was able to find out what I need:
SUM CLI
I can run this on one server, so I can adapt it now to a shell script for use in my automated environment.
This is the page where you can find the chess benchmark and results for several systems: https://bit.ly/2Qu2ZD7
I'm considering buying a used DL980 G7 but first I would like to know if chess engines can run correctly on it.
Thank you.
Hi
We did update the system ROM and installed latest version of SPP.
Issue sorted out.
