UPS Question

$
0
0

I have a CyberPower UPS and am using PowerPanel running on a virtual machine on my DL360P. I have the setting to shutdown the ESXi host after 30 seconds on no power and email me.

This works 100% but the issue I have is how do I get it to restart once the power comes back on? When I tried it I had to manually push the power on button.

I've got a new server DL180 Gen9, and I'm trying to update the BIOS in the P440 Smart Array controller.  


Just trying to keep some terminology straight here. Gen8 systems were the last ProLiant that the System ROM was BIOS-based, Gen9 and later systems have a UEFI-based System ROM.  All of the peripheral components such as network adapters and smart array controllers have firmware.

The problem is, the update always fails when I run the update package (cp032905.exe). I've tried several times, always with a reference to the engineering log.  


What error information is being displayed? 
Have you tried updating the system and controller using the SPP?

I've also tried Smart Provisioning at boot time, but Smart Provisioning cannot contact any HPE servers (seems to be the normal state of affairs), so no luck there. 


Have you updated to the latest release of Intelligent Provisioning?  I don't recall what version contained the new HPE.com URLS,  but some of the older versions pointed to HP.com as they were released before the company seperation.

Intelligent Provisioning releases

Version 1.xx Gen8
Version 2.xx Gen9

ProLIant DL380p Gen8 P420i. Not reading hard drives

Hello.

ProLIant DL380p Gen8 Servers equipped with P420i controller. Problem as follows; I bought a large quantity of HP Seagate ST450MP0035 779246-002 450-GB 15K 2.5 inch drives. BUT when i connect them, the server shows 0 drives.

Where does it show 0 drives? in the OS, in the array config utility?  Is the controller connected to the drive backplane? Drives new or used? You sure the drives are good?

Hi Piotr,

I was wondering if I will be able to install a 1050TI on the said server?

I presume your HPE ProLiant DL180 Gen9 with HPE Smart Array P440 is running a supported version of Windows Server operating system (you wrote "Windows events"...and you cited the cp032905.exe)...so note - if not yet done before - that you should worry about the below specific note before attempting to update the P440 Firmware from version 5.04 to version 5.52 (B), which is the current latest available Firmware version you will install using that cp032905.exe file:

"Version 5.52 (B):

Modified component installer to detect if the Windows HPCISSS3.sys driver version 100.18.2.64 is installed.  With HPCISSS3.sys driver version 100.18.2.64 a Windows blue screen could occur during installation of the controller firmware. HPCISSS3.sys driver must be updated to version 100.20.0.64 or later and the Windows operating system must be restarted before attempting to install this component."

Reference here.

Hi Jimmy,

From a users standpoint, I don't care if it's BIOS or UEFI. The update fails, that's what I notice.

The error message is:

<quote>

The installation procedure did not complete successfully.  An error occurred during the setup process.

You may look at the setup log file for more details if desired.

Additional Information:
 Flash failed
A fatal error occurred. See engineering log for details.


Press the 'Close' button to exit Setup.

Tried to attach the latest log here, but it's not allowed. At least, inside the log there is a line that says:

<quote>

This component cannot be installed with the Windows HPCISSS3.sys driver version 100.18.2.64.  Please update the HPCISSS3.sys driver and restart the operating system before installing this component

</quote>

I have got no idea what I should install to get the latest HPCISSS3.sys driver. All the latest stuff in the software and driver list for the server is installed.

I've also been digging further, and the error event about a failing IOCTL is really from the controller (see below).

I uninstalled most of the HP software, and the error stopped occuring in the event log. That does not mean however, that the controller or interface is OK. It may have serious issues, or may not. Just that the components catching errors are not installed. Or there's a bug in the HPE software logging false errors.

Thanks for your input Jimmy.

Hi parnassus,

Yes, I've installed Windows 2016 Standard. I have got no idea however, where to get the updated HPCISSS3.sys driver. I've applied every update that was offered for my server on the HPE support pages.

Thanks for your advice,

Pete

Hi Everyone,

I would like to create an Email filter alert with a specific server . Everything is working when I set with Status:Critial. But, it doesn't work if I use Name:"Server name" or Name:"Ilo IP address".

Is there something missing to be able to get specific server email? Even when I use the model it was not working.

Thank you for your time!

 

 

 

ML330 G6, bad drive, replace with off the shelf drive possible?

$

Hello,

I have here one HP ML330 G6 with a B110i Controller and one bad drive from a Raid 1 array.
Since the system is already out of warranty I would like to replace the drive with one "not genuine" one.
Is the B110i Controller somehow locked to HP drives (or firmwares) or can I use any other drive?
Is it recommended to replace both drives (from one Raid 1 array) or is the mixed mode
usually without any problems as long the drives are equal in size and specs?

Thank you,
greetings,

Martin

Was this issue ever resolved? I have a DL380p G8 and ILO 2.54. I am unable to update bios through the ILO firmware update page using Chrome version 60.0.3112.101 (Official Build) (64-bit)

I receive the error message:

The last firmware update attempt was not successful. Ready for the next update.

Screen caps attached.

Uncorrectable PCI Express Error

I have a dead server that fails to boot with a Windows STOP error and this entry logged in ILO

Uncorrectable PCI Express Error (Embedded device, Bus 0, Device 28, Function 7, Error status 0x00100000)

Server:

Proliant DL380p Gen8, dual 2620 xeon, 256GB ram
Embedded HP Ethernet 1Gb 4-port 331FLR Adapter
Embedded Smart Array P420i Controller
PCI-E Slot 1 HP Ethernet 10Gb 2-port 560SFP+ Adapter
PCI-E Slot 2 HP Ethernet 10Gb 2-port 560SFP+ Adapter

Steps:

1. Installed Server 2016 Datacenter with Desktop Experience via virtual cd, no issues
2. Windows Update, reboot, no issues
3. Ran the latest (July 2017) SPP on the machine, reboot unsuccessful - pci express error

I notice HP specifies BIOS P71 for Server 2016, however Intelligent Provisioning and SUM is not seeing P71 as being available, showing the 2015 P70 as latest. However Support Downloads does show a P71 available for this system.

Any ideas?

There isn't one. Put the controller in AHCI SATA mode and use the software RAID components included with your distribution

The original poster was asking a question, not really reporting an issue.  I use Chrome to upload ROM updates via iLO on a regular basis.  How did you extract the binary image file?

The Drives are new, on boot it shows 0. When I open raid config, (F8) It shows 0 drives attached. I have tested the same slots with older drivers, the server see's them attached. I bought 9 drives, all 0 drives it does not see. Could it be something to do with block size being 520? (I was told this when i bought the drives)

yes, i am quite sure this is the reason. these drives are formatted for special disk arrays.
