I was wondering if some HPE geek or HPE expert externaly would verify if this 4 node cluster with one storage (and the mentioned HPE componentens) might be able (compatible) with this: https://www.atto.com/products/bridges/fibre-channel/8gb-fibre-channel-to-6gb-sas/FCBR-6500-DPS or if such a product exists from HPE for combinating this with the above mentioned HPE ProLiants and to buy extra Fibre-Channel-Adapters for the HPE ProLiants to connect the HPE 3700 with 4 HPE ProLiants (one DL360p, one DL360e and two HPE 380p). Going also to look at HPE quicksspecs regarding this issue.

Re: Hp Proliant DL380 G7 Issue
Hello
Simple way to reset ILO is:
- On POST screen when all options appear quickly press F8 (that option isn't there but it is working)
- You will get ILO screen, then on first tab you will find -Set Factory Default-
The other way how to reset is change nb 1 to ON position on maintanance switch on system board.
I hope that will help.
Kind Regards
Slav

NVMe in DL360 Gen9
Hi.
We have a DL360Gen9 Server, that have a 2 NVMe ports. How we can configure a raid 1 on this NVMe disks?
Cloning a server using a drive from a broken mirror
I'm trying to clone a working DL360 G9 with a single RAID 1 array on a SmartArray P440ar controller. I have broken the mirror and used one disk to rebuild the array on the original machine. All is working as expected on the original server using the rebuild mirror.
However, I'm not sure how to use the "spare" disc from the original server to create the clone. The latest instructions I can find are from 2011 in "RAID 1(+0): breaking mirrors and rebuilding drives How to, 5th edition" and they don't seem to apply to my G9. I've copied and pasted the instructions from the old How to below, for reference.
I start with one drive (containing the data I want) from the broken mirror on the original server, an identical drive with no data and a server with no installed discs and nothing configured on the array controller. Do I need to create an array with just one drive before I start? If so, which one, the drive with the data I want, or the empty drive? On my G9, once I have installed the second drive in the server (seen as unallocated), the only option I have is under "Manage Data Drives", "Mirror Array - Double the number of drives in the array and convert all logical drives to RAID 1", where I can choose the unallocated drive to join the mirror. Again, it's not clear to me whether the data I want to keep should be on the unallocated drive or the one I've already allocated to the single logical drive.
Please will someone give me step-by-step instructions (or point me to the relevant document for a G9) to clone a copy of my original server using the drive I have from the broken mirror?
Thanks!
From 2011 document:
Recombining a split mirrored array using ACU
Complete the following steps to re-mirror an array using ACU:
1. Take the server offline and insert the CD or bootable USB drive that contains the ACU (typically SmartStart) into an appropriate media drive.
2. Restart the system, booting to the CD or bootable USB drive.
3. Select the HP ACU from the Maintenance Operation menu.
4. Select the controller that contains the array you want to re-mirror.
5. In the Configuration View panel, select the array to use as the source in the re-mirrored array.
6. In the Available Tasks panel, click Re-Mirror Array.
7. Select the array to be mirrored to the source. This is usually the array previously split out of the original mirrored array, but it can be another array of the correct size. CAUTION This process destroys all data on the second array.
8. Click OK.
DL360 G5 Change from RAID1+0 to RAID5
I have a DL360 G5 Server with a Smart Array P400i Controller (Cache Module and working battery is present). All 6 SFF Slots are equipped with 300GB SAS disks which are currently configured as a RAID1+0.
Performance is not important on this machine, but disk space is running out.
Could I migrate online from RAID1+0 to RAID5 with this setup?
Re: ML350 G6 doesn't recognise any RAM
This could be a system board issue. Something that connects the cpu with your memory seems to be broken. I have seen those memory errors mostly after a cpu change and some broken pins on the cpu socket. The best option for you seems to replace the system board.
Re: DL360 G5 - Porcessor Unsupported
You could also search for the Firmware DVD that includes the BIOS Updates - Version 10.10 from June 2012 should work for your DL360 G5 - if the BIOS is outdated the network, ILO and controller firmware will not be up to date either - and it's really worth updating.
Re: HP ProLiant DL360 Gen10 with SLES11 SP4 : hp-health fail to start: check_ilo2: BMC Returned Err
Hi Jim,
I have posted here a reply, which I cannot see anymore.
We used hp-health package to automate some tasks ie. marking IML logs as resolved with hpasmcli.
Unfortunately, the links you provided do not cover the subject on how IML logs could be marked as "resolved" via ILO's CLI.
Thanks.
Re: HP ProLiant DL360 Gen10 with SLES11 SP4 : hp-health fail to start: check_ilo2: BMC Returned Err
Below is the example, showing that with ILO5 CLI setting severity to "Repaired" is not supported. The hpasmcli command on earlier ProLiant generations was allowing for this.

SCCM Proliant Integration
Hi
What is the latest option for Proliant integration with SCCM? The Proliant Integration Kit for System Center seems to have been deprecated. There seems to be a sugestion of using "Oneview", but I cannot find any decent info on it. Is it a paid product? Any ideas?
Thanks

DL 180 G9 parity initialization 0 %
Hello everyone.
My backup server Dl180 G9
I create raid 5 but progress 0% ( 8 * 4tb Sata)
I was test all device, all hard disk... Now i test 3 * 4tb sata for Raid 5 but it's all the same.
I test RAID 0 but same problem..
Pls, someone help..
Re: HP ProLiant DL360 Gen10 with SLES11 SP4 : hp-health fail to start: check_ilo2: BMC Returned Err
I don't think you can mark repaired through the iLO CLI, using the CLI about all you can do with IML is clear the entire log. After checking around I have been told the HPE RESTful interface tool 'ilorest' can perform this function. Here is the link to the tools documetnation. I'm not well versed with the tool so I can't provide and example for your task

Migrating the stripe size on a HPT GEN9 Smart Array Controller
Can I migrate the stripe size on a HPE DL380 GEN9 Smart Array Controller with no loss of data?
I know there is an option in SSA to perform this. But my question is is this non-destructive ? Does this require downtime ?

Problem with ilo2 and DL380 G6 and power on
Here is my situation, i have 2 old DL380 G6 which i use to run some of my VM Admin stuff like Log Insight etc.
I upgraded the Ilo 2 to version 2.33 03/20/2018
So far so good, i used the ILO to reboot my system and now its stuck in the Standby mode. If i SSH to Ilo and do
</>hpiLO-> power
power: server power is currently: Off
but if i now go and do
</>hpiLO-> power on
Server power already On
tried rebooting Ilo and all but no luck. Short of driving to datacenter how can i get server out of standby ?
Re: Problem with ilo2 and DL380 G6 and power on
type 'power help' to get all the power command options
You might try 'power reset' or maybe use the CLP commands listed in the help syntax.
