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?
