DL380p issues installing Windows

andrewvs — Mon, 13 Jun 2022 01:32:53 GMT

We have a DL30p Gen8 with 16GB RAM and 600GB on a single disk.

The iLO is configured and works. We have tried using Intelligent Provisioing but get the following error:

Windows cannot find the Microsoft Software License Terms. Make sure the installation sources are valid and restart the installation.

The Windows 2016 Data Center ISO file is on a USB stick formated as ExFat. Using Intelligent Provisioning we complete all of the information, select the ISO on the USB stick. The installation progresses, the server reboots and starts WIndows and then we get the error.

ISO file: Windows_Server_2016_Datacenter_EVAL_en-us_14393_refresh.ISO

I'd be grateful for any ideas.

Hello,

The error suggests that the issue could probably with the image that is being used in Intelligent Provisioning. Please check if a production version of Windows operating system installs without issue.

If it installs, then it could either be an issue with the installation media or that the evalutation image is designed to behave a certain way.

If this is not resolving the issue, the please contact HPE Support for further assistance.
