How do I check the bios and CLPD version of DL380 server ?

hakekawa — Fri, 26 Nov 2021 04:24:53 GMT

Hello,

I don't have idea how to check the bios and CPLD version for DL380 server. As far as I know, I might install the linux and use the dmidecode command read out the bios version but it spend time to install linux.

I prefer to figure out which way to check bios version when I power on system.

- How can read bios version via web console ?

- Which method to read out the CPLD on MB ?

Thank you in advance.

Hi,

usually, we use the iLO Web GUI to check.

There is a Network Port with the Label "iLO" and the IP for this Port is shown in the Boot Screen.

If you provide the Server Generation (G8, Gen9, Gen 10), we can give you deeper Help.
