Cannot Add Proliant Server to OneView

Mike1295 — Tue, 14 Dec 2021 21:57:34 GMT

OneView - 6.40

ILO - 2.55 running Advanced ILO evaluation license

Proliant DL360 Gen10

OneView HPE Advanced Licenses

I'm trying to add a Proliant DL360 Gen10 server to my existing OneView monitoring but there is no "Add Server Hardware" button. I must be missing something very fundamental but I can't see where I'm going wrong.

I can connect to the ILO just fine and it reports that it's healthy.

I have added the cert from the ILO to OneView.

When I go to Servers => Server Hardware there is no "Add Server Hardware" button.

Where have I gone wrong?

Thank you for your response. I don't think that it pertains to me though.

1. When I open OneView and go to Servers => Server Hardware there is no button that says "+ Add Server Hardware" I have rebooted the appliance and the button didn't show. I have logged on as an Admin which has the correct privileges. The Action button does not have an "Add" option.

2. I don't have the FC adapter that the article is referring to so I'm pretty sure that isn't my issue.

Mystery solved!

We have OneView for Synergy and OneView for managing rack servers. I was in the wrong appliance.

Glad you figured it out. I would have replied with it's either due to lack of privileges or you were trying to add the server to a Synergy Composer (which is not possible to do.)
