Re: OS installation in Gen10 Server

Is this a blade server or a standalone server.
If it is a blade server then please doublecheck the profile.
If it is a blade or a standalone server, is the host WWN seen in the fabric?
Are you able to zone the ports?
Are both the ports enabled for boot?
If yes, please disable boot on one port prior to OS installation and enable it back on after OS installation.
Check if you are able to install a different OS such as ESXi.


If still facing difficulties please raise a case with the HPE technical support teams.

If it is a blade server then please doublecheck the profile. 
If it is a blade or a standalone server, is the host WWN seen in the fabric? Storage Adapter is getting disabled after reboot due to which the boot lun is getting disabled.
Are you able to zone the ports? Yes
Are both the ports enabled for boot? Yes
If yes, please disable boot on one port prior to OS installation and enable it back on after OS installation.
Check if you are able to install a different OS such as ESXi - Same issue with 2012 R2 as well
