HAs anyone had this problem? After upgraded Arbiter, web client plugin and first OVC to 3.7.8 of node in a 3 node cluster, after OVC reboot everythings fine, Federation show ok. Next rebooted hos and upgraded with firmware 790-000107-LSI-j.iso and SVTSP-2019_0315.04.iso, the OVC fails in startup showing that Simplivity HAL daemon and Simplivity OmniCube services FAIL to start??? Any ideas someone? Support Case is opened.

Re: HPE Simplivity 380 Gen9 upgrade to 3.7.8 fails after firmware upgrade...
It appears to be a problem with a storage component. Could be a bad disk, or RAID controller issue. I would first make sure these components are in good status before trying to bring the filesystem back online again.

SolutionHi! Problem solved at OVC level with great help from Kevin C at support! First suggested solution was to power off the host for at least 5 minutes. But on the second cluster node also OmniStack upgrade went ok, but after firmware upgrade again in OVC;. Since svtfs wasn´t up and running Kevin found that in the directory /var/svtfs/0/ was a file "nostart".
Solution: Delete the "nostart" file and then stop svtfs and start svtfs and immediately OVC was back in the Federation!
There was also another issue with firmware; at boot the HPE Simplivity 380 Gen9 got stuck at "Starting drivers"
Solution for me was to upgrade the ILO4 with latest version "ilo4_262.bin" manually. After that server rebooted nicely.
I hope this will be of help if anyone else comes up with this problem!
Cheers and thanks a lot to Kevin C for his support!
