On the first boot from the HD I get this error.
"c:\hpssbem.exe is not a valid win32 application."
It won't proceed beyond this error.
Any suggestions?
Solved! Go to Solution.

SolutionWindows 2008 R2 is only 64 bit so did you deployed the 64 bit smartstartcd 8.50 x64 ??
ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softlib2/software1/cd/p1760479716/v58802/smartstart-8.50-0-x64.zip
if this problem is still there i would recomend to use the 8.40 version.

Re: DL380G5 & SmartStart 8.50
Would it find all the drivers or would I have to download and install them afterwards?
What about the raid driver for seeing the HDs during the initial install?

Re: DL380G5 & SmartStart 8.50
Could you try using "Erase Utility" from 64 bit smartstartcd and try re deploying OS again?
Or Load OS without using Smart Start CD like Jimmy said, and later once OS is up, you can download the Latest Proliant Support Pack from the link below;
(PSP 8.60)
http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareDescription.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&prodTypeId=15351&prodSeriesId=1121516&prodNameId=3288134&swEnvOID=4064&swLang=8&mode=2&taskId=135&swItem=MTX-32389bda81e94bc3b62dae3b22
It will install all the required drivers and HP Utilities and agents.
Also we have smart start 8.60 avaialble here: http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareDescription.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&prodTypeId=15351&prodSeriesId=1121516&prodNameId=3288134&swEnvOID=4064&swLang=8&mode=2&taskId=135&swItem=MTX-3f97b02184724797ac2827ebdc
Please assign points if you think information provided was useful!
Cheers!

Re: DL380G5 & SmartStart 8.50
When the error occurs, click OK and you will be left at the command prompt. The problem I discovered is that the hpssbem.exe file is 0 bytes... empty. I inserted the smart start CD and from the console window I copied the correct 64-bit file (...\compaq\install\w2k8...\hpssbem.exe)from the smart start CD to the C: drive on the server, then executed the hpssbem.exe program again from the command line. Windows install continued without error and completed. I hope this helps.

I received this error under the same circumstances- smart start 8.4 64 bit, HP dl360 G6. Some other posts suggested a firmware update, which I did but that did not change the result. However, I was able to solve the problem and get past the error as follows.
