I search from drivers secion of hp,  only HP ProLiant DL180 G6 - O20 found, can't flash.

Re: HP DL180seG6 CTO Server BIOS upgrade problem

I tried that one, but the ID not matched.

mine is O33, This is O20, so the afudos refused to update.
the result is:
This flash version is not supported on this system!

HP ProLiant DL180 G6/DL160se G6/DL288 G6 system ROM O20 (07/01/2013)
rom id: 12DIM245.ROM

vs

HP ProLiant DL160 G6/SL160s G6/SL160z G6 system ROM O33 (07/01/2013)
rom id: 18DIM245.ROM

works, but with this notice:
627-This bios is only for DL/SL160, please flash DL180SE BIOS.
Press F1 to Continue 13

 

 

the server is DL180se G6
