This was a box that I rebuilt, as when I acquired it, it had no processors or memory. I believe that the box formerly contained 400mhZ processors.
Can and How do I update the microcode to accept the new processors and boot up?
Thanx.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Re: Proliant 5500
Have you updated the system bios?? If not you might wanna do the update from the following link:
http://h18007.www1.hp.com/support/files/server/us/locate/20_1108.html#4
Please make sure you update with the right one. One more question for you. Did you set the dip switches properly?? Or I should ask did you modify them at all?? Please let me know if I can be of any assistance.

I downloaded the rompaq (sp20622.exe) to a diskette and attempted to boot the server, with no success..
No, I did not change the DIP switches, as I don't have documentation to set the dip switches correctly, so if you could provide the info or a link to the info?
What would be the logical steps to follow.. understanding that I cannot even boot this system, as it had no processors at all when I got it, but was able to get my hands on the 3 500mHZ processors.
Thank you.

Re: Proliant 5500
Well let's start from scratch. Just bring the server to minimum configuration which means one CPU and stuff. I have attached the CPU core frequency settings for you. If it does come up then update the system bios first and make sure it works. Thereafter start adding the rest of the components.

Re: Proliant 5500
Did you follow the instructions under the heading 'Installation' to create the bootable BIOS upgrade diskette? See:
