Just bought 2 new Proliant DL360 G8's
Trying to install MS Server 2012R2 & having issues getting the servers to work
The OS installs no problem but after a reboot or two, it won't work anymore. The Server 2012 startup logo appears & then you get a light blue screen (not BSOD) indicating Server 2012 has encountered a problem & cannot load & reboots
AHCI SATA Controller - V0.84
B320i Storage Array - V5.54, HBA Firmware 15.10.05.00, ROM Ver 07.25.05.00
Do I need a upgrade or downgrade in some firmware?
There must be someone who has had sucess installing Server 2012R2 on one of these models
Been fighting this for a few days now
Any Help appreciated
Solved! Go to Solution.

Here is the link to the latest Windows 2012 (R2) driver for the B320i

Re: Proliant DL360 G8 & Server 2012R2
Hopefully you'll be able to see the error message or the specific driver it was loading when it had a problem.
You could also try a safe boot in case it's some other program or driver doing something.
As the above post suggests, make sure you have the latest drivers for everything. I've only used the P420 controllers on the Gen8 boxes which work fine, so I don't know if there's anything specific to the Bxxx models to look out for. I saw someone mention making sure it's set to AHCI mode in the ROM setup, but other than that, I have no idea. :)

Re: Proliant DL360 G8 & Server 2012R2
None of that works
I updated all the firmware on the servers
Did the OS install from DVD boot & used the suggested Smart Array Driver driver
One server was able to boot several times but after being powered off for an hr or so, would not boot into Windows. Just would get the Server2012 logo & then blue/teal screen as before
The other server took 4 tries to get the OS to boot without blue screen & only lasted 2 more restarts before again blue screening
Getting very tempted to send the servers back

Re: Proliant DL360 G8 & Server 2012R2
I did manage to get a blue screen that actually gave me an error message
PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA (libsa.sys)
find out this file is part of the driver for the B320i starage array along with hpsa2.sys

Re: Proliant DL360 G8 & Server 2012R2
On my DL380p Gen8 servers with a P420i and add-on P420 controller, I'm able to boot off a Windows Server 2012 R2 DVD and install it directly without any issues, so I think you're on the right trail with the B320i controller not being detected correctly when using the default driver from Microsoft.
Instead of using the intelligent provision install, you could also boot from the Windows disk and go through the steps to install a custom storage driver. Grab the latest B320i drivers from the HP downloads and use those. Intelligent Provisioning install seems easier though.

Re: Proliant DL360 G8 & Server 2012R2
Mixed results trying to get the servers to run. Didn't matter if you used the Intelligent Provisioning or a standard install to try & get the OS to boot after install.
Managed to get them to boot after OS install after many attempts. Ran the latest Proliant service pack & it updated all the firmware & latest drivers
Could get them to reboot 5-7times & things were looking hopeful but that was dashed & the blue screen would appear.
Would get the same message as before if you did an F8 & select no auto reboot
PAGE FAULT IN NONPAGED AREA (libsa.sys)
That file is part of the driver for the array. I am using the latest - ver 62.10.0.64
After several attempts at a restart, you would get the auto repair screen but it appeared not to be able to see the array
Wasted 10+days trying to get these blasted servers running

Re: Proliant DL360 G8 & Server 2012R2
I don't know if any of the information in this link would help, but it could be worth double-checking the AHCI mode you're using and see if anything else is useful:

Re: Proliant DL360 G8 & Server 2012R2
Made the change you sugested & did an OS reinstall thru the Intelligent Provision
The 1st server looked promising but would "blue screen" on every 2nd reboot
The other server justs goes into the OS recover mode on every restart. Can never get the OS to fully load

Re: Proliant DL360 G8 & Server 2012R2
Was hanging on this for about 4 days (2012R2 @ 360e Gen8 + B320i), but finally have solved it!
Original solution is here - yeah, it's all the 2012R2 update about. So boot your server with pressing F8 and choose "Disable Early Launch Anti-Malware Protection". Server will boot normally. Then install hotfix KB2966870. Next rebooting will run normal.
