Re: VMware ESXi 3.5 on DL 180 G5
I updated bios to the latest but haven't done anything else. 4GB original HP RAM, a single Intel E5430 CPU, Smart Array p400 array controller and 4 SAS/SATA drives are installed.
any ideas?
thanks

Re: VMware ESXi 3.5 on DL 180 G5
At beginning of case I successfully load ESXi3.5u2 (ESX Server 3i version 3.5 Update 2 Installable | 13 AUG 2008 | Build 110271 ) from USB and it worked at least 1 hour without virtual machines. But it did not see embedded SATA Raid. So I have updated BIOS (Systems ROMPaq Firmware Upgrade for HP ProLiant DL180 G5 Servers ) from version dated 2008.04.28 to 2008.08.20.
After this update ESXi can not boot (The purple screen of death).
W2k3x64 are booting without problem.
if anybody would try to downgrade BIOS to 2008.04.28 version, please let know about results.

Re: VMware ESXi 3.5 on DL 180 G5
" Well Vmware do not say its supported and HP do not say either."
Doesn't mean it will not work. Have a look at vmware community white book (http://www.vm-help.com/esx/esx3.5/Whiteboxes_SATA_Controllers_for_ESX_3.5_3i.htm)
I also made ESXi working on ML150G5.
Hope this help
