I have several time try to install the os red hat 7.5 on HP proliant BL 420c gen 8 server with Inteligent provisioning but there is no image showed.

IP version is below 2.00 and spp version is 2017.04.00

so please suggest what steps should I follow???

You do not need Intelligent Provisioning to install the OS

Hello,

Yes, you can install directly without Intelligent provisioning.

Thanks

yes, I will try to install the OS directly but array controller did not show.

In this case, I did not set up any RAID.

My question is why did not show the HDD at the time of OS installation.

In BIOS array controller is fine. I have already selected the array controller but did not any change.

Now I just install the OS in one drive.

It's not good practice. Why this problem is showed. I have updated the firmware post-production SPP 8.1 because of its post-production gen 8 servers.

Hello 

While installing the OS please try selecting the driver and check. Else log a support ticket with HPE. We may need to check the logs.

Thanks,
