You can ignore this error message, the kernel complains because there is no PS/2 device.

Check if your ILO NAND is damaged:

Re: HP Pro Liant DL 380p Gen8  server. Raid Hw-PMU resources.

Re: HP Pro Liant DL 380p Gen8  server. Raid Hw-PMU resources.

It's not that difficult.

Update ILO firmware to 2.75 and check ILO health.

If there is the NAND issue visible (ILO health = degraded), Intelligent Provisioning will most likely not work.

 

Try to pull the power plugs for a complete ILO reset, then use the link to format the NAND.


Hope this helps!

Re: HP Pro Liant DL 380p Gen8  server. Raid Hw-PMU resources.

i am reading what i can, i can't follow the steps. 

in this link

https://support.hpe.com/hpesc/public/docDisplay?docId=emr_na-c04996097

i stuck on step 2. I can't identify the correct product. 

Step 1. Upgrade the iLO 4 firmware to version 2.61. To download the firmware. The latest version of the iLO 4 firmware is available as follows:

Note: For ESXi hosts booting from the Embedded SD Card (Gen8/Gen9)- it is strongly recommended to perform this step with the ESXi OS shutdown.

  1. Click the following link:

    https://support.hpe.com/hpesc/public/home

  2. Enter a product name (e.g., "DL380 Gen9") in the text search field and wait for a list of products to populate. From the products displayed, identify the desired product and click on the Drivers & software icon to the right of the product.

Download the latest version here

https://support.hpe.com/hpsc/swd/public/detail?swItemId=MTX_7f55d032fd2046baaa592640f7

run it, select extract to get the *.bin file.

Connect to the ILO webpage and update using this *.bin file.

Power down, pull the power plugs, wait, reconnect and select "format NAND" on the ILO page.

Check ILO log if this was successful.

If yes, re-install Intelligent Provisioning version 1.71

Re: HP Pro Liant DL 380p Gen8  server. Raid Hw-PMU resources.

Back to the original question about adding disks - you may download the SPP

https://techlibrary.hpe.com/us/en/enterprise/servers/products/service_pack/spp/index.aspx?version=Gen8.1

boot from and start SSA from there.

You may also try

https://techlibrary.hpe.com/us/en/enterprise/servers/products/service_pack/spp/index.aspx?version=gen10.2020.09.0

if you cannot get the version above, it *may* work too.

 

You can also use this:

https://support.hpe.com/hpsc/swd/public/detail?swItemId=MTX_321a88714bff4279abf175b9bd

Offline HPE Smart Storage Administrator (HPE SSA)


Hope this helps!

Re: HP Pro Liant DL 380p Gen8  server. Raid Hw-PMU resources.

Hi, 

 

This looks like windows installation, i have linux installed, 

this OS -->      http://www.koozali.org/

this koozali is installed and running

this is the main issue. this system does have command prompt using putty only and its own menu to create usiers and some basic stuff.

Please read my comment again. Run the *.exe anywhere and extract it.

You only need the included *.bin file.


Hope this helps!
