[Pranjal_1511]

Hi,

Can you please let me know whether RHEL 7 ( latest version ) will be supported by DL 380 G5 ?

From the ProLiant RHEL support matrix

DL380 G5

RHEL 6.0
RHEL 5.0
RHEL 4.4 (quad core processors) ¹
RHEL 4.2 (dual core processors only) ¹
RHEL 3.6 (Dual-Core Intel® Xeon® Processor 5100 Series)

RHEL 7 was never tested on this platform.

Hi Jimmy,

Thanks much !

I think the issue you will run across is the cciss driver for the smart array controller is no longer included with RHEL7, The driver was changed from a block device driver to a SCSI driver called hpsa and the older controllers are not supported by the new driver.
