EH0146FARWD firmware

[ICMP_Timeout]

Hello:

I'm installing an array of HP 2.5 SAS drives into a DL380G7. I have no prior experience with Proliants servers.

The P822 controller tells me I should update the drive firmware to a minimum firmware of HDPA. The URL the controller sends me to http://hp.com/support/proliantstorage  alas has gone to the great 404 in the sky, & Mr. G is not finding a mention.

Any suggestions on where find such an update and installation tool?

Hi

I believe you mean firmware of HPDA and not HDPA,

Individual firmware:

https://support.hpe.com/hpsc/swd/public/detail?swItemId=MTX_d774bd6ff54e43c6a888db06a1#tab-history

or download the Service Pack for ProLiant (SPP) Version G7.1 image and update drive firmware using or all the firmware.

SPP is basically a bundle having all the required firmware and drivers for G7 servers.

Thank both of you for your replies.  Not sure why my searches didn't find the HD links but...

Yes, it is HPDA called for, sorry.

I looked at SPP and it sounds ideal but:

https://techlibrary.hpe.com/us/en/enterprise/servers/products/service_pack/spp/index.aspx?version=G7.1

tells me I must be entitled to use that approach. And while my dentist tells me I am now royality since I have been crowned, I don't think that's what HPE means.  So I'll pursue the more focused approachs.
