FC HBA for a HP DL380P Gen8 that supports VMware ESXi 7.0 U3

[g1techno]

Does anyone know of a FC HBA compatible with DL380p Gen8 servers that would support VMware ESXi 7.0 U3?

They currently have a HP 81B HBA, but it doesn't have any support from new versions of VMware. Essentially, we are pulling these old servers out of production and putting them as production backups. To do this, we need a new HBA that is ESXi 7.0 U3 compliant.. Ideally 8GB or 16GB

Thanks!

Please find below the quickspecs and check page 49 which shows the compatible HBA for this server:-

Randomly took SN1000Q to check the compatibility and yes it is compatible with Esxi 7.0 u3. Please see below:-

You can check for other HBA's as well from that list in quickspecs.
