How many hours my server worked?
Hi everybody
Is there a way to know how many hours a refurbished server (Proliant DL380 Gen8) has worked in the past?
A customer bought a used server and would like to know how many hours it has "on its shoulders".

I knew that somehow it is possible to detect how many hours the hard drives have been turned on. This would be enough for me. I currently have VMWare ESXi 7 installed

Hello,
If the server is refurbished, we will not be able to retrieve the worked data.
Cheers...

Re: How many hours my server worked?
Whether it's new or refurbished should make no difference. I'm not asking to know the warranty, but a command to know how many hours a hard disk has worked (which I know were installed together with the server)
