Query: NEED DRIVERS FOR WIN SERVER 2012 R2 to install on PROLIANT DL308 GEN10 PLUS

[diego_jsp_it]

Hi everyone!

I have a HPE Proliant DL Gen10 Plus and need to install windows server 2012 r2, utilizing Raid 1, and Raid 0.

Im using these drivers: "P73557_001_gen10spp-2024.04.00.00-SPP2024040000.2024_0416.18.iso", but they doesnt recognize the logical drives.

Am I using the correct drivers? What could be the trouble here?

Thanks in advance!

According to the release notes, SPP 2024.04.00.00 does not support windows server 2012 r2.

Is there oder SPP that supports win server  2012 r2 ??  Also I need it to support Raid configurations.

Thanks!!

The DL380 Gen10 Plus is also not supported with Windows 2012R2.

See: Windows Server | HPE

Windows 2012R2 is also no longer supported by Microsoft itself:

Windows Server 2012 and 2012 R2 reaching end of support - Microsoft Lifecycle | Microsoft Learn

As there is no support from MS, HPE can not deliver the Driver or any support.

Thanks all for your replies!

my problem is the following:

A server running windows server 2012 r2 have crased (the hardware). The only thing i have to restore it, its a security copy that was made usin Windows Server Backup tool.

Im planning to restore it, and then upgrade it to windows server 2022. But so far, I can not restore it as I mentioned before. I have a PROLIANT DL308 GEN10 PLUS

If some have any ideas, other alternative to acomplish my task, they will be very wellcome!!
