1. Press F10 Option during POST screen for Intelligent Provisioning => Maintanance Option => Smart Storage Administrator(Embeded Application) => Select Controller  here you can see your newly installed HDD.  Now you are able create new VD/ Expand your existing VD(If supported configuration).

2. you can download Smart Storage Administrator Application from HPE support site HPSSA. install the application, now you can able to check and modify your VD.

Hi,

if the Disk is discovered, it shows up automatically in iLO (Picture 2) under "Physical View".

The Logical View shows up after the configuration.

See this Video, on how to configure the Raid (Controller): https://youtu.be/tGCCW0VfxO8?si=3mjHigCJ2dlb5xjE

If the Disk is not being discovered, something with the Drive connection is wrong.

Hello,

What if the drives were connected to the embedded SATA AHCI controller?

If it were connected to the Smart Array controller, then reseat and check if they are detected by the controller in the server's BIOS.

Regards,

[Alek20]

Please installAgentless Management service

Tell me where and how I should install the service, I understand correctly that on the server itself, then I can see the data through ilo in the Storage tab?

Dear  Alek20

Please download the HPE ESXi Agentless Management Bundle . Installation instruction given below.

Installation:

Installing Components on a vSphere 7.0 Host Using vSphere Command-Line Interface (vSphere CLI or esxcli)

You can use the vSphere CLI in conjunction with Component packages.

Prerequisites
Before you can update a vSphere 7.0 host from the command line, you must have access to a machine on which you can run the VMware vSphere Command-Line Interface 7.0 (vSphere CLI). You can install the vSphere CLI on your Microsoft Windows or Linux system. For information about importing or installing the vSphere CLI 7.0, see the VMware vSphere Command-Line Interface Installation and Reference Guide.

Procedure

1. Power off any virtual machines that are running on the host and place the host into maintenance mode.
2. Transfer the component onto the ESXi host local path, or extract it onto an online depot.
3. Install the component on the ESXi host.
   • Install remotely from client, with component on ESXi host:
        esxcli -s <server> -u root -p mypassword software component apply -d <ESXi local path><component.zip>
   • Install from ESXi host, with component on ESXi host:
        esxcli software component apply -d <ESXi local path><component.zip>
4. After the component is installed, reboot the ESXi host for the updates to take effect.
5. (Optional) Verify that the component is installed on your ESXi host.
      esxcli -s <server> -u root -p mypassword software component list
6. (Optional) Remove or uninstall the component.  <component name> can be identified by listing the components as shown in #5.
      esxcli -s <server> -u root -p mypassword software component remove -n <component name>

  Installing Components on a vSphere 7.0 Host Using VMware vSphere LifeCycle Manager (vLCM)

The components can also be installed from VMware vSphere LifeCycle Manager that is included in the 7.0 VMware vCenter Server Appliance.  For more information and detailed instructions, see the VMware vSphere LifeCycle Manager Administration Guide.

Уважаемый Alek20

Загрузите пакет HPE ESXi Agentless Management Bundle. Инструкция по установке приведена ниже.

Установка:

Установка компонентов на узле vSphere 7.0 с помощью интерфейса командной строки vSphere (vSphere CLI или esxcli)

Интерфейс командной строки vSphere можно использовать в сочетании с пакетами компонентов.

Предварительные требования
Прежде чем обновлять узел vSphere 7.0 из командной строки, необходимо иметь доступ к компьютеру, на котором можно запустить интерфейс командной строки VMware vSphere 7.0 (vSphere CLI). Интерфейс командной строки vSphere можно установить в системе Microsoft Windows или Linux. Сведения об импорте или установке vSphere CLI 7.0 см. в Руководстве по установке и справочному руководству по установке интерфейса командной строки VMware vSphere.

Процедура

1. Выключите все виртуальные машины, работающие на узле, и переведите узел в режим обслуживания.
2. Перенесите компонент на локальный путь хоста ESXi или извлеките его в оперативное хранилище.
3. Установите компонент на хост ESXi.
   • Установите удаленно с клиента, с компонентом на хосте ESXi:
     esxcli -s <сервер> -u root -p программный компонент mypassword apply -d <локальный путь ESXi><component.zip>
   • Установка с хоста ESXi, с компонентом на хосте ESXi:
     программный компонент esxcli apply -d <локальный путь ESXi><component.zip>
4. После установки компонента перезагрузите хост ESXi, чтобы обновления вступили в силу.
5. (Дополнительный) Убедитесь, что компонент установлен на узле ESXi.
   esxcli -s <сервер> -u root -p список компонентов программного обеспечения mypassword
6. (Дополнительный) Извлеките или удалите компонент. <имя компонента> можно определить, перечислив компоненты, как показано в #5.
   esxcli -s <сервер> -u root -p mypassword программный компонент remove -n <имя компонента>

  Установка компонентов на узле vSphere 7.0 с помощью VMware vSphere LifeCycle Manager (vLCM)

Компоненты также можно установить из VMware vSphere LifeCycle Manager, входящего в состав VMware vCenter Server Appliance 7.0. Дополнительные сведения и подробные инструкции см. в Руководстве по администрированию VMware vSphere LifeCycle Manager.
