Server Critical Fault (Service Information: Power On Fault, System Board, AUX/Main EF

[Gflex78]

Hi,

We have one DL 380 Gen9 (M3G77A) with dual PSU 754381-001 800 W firmware 1.00.

We bought the GPU kit with and the GPU riser. We put in a HP nVidia Tesla P100 16GB PCIe 3.0 x16 Q0E21A and when we power on the server we receive the error

Server Critical Fault (Service Information: Power On Fault, System Board,  AUX/Main EFUSE Regulator 1 (10h))

Any help would be appreciated.

Hi,

This should be related to Power cabling or Power supplies.  Usually we see this if power cables are not connected properly or insuffucient power.

Please check the QuickSpecs page# 31.  Also this advisory.

Thank You!

Hi Summan!

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.. Found this note

For doublewide GPU support you are required to have at least 1x1400W Power Supply (720620-B21),

We will replace them and post and update.

Hi Suman,

We replaced the PSU with 2 x 720620-B21 HP 1400W Flex Slot Platinum Plus Hot Plug Power Supply according to the table below. But we still get the same error. The  advisory that you post is regarding Gen 10 servers and the firmware cannot be updated with firmware from that link and I cannot find any firmware to update for the 720620-B21 HP 1400W Flex Slot Platinum Plus Hot Plug Power Supply. I don’t know how they can have different firmware. One has 1.01 and has 1.10

Do you know if there is the same issue with 720620-B21 and if where we can find firmware updates for 720620-B21 ?

If there is no issue, do you have any ideas on what else it could be?

Hi,

I could not find any firmware for that Power supply.
But for your issue, I would suggest to update Firmwares via SPP.
If still not fixed, please get a support case logged with HPE.

Hi Suman,

The idea to just put in the PSU with the 1.10 firmware never crossed our mind.

We tried it today and the server boots.

Really strange that the firmware update for the PSU cannot be applied on Gen9 servers.

And there is no update for it in PSP.

Now we are trying to find another PSU with firmware 1.10

Thanks for your help, you receive a gold star in my book!

I don't have a contract/warranty with HP and thus can't download the SPP. Do you know of another way to potentially upgrade the PSU to 1.10 so I can use the Tesla card I got?
