SPP automatic versus interactive mode

Hi,

we have launched a new Proliant DL360 Gen10 server. We have prepared a USBKey from SPP 2021.10.0
and after its launch, to our surprise, the initial automatic/interactive option did not appear on the screen,
but immediately it is going to automatic mode:
Attemping Boot From USB DriveKey (C:)
SYSLINUX 3.75...
Starting initrd...

How to activate interactive mode or a option automatic/interactive?

Thanks

Jiri

Hi,

There has to be an option for choosing Automatic or Interactive.

https://downloads.hpe.com/pub/softlib2/software1/publishable-catalog/p429397750/v176689/Gen10SPP2021.10.0ReleaseNotes.pdf
To initiate deployment in Offline mode, Boot the server to the SPP using one of the supported methods including mounting the ISO or using a bootable USB key.
Automatic mode will by default run firmware update without any user interaction after sitting 10 seconds at the menu screen when an SPP .iso image is used to boot the server.

Have you tried from a different USB Port or different USB Key?

Thanks

Re: SPP automatic versus interactive mode

Hi Suman,

Thank you for the Release Notes you sent. I don't see a problem in them.
We tried both ports on the rear, .ISO file default and custom too. It behaves the same - see a screen attached.
