HP ProLiant DL385P Gen8 - Smart Array Controller

[scope-sorting]

Hi guys,

I have some problems with my dl385p gen8 server. After approx. two weeks of non-using the boot screen is flickering and the progress of booting stays at 10 %. Also, the LEDs of the smart array controller are blinking alternately green and red. I think the smart array controller is damaged. What would you say? Thank you in advance and happy new year!!!

Hi Suman_1978,

thank you so much for your help.

I solved my problem, by changing the battery CR2032 on the mainboard. That's all!

Stay safe!
