I feel like such a N00B or NewB...

SmartStart 8.15 is crap for SmartArray controllers.

Per HP support download 8.60 and try again.

Works...

Thanks All.

IIRC, the POST message was clear on the matter or the server OS install
failed.  Searched the HP knowledge base and downloaded the firmware
update, removed one CPU, updated firmware, reinstalled CPU and off I
went.  Annoyed doesn't even begin to describe how I felt at the time.
Now I laugh about it.

Things I've ran into that caused os install problems.

Do you have a flash drive plugged in anywhere on the server
while running the install.

Also a bad server os DVD,

Make sure the server has all the latest updates from Compaq,
especially the P400.

HP DL380 G6 with P400 Smart Array controller.

Can not find the drives?

In BIOS array configuration I have 6 146GB SAS drives in a RAID5
logical disk.

SmartStart can not find it.

Just running Windows setup sees the drive, formats the drive but
then cannot find a drive to install the OS too??

What am I missing???

All HP did was kit the parts from their inventory warehouse by people being 
paid minimum wage or slightly better (unless they are union), and make sure the 
box powered up before it went out the door. Picking the correct firmware and 
drivers is the installer's problem, because that's why they get paid the big 
bucks!

I've been shipped brand new dual-processor servers with mismatched CPU versions 
that required firmware updates before the two CPU's could work together, so the

RE: Dumb Dumb question installing server 2008 on HP DL380 G6

2011-01-27 Thread Guyer, Don 
I'll second that. Ran into this same issue the other day with a G6 with
SAS drives in it. Server did not come with a SS disc. IIRC, v8.3 and
v8.6 worked fine (was building two at once).

 

Older versions sat at a # prompt after HP splash screen went away.

 

Good luck,

The only thing I can suggest is the obvious: Make sure you are using the
correct/newest SmartStart disc.  An older disc may not have the
necessary drivers.

Things I've ran into that caused os install problems.

Do you have a flash drive plugged in anywhere on the server while
running the install.

Also a bad server os DVD,

Make sure the server has all the latest updates from Compaq, especially
the P400.

HP DL380 G6 with P400 Smart Array controller.

Can not find the drives?

In BIOS array configuration I have 6 146GB SAS drives in a RAID5 logical
disk.

SmartStart can not find it.

Just running Windows setup sees the drive, formats the drive but then
cannot find a drive to install the OS too??

What am I missing???
