10 thoughts on “ VMware vSphere on HP ProLiant Server: How to update online firmware and drivers using Service Pack (SPP)? Ian November 8, 2015. Good article! Would the CIM providers already be installed on the server if it's running the HP custom ESXi version? I am attempting to run this now and I get 10 minutes into the inventory and it fails after attempting to discover.

I'm Setting up a new server HP Proliant dl380p gen8. Its here in my rack but no HDD's I plan on Installing ESXI and putting an untangle firewall on it, then having 3 2008 R2 servers powered off as backups to our 3 primary 2008 R2 servers virtualized on another HP dl38-p gen8. I also want to use this server to make nightly incremental Disk to Disk backups of the User data on the Network Shares. As well as a monthly or quarterly complete backup. So 1 firewall, 1 file server just for backups, and 3 2008 R2 servers powered off I'll probably set up a raid 10 array out of the drives.

I'd like a hot spare as well. So i'm thinking 8 300gb drives in RAID 10 and 1 hot spare for 1.2tb usable or 10 300gb drives in RAID 10 and a hot spare for 1.5tb usble or 14 300gb drives in RAID 10 and 1 hot spare for 2. Hp Support Assistant Silent Install Ie11 on this page. 1tb usable Are these good setups? I'm assuming ESXi and HP Proliant dl380 Gen8 will play well with the RAID 10 setup. Any advise is appreciated. Well first off, I have the HP Proliant with the 25 2.5in SAS Hot Swap slots. Second The licenses i already have are 2008 R2, so i was just gonna use the VMware Converter to import them as 'cold' backups of the working servers.

I was gonna use vSphere Hypervisor ESXi Php Melody 1.8.1 Free Download. 5.5. I'm not sure about the backups yet, either a linux distro that could have the drives mounted and perform cron jobs to backup.

Or something cheap like that, although I'm open for advise. I've never used any of the Extra VMware services.

If you have that level or higher, you can use some versions of these for free for your backups. Actually, you don't need Essentials to use the free version of with ESXi, since you can use an agent to protect up to 8 ESXi VMs for free forever. You only need Essentials if you want to do agentless backups of ESXi servers.

Summary When I try to install ESXi 5.5U3 on a DL360 G6, it fails because no storage is seen. Details Hardware Server: HP Proliant DL360 G6 CPUs: 1 CPU, Intel Xeon E5506 @ 2.13GHz RAM: 48GB RAM Storage Adapter: P410i Storage: 2x 1TB HP SATA drives Storage config: RAID '10' on two drives, single 1TB 'Logical Volume' Install Process ESXi compatibility for DL360 G6: ESXi source: HPE custom ESXi 5.5 U3 from I'm booting using the ILO virtual media on an HTTP-provided ISO. This process works fine and I've had no issues with it on my local LAN. Here are some details about that generic boot process using the ILO CLI: hpiLO->power power: server power is currently: Off hpiLO->cd /map1/oemhp_vm1/cddr1 hpiLO->set oemhp_image=hpiLO->set oemhp_boot=connect hpiLO->power on After answering the usual VMware prompts, I eventually arrive at this screen and can go no farther: I've tried wiping the RAID logical volume using DBAN, just in case any prior data on there was confusing ESXi, but that changed nothing.

This also shows that the storage hardware works since I was able to see the storage using DBAN just fine. The closest related question I found so far that would be similar to this was this question:. In that case, the admin wanted a JBOD disk pass-through, which isn't possible on the HP Proliant internal storage P410i controllers. Normally I'd try loading a special HPE storage driver, but those are supposedly included on the HPE custom images. Anyone else running ESXi 5.5U3 on a DL360 G6 see this problem and get past it? Are there logs available somehow to show what's failing on the storage detection?

Thanks in advance for any help! The non-HP VMware image worked great.

What the heck? Hp Scan Software Mac 10.7. I wasn't expecting that. I grabbed ESXi 5.5. Manual For Xerox Memory Writer 6251. 0U3 from (MD5: 279685120bdb867172dc1e0c7e93514e) and the storage configuration screen showed just what I'd expect: I'm not sure what value HP is adding to those VMware images, but for Future Me or anyone else, it's worth trying the non-HP images if things don't seem to work with the HP images. UPDATE: The HP 5.5 U2 image also works. Even though 5.5 U3 is on the compatibility list for a DL360 G6, it would appear that this release doesn't actually work properly.
