• Expansion / Upgrade ProLiant DL380 G5 and ProLiant DL360 G5

  Hi all, we have two servers, Proliant DL380 G5 with SmartArray 400 and Proliant DL360 G5 with SmartArray 200icontroller controller, expand us on the disks, memory and cards network, the problem is that after we see the documentation which is sometimes wrong and don't know not the limitations of each of the parties, the issues are:

  Proliant DL380 G5 SmartArray 400:
  - STORAGE: up to 8 SAS / SATA, not clear what size that can be used with this controller, we understand that up to 500 GB SATA 7200 RPM and maximum 2 TB SAS 7200 RPM, we currently use with 146 GB drives to 10,000 rpm, whose original documentation is the maximum allowed value.
  -MEMORY: Up to 64 GB modules of maximum memory up to 8 GB.
  - NETWORK: update with PCI Express, support cards that I can find are HP NC110T PCI Express and PCI-Express HP NC373 HP NC360T PCI-Express.

  Proliant DL360 G5 SmartArray 200i:

  - STORAGE: up to 4 SAS / SATA controller supports only 200i SmartArray four drives in RAID 0, 1, 1 + 0 if we wanted to expand to six bays that are available on the disk server, it would change the controller and memory. Yet, the size of disk maximum supported based on the documentation is 72 GB SAS and SATA drive 60 GB, but looking it seems as if you agree at least 300 Gb SAS disks at 10 000 rpm and up to 500 GB 7200 RPM.
  - MEMORY: up to 64 GB maximum memory modules up to 8 GB.
  - NETWORK: update with PCI Express, support cards that I can find are HP NC110T PCI Express and PCI-Express HP NC373 HP NC360T PCI-Express.

  This is what I have gathered and what interests me in the expansion and to say that the documentation I found to give the feeling of this conflict, is perhaps by the dates of their procedures, but before you make a payment would guarantee the purchase. Also getting information guides, manuals and forums, I have also consulted compatibiliy HP Proliant Server Guide, so I have consutlado with HP before purchasing, but have yet to receive an answer.

  A greeting and thank you very much

  Hello jranerosc. I think you'd have better luck trying Business Forums of HP. You should get more specific help.

• Installation of VMware ESX/ESXI 4.1 on HP Proliant DL360 G4

  Hello

  I think to buy an old HP Proliant DL360 G4 machine with 2 Xeon 3.6 GHz processors and 4 GB of RAM.  I intend to install VMware ESX or ESXI 4.1 on it.

  I read some reviews of VMware and other products of the hypervisor and all say that these 64-bit Xeons have no VT support option and therefore cannot run 64-bit Windows guest OS.

  Since I just use it as test environment learn more about Windows Server 2008.  I would like to know if I can install ESX 4.1 on the HP DL360 G4 and if so, can I install client Server 2008 32-bit Windows OS on top?

  Another machine, that I'm looking is the Dell Poweredge 2850, which has the same processor and roughly the same features as the DL360 G4.  So I want to know what a Xeon with no VT - x 64-bit is limitation of technology with regard to the installation of the virtual machines based on Windows on it.

  Thanks for any help.

  The Xeon 3.6 have VT - X, so you will not be able to run 64-bit OS comments, as you found it- http://ark.intel.com/Product.aspx?id=28019.  You would be OK for customers 32 bits, but you would be prevented from running Windows 2008 R2, because it is 64-bit only.   At this point, I wouldn't bother with a test server that cannot run 64-bit guests.  If you want to stick with a server-class machine I keep watch or watch a white box - vm - Help.com - see the list of the white box.

• ESX 4.1 on HP Proliant DL360 G7 + Smartarray 410i

  Hello

  I try to install ESXi 4.1 (downloaded from the HP site) on HP Proliant DL360 G7, but Setup ESXi having problems with detection of RAID. The logical unit of the smartarray is detected, but the size of the capacity is 0 (displays 0.00 B in the screen of the Installer). Is this a known problem, how can I fix?

  P. S.

  I also tried to install the version no HP of ESXi, same problem.

  Everything also tried installing CenOS, fine

  Thank you

  ESX (i) is limited to 2 TB - 512 bytes / LUN. The ACU can take the table and divide it into logical LUNS that ESX (i) can then use to create data warehouses.

• HP ProLiant DL360 G5 - should "fully buffered" memory modules ECC?

  Hello

  I hope I'm asking in the right forum, and I hope that my question isn't distracting.

  We have 2 servers ESX 3.5 clocked at 2 servers "HP ProLiant DL360 G5" with 4 GB of RAM each.

  We bought 4 GB of RAM to each server.

  I understand that we need ECC DDR2-667 RAM, but I don't know if "fully buffered" modules more expensive are necessary.

  Hello

  HP have a few useful pages for their servers, I keep these around as reference, they are called Quickspecs... lists lots of interesting information about the server and its components..., it's the quickspec for the DL360 G5 it seems only the fully buffered collection list... so you may be stuck with requiring that...

• HP ProLiant DL360 G6: HP ProLiant DL360 G6, recommendations of Pci-e card

  Hi, I like to try this server friendly hp (with WIN7) for music production and need some Pci-e cards. Need to FireWire (half Pci-e slot) and connection for 2 monitor machine... maybe better graphics (size Pci - e) card with the digital (Dvi or something like that). I'm not sure that I can get 2 monitor to this DL360 G6 without the better graphics card?

  Well, I can buy some FireWire or do I HP stuff, ideas? FireWire 400 is okay, enough for my project

  And what Pci-e-type graphics card should work in this machine? I don't need a lot of power, only 2 monitor with 1920 x 1080 resolution.

  -Aclac

  And finally... I got card (FireWire 1394 IEEE 1394 VIA VT6315) in trials. Now Win7 running with 2 monitor and my audio interface (RME ff800) has connected through this new card. I have tested only 8 hours, but everything seems to be ok. Maybe, maybe soon I turn my studio with this material huge serverbased

• HP proliant DL360 G3 ESXi Question

  I bought a HP proliant DL 360 G3 for my lab and so far have been able to install ESXi and it stand up a race.  I can get to it by the client, but the problem is to create a new virtual machine... Windows Setup said that he did not find any hard disk?  ESXi reades the data store, then why can not the windows install, see hard drives?  What should I do to fix this?  Thanks in advance.

  The XP cd does not have the SCSI drivers to recognize the Buslogic or LSI SCSC automatons used in its ESX virtual machines. If you have created your VM with a type of buslogic SCSI adapter, you will need to download an image of a diskette of drivers from the link below.

  http://www.VMware.com/download/server/drivers_tools.html

  Then

  (1) (copy the file FLP to your ESX Server (you can put it on the VMFS data store).)

  (2) change your VM and change the diskette to use an image file. Then navigate to the file FLP. Make sure that the connected to the power supply is turned on.

  (3) turn on your virtual machine. During the installation of Windows at the right time, press F6 to add drivers for storage and then load the driver for the drive of the virtual machine.

• NETWORK Intel 82567LM in ESXi5 card support

  Hi all

  I would like to build a test lab using the multiple HP 8000 CMT model (I have my reasons for that particular line). Everything seems to be OK, but I have my doubts about the 82567LM listed Integrated NIC. It is not listed in the VMware HCL, but the same I can't find 82566DM line in the list and I have a HP 7900 SFF which works very well with ESXi 5. Maybe I lack knowledge or experience with HCL, but I can't find the necessary information.

  Can someone confirm if this NETWORK card works?

  Thank you!

  I buy the device and the NETWORK card it works very well with ESXi 5.1:

• HP DL360 G4 - noisy fans

  My HP ProLiant DL360 G4 has really noisy fans and I think they work 80-100% (I guess). I searched the forum and understand I need drivers for HP health status.

  So I downloaded this version:

  VMware ESXi 4.1 Update 1 HP custom Installable ISO Image

  4.1_U1_Apr_2011_ESXi_HD - USB - SDImgeInstlr_Z7550_00096.iso
  File size: 430 830 KB
  File type: iso
  Md5sum: 60f66fdc31c8d4ef899f97d6d7deab24

  But it has not reduced the fan speed after installation. I have to configure, or do I have to install any additional software on the server of VMware? Or is it something the BIOS setting?

  Please tell me how to solve this problem. I'm totally lost and had a headache now.

  Thanks in advance!

  PS. a data center solution is not an option right now.

  Sorry, I mixed up my units of measure. How about 43.333. Not exactly, I want a 110 degrees Celcius sauna.

  You may be able to get the foam baffle of a music/provider store.

  I don't remember what was available in the G4 series for monitoring. Make sure that the CIM providers are enabled. Tab Configuration / software / advanced settings. I don't remember what article it is in, but there it is.

  I would also add a temperature alarm remotely. It takes a few minutes for the temperature enough to cause damage, particularly in a small room.

• Basic of the NAC deployment question

  Hello

  Do I have reason to assume that at least 2 devices - a server and Manager must consist of a NAC deployment? or is the manager, an application running on a Windows Server? the Manager can run on the same machine as the server?

  My second question concerns Cisco Trust Agent and clean access Agent. CTA has actually managed by CAA? from what I see, CTA was part of the old framework of the NAC until they start using devices.

  Many thanks in advance,

  DOM

  Manager and the server can run on both PC or Cisco devices, which are in fact HP ProLiant DL140 G3 or HP ProLiant DL360 G5 PCs ;) You will need two devices in all cases.

  Second question - no one knows what will happen with all technology in the future. Is it completely replaced by MS NAP? The framework of the NAC is cancelled? Two Cisco solutions are not perfect. What customers actually need, is to have all the features of the NAC appliance to operate directly on the routers and Cisco switches. No clean access server no need in this case, only managing! And the OOB mode which is difficult to set up, support and troubleshoot will disappeared. The NAC framework is executed directly on Cisco devices, but it's not feature-REACH as NAC Appliance.

• Windows Server 2008 R2, with two Windows Storage Server 2003 Standard: How can I add the MAC authentication on top of Active Directory authentication for a storage servers?

  I have two running Windows Storage Server 2003 storage servers in a domain R2 Windows Server 2008 Standard.  On top of the Active Directory authentication, I want to add authentication of MAC address for the access to one of the storage servers.  In this scenario, an authenticated user is unable to log on to the target storage server unless the user is also on one of the computers MAC address accepted.  All domain users will have access to other folders and files as configuration storage server in Active Directory.  I already have a user access to installation by the permissions for folders on the storage server target, but I still want to restrict access to specific computers as well.  For what it's worth the server hardware is HP Proliant DL360 G5 for the Standard Server 2008 R2 and server HP Proliant DL185 G5 for two Storage Server 2003 computers.  I don't want to have MAC address authentication as the main means of access control to the network, only for the storage server a as an addition to control Active Directory.

• ESXi 5.5 - unable to connect to the management network

  I've been using ESXi for v3.  I have a small cluster of HP DL360 G5 where I was using ESXi 5.1 update 1.  I brought a new DL 360 G5 into the mix and decided to install 5.5.  After the installation, I'm going to set up the management network as usual and even after a reboot, I'm unable to access the site via http or the vSphere client.  For help, I installed the version of HP with CIM providers and I installed the stock VMware 5.5 with current pilot Rollup and they all exhibit the same behavior.  It starts fine, but I can't connect to the management network.  Curiously, however, they address IP does not respond to a ping.  I installed the 5.1 update 1 on the same server and it works fine.  Does anyone have an idea on what's going on?  Are there recommended troubleshooting steps?  It's strange to me because the ESXi has always been very reliable on HPs.

  Thank you - Greg

  Hi Greg,.

  Welcome to the community of VMware,

  To begin with, the latest version of ESXi, VMware supports the Proliant DL360 G5 has ESXi 5.0 U3.
