Hi to all out there using HP DL380 G4 servers, i found a way to get the Digium TE410P with older firmware running on a HP-Compaq DL380 G4 Server! Here's the step-by-step description: 1. download the latest BIOS (in my case it was 4.04 from date: 06/02/2005) for the HP-Compaq DL380 G4 using the "Systems ROMPaq Firmware Upgrade Diskette for HP ProLiant DL480 G4 (P51) Servers" Link:

Hi folks, I've just spent about six hours messing around with an HP DL585 G2 server trying to get CentOS to go. This box is a dual-CPU with dual cores and 10GB of RAM total. According to the datasheet, the POST screens, and the BIOS, it has the Broadcom embedded NICs in it. The problem boils down to the installed OS (4.4 x86_64) not seeing the NICs. If you do an lspci on the system

Hello Everyone, I recently installed CentOS 5.5 x86_64 on a brand new ProLiant DL380 G7. I have identical OS software running reock-solid on two other DL380 ProLiant servers, but they are G6 models, not G7. On the G7, the installation went perfectly and the machine ran great for about 2 weeks, when it just seemed to "stop". The system stopped responding on the network, and there was

Was there any resolution on this I also have a TE410P in an box with an Intel E7501 chipset? -Vickers -------- Original Message -------- Subject: RE: [Asterisk-Users] Re: TE410P card in an HP-Compaq DL380 G4 server Date: Tue, 8 Feb 2005 11:13:24 +1030 From: Peter Childs <peter.childs@nec.com.au> Reply-To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion

I have CentOS 6.x installed on a "HP ProLiant DL380 G5" server. It has eight 750GB drives in a hardware RAID6 array. Its acting as a host for a number of OpenVZ containers. Seems like every time I reboot this server which is not very often it sits for hours running a disk check or something on boot. The server is located 200+ miles away so its not very convenient to look at. Is

On a Compaq DL360 G1 w/ dual PIII 1.27's I installed Centos 5 minimal and then a yum update When I do a "uname -a" I get this Linux tstsrvr.abbacomm.net 2.6.18-8.1.3.el5 #1 SMP Mon Apr 30 19:55:44 EDT 2007 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux When I do a rpm -qa | grep kern* I get this kernel-devel-2.6.18-8.1.3.el5 kernel-2.6.18-8.1.3.el5 kernel-headers-2.6.18-8.1.3.el5 It is interesting

Hi, all: I can't make my HP DL380 G2 servers to boot off local disk by using "default local" line in my PXE boot menu. For fully automated server setups, I have configured all my DL380 servers to always do PXE boot. By manipulating the default boot option in boot menu, I can control a server whether to install a new OS via kickstart or just boot off local disk. This scheme works

greetings does the list at this url cover *all* options or are there some hidden or newer ones by chance? http://www.centos.org/docs/4/html/rhel-ig-x8664-multi-en-4/ap-bootopts.html i am playing with CentOS 4 on some Compaq dual PIII hardware. The first unit is an 1850R with dual 500Mhz. If you need more info please let me know. it is a basic unit with raid controller and a Gig of DRAM etc.

Hi, Has anyone had success using a TE410P card in an HP-Compaq DL380 G4 server? For me the card is detected fine, but the system just never sees an interrupt from the card. I've tried everything I can think of. The card definitely works. Its Fedora Core, but we also tried a stock 2.6.10 kernel. We tried with and without Hyperthreading, with "noapic", we disabled all the

Hi All I will need to install CentOS 5.3 on HP DL380 R05 server with RAID-1 required. I am a newbie to CentOS / HP servers, need your help: - Does CentOS 5.3 work smoothly with HP DL380 server especially recognizing SAS disks and hardware RAID-1 features? From you experience, do you have to use HP Storage Drivers provided for RedHat Enterprise Linux 5? - How is HP

I'm looking at ordering a server from HP. I checked around on Google and found in the Wiki that the ProLiant DL380 is supposed to be known to work with *. I'm going to get a price quote on the following setup: HP ProLiant DL380 G4 Server w/ the following options: Intel Xeon 3.20GHz/1MB 2GB REG PC2-3200 (2 X 1GB) HP ProLiant Battery Backed Write Cache Enabler for SA6i RAID 1 drive set HP

I''ve got a client demanding the use of HP DL380 G5''s, for various historical reasons, for a server room. I''m going nuts trying to figure out if the available CPU''s for them support VT, so I can avoid building them a separate Windows box. Unfortunately, the local web proxy is overloaded, so actually browsing the JavaScript/image loaded web pages for HP is

The HP DL380 G5 (like many rack servers) has no AMP Mate-n-Lok connector available to attach to a card that needs more power than the PCI bus can provide, like the TDM400P when FXS modules are used. HP has confirmed that there is no part they sell to give you such a connector, and Digium says their business edition folks got it to work, but only by doing nasty warranty-voiding things to the

Good afternoon everyone, I''m trying to compile the xen 2.6.32.x pv_ops kernel on centos 5.5 with i386 quad core xeon system (HP DL380 G3). Having some issues during the kernel compile one of which related to intel agp so I just removed it from .config and didn''t come across it again. This error here has got me stumped though: drivers/built-in.o: In function

Hi We deployed centos 4.8 on HP DL380 G2, G3 and G4 servers (same number of cpus). The same software is running on all servers. Only on G2 servers we see a low cpu utilization combined with high load-average. For example, during the same time of day and same workload, on a G2 I see a l-avg of 11.31 and on a G4 I see 2.68. The server response time seems unchanged and we don't have any problem
