Hello everyone,
I just got a DL380e G8 and I have a small problem: iLO report something wrong with the Embeded SD Card slot.
There is no SD card in the slot inside the server and I’m wondering what is this slot used for ? and can I put any SD Card in it ? is there a size limit ? where can I buy a replacement ?
I can’t seem to find the right document on HP’s website.
Could you guy help me figure it out and maybe point me to the right direction!
Thank you very much!
Problem description on iLO web interface:
Embedded Flash/SD-CARD : Controller firmware revision 2.10.00 Partition Table Read Error: Could not partition embedded media device
Which is logical since there is no SD Card in there, right ?
I just used an 8 GB off-the-shelf card I had lying around.
I’ll try it then, thanks
It was probably not a problem with the SD card reader; as I now get the error:
Controller firmware revision 2.10.00 NAND read failure: Media is in a WRITE-PROTECTED state
Even tho the SD card is not locked and the error still shows after pulling it off, the reference to the NAND make me think of a chip on the board that might be dead (but why eveything stills work then ?), might try to see if there is something in the BIOS by any chance tomorrow.
Also, It’s weird that they would group the SD Card and the NAND together…
I have a similar fault in my dl380 from my searching it can be a fault with the nand and requires a new board to make the fault go away, it’s doesn’t seem to change the functionality of the iLO though just the annoying fault
What is this NAND used for then? I thought about logs, but they still show correctly on iLO so it must be something else?
I don’t know at all, I have a feeling it’s a bit like a smart error that it’s dying but not yet dead, if you figure out a cost effective fix please let me know, I just avoid looking at my iLO and when I do I end up in a rabbit hole and then remember I don’t care enough to keep looking
