In my case the servers had really ancient versions of iLO – “1.87 ” – so I upgraded them via the iLO webpage. And I sorted of worked around the pulsating logo problem.įor the pulsating logo issue apparently the fix is to upgrade iLO first and then run the SPP. I was able to work around the pink screen by using an older version (for instance, I was using 2015.04 and that failed but 2014.09 worked). I couldn’t find any solutions for the servers that power off (I used SPP version 2015.04, 2014.09, 2014.02 – same results for all). For instance some servers simply power off once the SPP CD boots, others give me a Pink Screen of Death, and yet others simply hang with the pulsating HP logo. Interesting thing about the firmware upgrades is that even between servers of the same model, when upgrading with the same Service Pack for Proliant (SPP) CD version, I get different errors. Side by side I have also been upgrading the iLO and ROM of our LeftHand/ StoreVirtual boxes following which I upgrade them from LeftHand OS 8.5 to 12.0. Past two weeks I have been upgrading the iLO and ROM of all our servers (a bunch of HP DL 360s basically – Gen6 to Gen8) following which I upgrade them from ESXi 4.1 to 5.5.
