Release R100.1

[joe]

Hi Team
I 'm trying to install OXE software R100.1 (n25348b) on HP DL160 Gen10 server.

When started either on SOT or PC installer, am getting error
warning: undi_close() failed1
[linux-bzImage, setup=0x3200, size=0x349a60]
probing EDD (edd=off to disable) ok bytes

and it stuck there,, please assist.

NOTE: Its a new server never used before

Are you installing this as a GAS (Generic Appliance Server)?

[joe]

NO. just as it is.. school me on that, do i need to install GAS software im seeing on the portal fisrt and then install the OXE software? Please advise

[joe]

or if i install GAS software everything will work ???

[frank]

From what I know, ALE does no longer support direct hardware installations due to the differences and changes in hardware type over time.
The GAS method was implemented (basically OXE Linux VM running on a Linux HOST) so the Linux host could manage directly the hardware, multiple power supplies, NIC, drives, etc... I'd say give it a shot using GAS Installation in SOT... And read the doc

Thanks Frank
Will do that and come back with report either i face a challenge or not

Hi Frank
I load the SUSE and GAS per instructions, getting the aluid information and send it ALE. They send me .swk and .ice files. I put OPS in user4/backup/OPS and also load from swinst .. put .ice on /opt/sws_lic as instructed by the manual. The software counter from spadmin shows what i ordered but im seeing 30 days warning

Is there somewhere am missing it?

[joe]

especially this .ice files i dont understand them.. never used before

[frank]

I can't really help if I can t check the system myself.
It's kind of you telling me "My car is not working"... would be hard for a mechanic to give you any advice with this piece of info..

Hi Frank
