Top 20 HP Compaq ProLiant DL360 G3 Server Questions & Answers

Check and Clean Processor FAN and all cooling Fans inside the server. Check the cable connectivity of the CPU Fan on the M/B. Update server with Latest BIOS firmware.

This is a long shot, but:

• Get into BIOS settings
• System Options, Diskette Boot Control, Disabled
• Save on Exit

Machines from 2006 were really not very good at booting from USB.

Hello,

From my experience, this is an indication that your fans need replacing. If your system manager is working properly, at night if your system is not use much, the manager will put the system in a low state of operation, almost like hybernation. When a request come in to 'wake-up' the system, the fans do not spin fast enough to cool your system properly thus the errors.

Replace the fans, recheck your settings in system manager making sure the manager software is monitoring the cooling and not the os. This should solve your issue.

Good Luck

You firstly have to make your usb key bootable just google instructions on how to do that.
Set the boot order in the bios to boot from it and then transfer the image to the usb key and install from it.

Si el sistema operativo no reconoce tus disco, y ya has creado un arreglo nivel 1 o 5 y en la bios si puedes ver los dicos, el problema es posiblemente que necesites cargar los drivers de la controladora. Si puedes ver el modelo de la controladora (visible en el post) dirigete a la pagina de hp.com/support escoje el pais USA para que tengas acceso a todos los drivers, descargate el ultimo driver de tu controladora y cuando este instalando windows presiona f6 para cargar los drivers

This cant be done..

Update BIOS and COLD BOOT the Server Once.

Hi there Jim,

You will require the HP ProLiant Integrated Lights-Out Management Interface Driver for Windows Server 2003.

You can acquire this here. Let me know of any problems.

Please do not rate this reply unless I have solved your problem or your reply will not be returned to me.

Seems like either your display is gone or *********** board or FRU has some serious problem.
Please contact HP support/services.

Remove all 6 fans, and then remove the fan rack itself. Then tighten the 2 pcb thumb-screws underneath. I believe this is sometimes the reason for false 'failed fan' reports.

NO PC told at all and posted to Proliant server forum that is no PC and as such the OS is not allowed there w10 nor does it have sound chips, at all, its a server running in huge dark, no humans server farm..... so let me guess you posted to wrong forum and never told PC model sure. so windows sounds work in the test in control panel yes ! the, MP3 is complex, it can be from high data rate, source and will not play unless converted . one thing to try is use this free app called Audacity https://www.audacityteam.org/ then play it or convert it or buy a USB sound dac that can decode any sound file on earth or learn to test you PC first windows sounds work then in google type simple MP3 sound test https://file-examples.com/index.php/sample-audio-files/sample-mp3-download/ works good above so your MP3 is no good or wrong bit rate. if fails yours only , buy new DAC USB dongle now it plays them all if windows sounds are dead the sound driver is missing or on a server there is no sound chips oops. buy the DAC dongle. if only 1 MP3 fails out of 100's find a better one or buy a DAC.

Have you connected a CD drive to the machine via one of the SATA ports?

When you turn it on, does the fan come on? How about the hard drive? There is a serries of tests called POST. I amc4rying to find out what starts up and see where the problem is.

You need to be specific about the exact model of server that you're using. Features of the various generations of the HP iLO are accessed in different ways. BE SPECIFIC.

That drive has failed, is it set up with a RAID configuration? Do you have the Dell monitoring software installed? Is it set up with Hot Plug drives? If so replacing the drive with a new one will start the RAID rebuild. Otherwise one way to turn off the bleep is to reboot and go into the RAID controller configuration

It Indicating something Faulty, if you have something plugged in, remove, and reconnect, If unable to find, check device manager or event log for details, that should have some info.

If you lost everything then you've obviously reloaded all your software for the server, now you need to load your daily backup tapes onto the server so you can have mail again. you will also need to know all of your DNS's and you MX records if you're running exchange and if you don't know how to do any of it, then my suggestion is to hire a network administrator and it'll cost between $1k - $1.5k by time he's done bringing your system back online.

How big is your UPS backup. Small home / office only last a few hours before the battery drains. Their role is to allow time to save work and shut properly. Large enterprise UPS's last longer, but are dependent on battery bank size and configuration.
