HP Proliant DL380 G8 : SD Card Problems (in iLO4)

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 have a similar (if not the same) error and I tryed everything without success. I can boot from the SD card but the SD card reader isn't recognized by the OS. (I have two identical servers and the other one, which has no issues, is able to read the SD from the OS)

Not an issue for me, just sad that I know have a permanent warning and cannot boot in IntiligentProvisionning, which I don't use anyway

Yeah, seems the same with my server, a shame for enterprise-grade hardware... and I guess I'll never learn how to use this Intelligent Provisionning thing too; I don't think I miss a lot to be honest
