Frequently Asked Questions - ProLiant DL385 G10 HP
How do I upgrade the memory in my ProLiant DL385 G10?
To upgrade memory, power off the server, remove the top cover, and locate the DIMM slots. The system supports DDR4 registered ECC memory at speeds up to 3200 MT/s. Install DIMMs in the recommended population order, which is printed on the system board or detailed in the User Guide. Ensure the server is properly grounded and all power sources are disconnected before handling memory.
How to configure RAID?
You can configure RAID during boot by pressing F10 to enter HPE Intelligent Provisioning, then choose the array configuration tool. Alternatively, use the BIOS/Platform Configuration (RBSU) to set the embedded SATA controller to RAID mode and use the Smart Storage Administrator to create logical drives.
How to reset iLO password?
If you forget the iLO administrator password, you can recover it by pressing the iLO reset button on the system board, or by connecting to the serial port and using the rescue procedures. For security, you must disable secure boot and physically access the server. After reset, you can set a new password via iLO 5 web interface.
Which processors are compatible with the DL385 G10?
The DL385 G10 supports dual AMD EPYC 7000 series processors, including models like EPYC 7251, 7351, 7451, 7551, and the EPYC 7002/7003 generations after a firmware update. Always check the HPE QuickSpecs for the latest supported CPU list and require the appropriate iLO 5 firmware.
How do I update the server firmware?
Download the HPE SPP (Service Pack for ProLiant) from the HPE Support Center. You can use HPE iLO to mount the ISO and boot from it, or use HPE Smart Update Manager (SUM) for a direct firmware upgrade. Regular firmware updates ensure compatibility and security patches.
How can I access the remote console?
The remote console is available through HPE iLO 5. Connect to iLO's IP address via a web browser, log in, and use the Remote Console / HTML5 app. iLO 5 also supports Virtual Media to mount ISO files remotely.
What is the maximum storage capacity?
With 24 SFF or 12 LFF hot-plug drive bays, the maximum internal capacity depends on drive types. Using 30 TB SAS or SATA LFF drives, the max capacity can reach 360 TB. With 2.5-inch drives, you can use up to 30 TB each for 720 TB in 24 bays, but typical models support lower capacities. Check the QuickSpecs for validated drive sizes.
How to replace a power supply unit (PSU)?
The PSUs are hot-plug. Remove the retention latch, slide the PSU out, and insert the new one until it clicks. Use a PSU with the same wattage rating and firmware compatibility. The server automatically distributes load.
Are the drive bays hot-swappable?
Yes, all drive bays support hot-plug if a RAID controller with battery-backed cache is installed. You can remove and insert drives without powering down, provided the drive is part of a fault-tolerant RAID configuration.
How to check system health indicators?
Use HPE iLO 5 to view the integrated system health dashboard. Alternatively, the front panel has LEDs for power, health, and activity. The system posts errors in the iLO Event Log and can send alerts via SNMP or email.
