I have a HP ML330 G6 with a Smart Array P212<br />
<br />
Today all Virtual servers stopped without warning. &nbsp;I shouldn't shutdown VMware either. &nbsp;needed to turn off and on.<br />
<br />
When it booted up it kept on stopping at Loading Module HPSA.<br />
<br />
Started writing this question and on the 5th reboot it booted.<br />
<br />
Though i'd still like to know why just in case it happens again.<br />
<br />

VMware ESXi 4.1 stopped booting at loading module HPSA

VMware, a software company founded in 1998,  was one of the first commercially successful companies to offer x86 virtualization. The storage company EMC purchased VMware in 1994. Dell Technologies acquired EMC in 2016. VMware’s parent company is now Dell Technologies.

VMware has many software products that run on desktops, Microsoft Windows, Linux, and macOS, which allows the virtualizing of the x86 architecture.  Its enterprise software hypervisor for servers, VMware vSphere Hypervisor (ESXi), is a bare-metal hypervisor that runs directly on the server hardware and does not require an additional underlying operating system.
