I'm not totally familiar with IP, but the BIOS should be set up for uEFI mode. Make sure SecureBoot is _<em>disabled</em>_ during the install and post install until you have all your drivers set up.<br><br>Boot back into the BIOS and enable SecureBoot.<br><br>That should do it.
</div>


<div>
just a simple thought here, have you tried to install windowsvia the CD drive. in my experience i have installed software with CD boot on servers with no issue
</div>


<div>
&gt;My main issue is that I can't seem to boot to a thumb drive or an ISO in UEFI mode.<br />
<br />
I'm baffled by that statement since installing via IP does not boot from a thumb drive, it boots from IP and then from the disk array.<br />
<br />
There is a video here, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k7JWlZ__ILo" rel="ugc">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k7JWlZ__ILo</a>&nbsp;- no idea why they filmed it rather than using screen capture via iLO especially as the URL actually has ILo at the end

Forgive me andyalder. What I meant was I can't get the IP to boot to a thumb drive during the install. It boots to IP fine. I am following the steps in the video correctly it seems. For good measure, I will delete the array again, and start over this morning. This will make #4.&nbsp;
</div>


<div>
You mean it doesn't see the thumb drive after going into IP? In that case I would use an ISO on a PC instead and use the network share method. It's rather fussy about the file system if done by USB stick.
</div>


<div>
Based on the video (excellent andyalder), IP does it all without booting the flash drive. No mention of making the flash drive bootable just putting the installer files on it.<br><br>Flash starts process starts about 7 minutes into the video.
</div>


<div>
So I went with the Network share AND a different thumb drive (tried it twice). it goes through the steps to "Waiting to be processes 0%" for about 5 minutes and then kicks me to "Perform Maint" button. If I reboot it starts the process over again.
</div>


<div>
In that case you may need to clear the RESTful API state, see <a href="https://support.hpe.com/hpesc/public/docDisplay?docId=emr_na-a00028474en_us" rel="ugc">https://support.hpe.com/hpesc/public/docDisplay?docId=emr_na-a00028474en_us</a>&nbsp;.
</div>


<div>
Normally you can't use virtual media like that without an iLO advanced license. Did you try resetting RESTful?
</div>


<div>
I'm not sure what RESTful is. I reset the iLO setting completely a couple of times, however. Towards the end, I reset about everything I could out of desperation. Everytime I work with HPE support and iLO I discover something new I didn't know it had.<br>Thanks again for being so attentive to my question.
</div>


<div>
I'm not sure what RESTful is either, but if IP hangs that document about resetting the RESTful API often sorts it out. <br />
<br />
IP and iLO are not closely related, iLO is the baseboard management controller, IP is a cut down Linux embedded in an EPROM.<br />
<br />
&quot;Waiting to be processes&quot; rather than &quot;Waiting to be processed&quot; suggests a bit error.

We have a new HP DL380 Gen10 server running 4 SAS 2.5 drives off of a 480i RAID controller. I have it set to run RAID 10. I am trying to setup Win server 2019 using Intelligent Provisioning but am having no joy.<br />
I updated the firmware, BIOS, and loaded the newest IP image from HPs site. I have no problem getting RAID to setup on the drives. In fact, I have deleted the array and reconfigured it just in case. <br />
I have set the BIOS back to default.<br />
I have completely reset the IP (intelligent provisioning) config to factory to erase any old config that may be in there.<br />
My main issue is that I can't seem to boot to a thumb drive or an ISO in UEFI mode. I can load Windows when the BIOS is in legacy mode. It acts like it doesn't see the thumb drive but it allows me to choose the file I want to use as I am setting up the &quot;job&quot;.<br />
I have tried different drives and different images; fat32 and NTFS.<br />
I am at a loss. Any ideas?

Can't install Windows on new HP DL380 Gen10 ProLiant server

Servers are computing devices that are similar to desktop computers in that they have the same basic components, but are significantly different in size, configuration and purpose. Servers are usually accessed over a network, and many run unattended, without a computer monitor, input device, audio hardware or USB interfaces. Many servers do not have a graphical user interface (GUI), and are configured and managed remotely. Servers typically include hardware redundancy such as dual power supplies, RAID disk systems, and ECC memory, along with extensive pre-boot memory testing and verification. Critical components might be hot swappable, and to guard against overheating, servers might have more powerful fans or use water cooling.

Server Hardware

Installation is the act of making a computer program program ready for execution. Because the process varies programs often come with a specialized program responsible for doing whatever is needed for their installation. Installation may be part of a larger software deployment process. Cross platform installer builders that produce installers for Windows, Mac OS X and Linux include InstallAnywhere, InstallBuilder and Install4J. Installers for Microsoft Windows include Windows Installer, InstallShield, and Wise Installation Studio; free installer-authoring tools include NSIS, IzPack, Clickteam, InnoSetup, InstallSimple and WiX. Mac OS X includes Installer, and also includes a separate software updating application.

This topic area includes legacy versions of Windows prior to Windows 2000: Windows 3/3.1, Windows 95 and Windows 98, plus any other Windows-related versions including Windows Mobile.

RAID stands for Redundant Array of Independent Disks.

RAID is data storage technology that allows multiple drives to be used together as a single virtual drive for reasons such as fault tolerance, reliability and performance. 

There are several different levels of RAID that determine how the data is stored and the level of redundancy achieved across the drives.

RAID

Computer data storage, often called storage or memory, is a technology consisting of computer components and recording media used to retain digital data. In addition to local storage devices like CD and DVD readers, hard drives and flash drives, solid state drives can hold enormous amounts of data in a very small device. Cloud services and other new forms of remote storage also add to the capacity of devices and their ability to access more data without building additional data storage into a device.
