What does the autorun at the top does?
It has to check

You downloaded a bootable.media for offline management.

I think you need to.install HP insight management.

@arnold,

 I downloaded a couple of them from the top, but said that it can't be installed.

There are so many files to choose from. What do I need to download for Windows server 2019 standard?

There's nothing to install.  HPE web storage manager is a Web App link document.  You just need to point your browser to the web link on your local system, or open the file in a browser to "run" it.

@serialband,

"You just need to point your browser to the web link on your local system, or open the file in a browser to "run" it. " --> can you give me an example? What do I enter when I open the browser in HP server?

can you confirm in services whether you have HP insight deployed?


If this is a physical system, been a while, though you have to have a desktop shortcut to the app.

YOu are looking for the computer management tool.
Not sure whether you dealt with other platforms, dell IBm, etc.
dell openmanage, IBM director...

these are components that got installed on the Physical system and provided a web based access to the underlying hardware.

The other options you could use the ILO to access the storage.

Much depends what are you after.

@arnold,

Now I have Smart Storage Administrator on the server. 

Thank you!

ML110 is an entry level server, S100 array is a software based array.

What is the system slated for?
using Sata drives, AD/DC/DHCP/PrintServer/file share?

What is the system slated for? ---> 5 user/workstation network. On Hyper-V server, a few VMs-  one app server for file share, one VPN server for Remote Gateway Server, one DC/DHCP/DNS

Not sure A raid5 using software raid as the underpinning storage for Multiple VMs is a ...
The impact of a single Drive failure will be felt.
Same vintage drives, the rebuild post failure will pose a risk of a secondary drive failure before the rebuild completes.

effectively two storage spindles to handle the I/O load....
the way it sounds, your host is running stuff and resources consumption on it will defer/delay VM resource allocations.

I am doing RAID1 with a hot spare. The servers is slow, when compared to a SSD equipped server, but it runs ok. 

Single I/O for one SPindle and VMs on a software raid controller.

if it works for you.

NOt sure whether you looked at using Ubuntu/oracle linux Samba4+LDAP DC.

depending on what the 5 users are accessing, i.e. quickbooks requires a windows platform.
