Requires RAID Creation Software for a HP ProLiant ML150 Gen 9
We have a customer with an inherited server, and need the software below to create the RAID. HP have removed it from their site. Has anyone got a copy of the software we can have or an alternative way to create the RAID please. The server is old but has not been used, its like new so will help them out so much.
HP Smart Storage Administrator (HPSSA) for the RAID Configuration
For the server below:
HP ProLiant ML150 Gen 9
I don't know about your exact model, but there is usually a function key you can hit during boot that will get you to the RAID controller firmware. There should be the ability to create an array in that. The SSA can be more convenient, but this should work, too.

Hi CompProbSolv,
That would be nice but It has to be the Off-Line software. In the BIOS its greyed out and refers you to the software in my post. They have removed it due to Security issue. That does not help and they dont offer a work around. I have spent 2 days trying to find a work around now. Dont want to let the customer down as they really need this server. Thanks for contributing

Hi Slightsw,
Looking at your suggestion now. The first link I have visited many time from different searches and thats the page the tells you it not available or a least one of them. I am downloading the v10 software mentioned at the bottom of the page now. Will update tomorrow. Thank you

CompProbSolv, Can I take you up on the software solution please. The ones I tried last night do not work.
Happy Dave (I hope)
Sent you a message.
If you go to:

You'll see:
There is a Gen9 SPP available here:
Gen9 Service Pack for ProLiant Version Gen9.1
https://techlibrary.hpe.com/us/en/enterprise/servers/products/service_pack/spp/#/index.aspx?version=Gen9.1
Now if that really has the RAID tools, I have no idea.
