Hp Proliant Dl320 G5 Bios Update

Posted By admin On 26.12.19
Hello, I recently just purchased an HP Proliant dl360 g5 rack server from my school today for $100. I was happy with the good deal so I brought it home and hooked it up. It starts up, fans are at 100%. 5 minutes go by, 20 minutes go by 1 hour goes by and it hasn't even hit post yet. So I create a thread on here and ask why it's not working. I get an answer saying update your firmware here, I went to the site only to find out I wasted my $100 on this server. The wonderful company of HP charges people to get Bios updates if you're not under a warranty. So I go and check how much this warranty would cost thinking it would be like $20 but no it was $1000 for a 1year warranty. So now my options are 1. Pay to make this thing work or 2. Sell it. I'm a Jr in high school taking a Computer Technician Analyst class trying to get my A+ certification. All I want to do is have a server and learn Linux on it. I'm not using this for anything business related. So is there a way to get the bios for free or should I sell this thing?

So I just recently got my hands on a cheap HP DL360 G6, and have already started investigating some cheap hardware upgrades for the thing. It's the perfect balance of old enough that additional hardware is relatively cheap to come by, but recent enough to not be terrible in terms of performance, virtualisation support and not dimming the lights in the neighbourhood when powering the thing on. It's currently on its way, and hopefully should arrive by this Friday or Monday.

I have grand plans for the thing, involving a CPU upgrade, memory upgrades and possibly installing an additional SAS backplane for more storage, but before doing anything crazy, I figured the best thing to do would be to get all the necessary firmware up to date, including the server's BIOS.

..and that's the part where I learnt that in 2014, HP decided to specifically put server firmware behind a paywall, requiring a support contract with HP to gain access to BIOS downloads.

So this is where I need your help. I'd like to download the latest server BIOS for the ProLiant DL360 G6. As far as I can tell, only this and the HP Service Pack is behind the paywall, and all other drivers and stuff are publicly accessible. I either need a kind soul to download the BIOS for me, or offer some advice on how to get around HP's paywall without forking out money for a support contract for a retired server I bought for peanuts off of eBay.

Can anyone out there with access to HP support give me a hand?

  • HP Proliant Gen8 boot failure after bios upgrade and processor upgrade. So we did the BIOS Firmware update to most. Tagged hp hp-proliant bios firmware.
  • The bios would boot using the configured raid array, then the OS would just seen individual drives. To bypass it, I just set up 2 raid0 arrays (one per drive). There is still a software layer involved, but it makes the boot process and the OS agree on drive layout.
  • We recently purchased some HP ProLiant DL380 G5 servers. Is no longer allowing downloads and updates for systems. Boot with it to do BIOS/Firmware updates.
