1. Install a GE-4P-360T-B2-1 network adapter. Most systems integrate network adapter drivers of
this type.
2. Burn the driver of the mLOM adapter into the image of the system, and then use this image for
PXE installation.
3. If the issue persists, contact H3C Support.
Failure to install a VMware OS when only mLOM
adapters are installed
Symptom
A VMware OS failed to be installed when only mLOM adapters are installed.
Solution
The server detects whether a network adapter exists before installing a VMware OS. If no network
adapter is detected, the OS will not be installed. The server uses a new-generation chip for mLOM
adapters, and the mLOM adapter driver is not integrated into VMware, so the server cannot identify
the mLOM adapter.
To resolve the issue:
1. Apply either of the following methods:
Use the OS image integrated with the mLOM adapter driver to install the OS.
Install a PCIe card that the VMware-provided drive can identify, for example, network
adapter-GE-4P-360T-B2-1, CNA-10GE-2P-560F-B2-1, or network
adapter-10GE-2P-520F-B2-1.
2. If the issue persists, contact H3C Support.
HBA-H460-M1 storage controller drive can be
installed successfully only after two installation
operations
Symptom
The HBA-H460-M1 storage controller drive can be installed successfully only after two installation
operations.
Solution
This issue is caused by smartpqi driver and aacraid driver (provided with the card) conflict. Updating
smartpqi does not update aacraid.
To resolve the issue for a Red Hat OS:
a. Update firmware to version 0.0.B826 or higher.
b. Install smartpqi (v1.02), and then reboot the server.
c. Install aacraid (v52011) to replace aacraid provided with the storage controller.
d. Add rdblacklist=aacraid to /etc/grub2-efi.cfg, and then reboot the server.
e. Execute the lspci -vvs b3:00.0 command to verify that the drive in use is smartpqi.
