    New pump recommendations - needed quick!

    I'm also in the market for a new pump, the D5 seems like a solid choice. Seems like the DDC pumps runs quite hot and are hard to cool? The MCP35x is very nice but is the heat going to be a problem / lower the lifespan? Or is the heat not an issue / exaggerated?

    HP ProLiant MicroServer owners' thread

    You can't use MicroSD cards or USB-keys as datastores in ESXi (it's possible to hack your way into this) but it's for a good reason since they aren't suitable.

    HP ProLiant MicroServer owners' thread

    Hi! I installed this image: VMware-ESXi-5.1.0-799733-HP-5.34.23.iso through the ilo remote console. I have tried installing to a USB-stick before I did my final installation to a 8GB Kingston microsd. Have you checked your boot order in the BIOS? I did have some problems with the ESXi...

    HP ProLiant MicroServer owners' thread

    I've had my Gen8 for a few days now. It's a step up from my old N36L in many aspects. It's more like it's bigger proliant brothers in terms of build quality, management and smart layout and solutions. But it lacks som things that I needed VT-d, AES-NI, HDD slots and some grunt. So I did some...

    HP ProLiant MicroServer owners' thread

    We need some more buzz about the Gen8 in this thread :) I found this site: http://b3n.org/installed-xeon-e3-1230v2-in-gen8-hp-microserver/ And apparently upgrading the CPU is no problem at all. Too bad that the ODD bay doesn't seem to room a 5th HDD.

    The Gen7 doesn't seem to be equipped with same type of sensors as it's bigger brothers.Perhaps we'll get this on the Gen8?

    HP ProLiant MicroServer owners' thread

    I have loaded the HP Agents on my ESXi installation which gives me information about the storage adapter and the drives which is most useful information for me. If you use a HP branded media (for the ESXi installation) or download the agents and load them up using SSH you should be able to...

    Great work keeping us updated, I can't wait to get my hands on one :)

    HP ProLiant MicroServer owners' thread

    I can't wait to see the new model released. Since it's socket 1155 it would be awesome if the CPU could be replaced with a Xeon 1230v2 or something else with some more grunt...

    HP Smart Array p410 + SuperMicro X9SCM-F - boot in a loop

    No news about the issue with this combination? I have a P410 controller in my Microserver and I'm tempted to build a more powerful ESXi host and keep my datastores (and the controller)...

    vSphere 5.1 iSCSI MPIO what can I expect?

    Let's say that you keep all the targets and ports on the same IP-subnet (and VLAN). Wouldn't ESXi expect that all targets should be available on all NIC's and balance the traffic with RR accordingly? But all targets aren't available on all NIC's and timeouts occur?

    vSphere 5.1 iSCSI MPIO what can I expect?

    Since I'm gonna keep the iSCSI VLAN isolated on each switch... Should I use a unique subnet for each target port on the Promise box? Two ports on each promise will not be accessible from Switch 1 and vice versa on Switch 2. I'm guessing that ESXi will try to transfer iSCSI traffic to...

    vSphere 5.1 iSCSI MPIO what can I expect?

    In this case half of the ESXi NIC ports are connected to switch 1 and the rest to switch 2. So if one switch dies all VLANs will have a redundant uplink. I have been a bit lazy and haven't paid much attention to keep the associated port of the ESXi host on the same switch as the associated port...

    vSphere 5.1 iSCSI MPIO what can I expect?

    Only between the switches to get some more bandwith, I'm not using LACP for the ESXi ports.
