Hi Abigail Jiménez Thank You very much! Try to play with servers and have some fun :-) Thank you for watching! :-)

[@mamdouh-Tawadros]

Thank you Morten for this video. I beg to differ about hp, the hardware is very dependable with sturdy quality components. Their pitfall is that they want you to buy everything hp. With so many riser PCIe cards the fans tend to blow slightly louder. For OS SSD, I found all brands work even market ones, but the high volume hard drives have to be hp otherwise the server cries. If you add any non-hp PCIe cards it also cries. You get the idea.

[@MyPlayHouse]

Hi Mamdouh Tawadros Thank You very much! way to mush errors on HPE,, bought 10 blade centers c7000 1½ years ago,,, some 210% error rate on them,, all needed an Intel CPU microcode patch,, all needed replacement of bootable dual SD card USB boot thing,, and 10% other error,, and we have had 5 blades that needed new system board. I have worked 10years with IBM/Lenovo,, changed the first Lenovo system board 2 month ago. HPE is great for keeping your job,, they keep us busy. Thank you for watching! :-)

[@computerboy9766]

Funnily enough, that fan issue can be fixed on G6-7 servers by *downgrading* the BIOS. I did it on my 380 G7 and it calmed down to ~35dB. The fans raised up even though I used a HP ConnectX-2. The fan speed issue is even worse on a DL180 G6. Adding a P410 in any of the full height slots shoots the fans up to 8000 RPM. Almost unbearable in a homelab environment.

[@mamdouh-Tawadros]

The CPU patch is not HPE issue but an Intel issue. You will find all recent xeon cpu having the same problem across the board, whether Lenovo, or hp or dell.

[@Cooper3312000]

Same here our data center has switched to all new incoming servers HP. No issues so far keeps us happy. I personally use a Dell T430 at home it’s been good for a home server.

[@opiniononion919]

always amazing to see how expensive this stuff is. And here I just picked up a G7 for 170€ =)

[@MyPlayHouse]

Yes new hardware is not to be invested in, in hope of it ganinge value :-/

Hi Ranjith Kumar S Thank You very much! glad you liked the video :-) Thank you for watching! :-)

[@rswow]

15:20 Can that riser really take NVMe SSDs? Tested it? If it can, then what's the model number of the riser, and where available? The default riser ( 877946-001, 809461-001), I've read only takes M.2 SATA drives. No manual seems available for that riser, which strikes me as quite odd; i.e. if you make it, why not document it?

[@MyPlayHouse]

That may very well be the case,, No I have never tasted this.

[@kreandi]

18:18 Are you sure there is a built-in raid controller aside of the smart array? That would be 2 raid controllers in one machine?

[@MyPlayHouse]

There is often HBA on the system board,, no raid,, it will just present the drives to the OS.

[@sin3r6y98]

I've had nothing but good results with HP, we have a few hundred machines deployed in various places. They can be really picky to set up at first, but once they're running they run for near forever in my experience. Dell's are also just as good IMO. Haven't been able to play with the newer Lenovo stuff yet though.

[@nanite10]

I've used HP for years as well and have never had problems running them at 100% 24x7. The new Gen10s have been great and extremely highly performant in production. The DL560 can be loaded up with 4x Xeon Platinum 8180s without skipping a beat running at constant 100% turbo boosted.

[@MyPlayHouse]

I have had some poor experiences with HPE services,, where 10 days to fix a broken down dl380,, has been more the role then the exception :-/ and we have had batches of 30 servers with 100% fail rades because of bad firmware, netcards, SSD's, SD-card readers(the boot thing) on top of normal amount of what you could expected fails. And 3 month wait on new firmware to be able to use our new servers.

I know this video is almost 5 years old now, so i guess you found it in this time, but your RAID battery is visible at the front of the server at 12:30 in your video, I am sure someone else has already answered this below, but i didnt want to read through all 200+ comments to check :) nice video, I do like the amount of HBA controllers you have in this box!

[@MyPlayHouse]

Yes,, and over time I have learned that these HPE batteries needs changing a bit to often.. :-/

[@tim1638]

Thanks for this video Morten. I would like to see the SAN configuration of this data center and the storage boxes you were talking from. And why the heck does this "backup" server need 12 SFP's? What is the specific use case for this system? If it's only doing backups, 2 x 10GB's would be enough.

[@MyPlayHouse]

Hi Patrick Lünow Thank You very much! Noteded,,, glad you liked the video :-) Thank you for watching! :-)

[@HUEFESFS]

I would imagine it will be connected to multiple SAN storages. Probably clustering configuration with live migration possibly. With VMware DRS it would be able to assign resources and redistribute VMmachines around the cluster. But still it is quiet massive SAN configuration in my opinion.

[@AChilds52]

didn't get the HPE ProLiant DL385 Gen10? would love to see your review on one when you do get ahold of one and how it performs

[@MyPlayHouse]

Yarh,, it is about the same as a car,, but the used market is not as good :-/

[@Clamdine]

15:18 The primary riser does not have M.2 NVMe slots. Those are M.2 SATA slots. From the Spec sheet: 2 M.2 SATA SSD standard on primary riser My life would be so much easier if the where M.2 NVMe slots.

[@MyPlayHouse]

That would be cool,, I think I have seen both now,, might be on Gen 11

[@Clamdine]

I just bought 2x DL360 G10. You have to use 6 channel memory, and I don't think HP delivers with smaller than 16GB ram sticks now. I was going to get 128GB ram, but ended up with 192 because of that.

Hmm, so one or two of the FC cards is going to have to come out to make room for a SAS HBA or RAID card for the external storage? Also will those SSDs end up internal or in the external box? I used to work at a place that was all HP, hated IBM...had a friend working in the opposite environment, all IBM, hated HP. Now I work with Supermicro systems, and while the cost advantage is nice, I do like the HP/Dell/Lenovo/IBM life if you can afford them and the parts with their part numbers.

Hi My PlayHouse, This is excellent content especially. I'm new to VMware. Is VMware preferred or has a better performance in regard to selecting a processor for it? Do I go with the high voltage or low voltage? Also, VMware has better compatibility with the low-level algorithm and the way the processor works. Sorry I have a lot of questions I was planning to allocate a lot of time studying VMware so why am I digging it from the bottom. To make sure I do not miss any details with it. If yes what processor specification is the best with VMware performance?

[@MyPlayHouse]

VMware is great for having multilabel, virtual servers on one physical server,, then you spec. out the server for your needs and available funds.

[@larsappel7813]

That's hard to get a used server which wasn't used 24/7 because that's what 99% of all servers do. Servers are made for 24/7... Also your configuration is very rare, because an E5 2640v4 is made for multi CPU Servers so most of the servers with this CPU i think are with 2x E5 2640v4 so it could be difficult to find this configuration... also wouldnt reccomend 6x300GB SAS 15k, what are you need this for?

[@HUEFESFS]

First which coming to my mind is the ILO. With the standard license you would have an option to do basic server configuration and Remote Console would be time limited. With the Advanced license you have much more flexibility. I would put 5 disk in RAID 5 and if you think about VMware, set the ESXi OS on the USB or SD card.

[@maxb90]

@@HUEFESFS thanks a lot, for ILO system is necessary a Ethernet connection?

[@HUEFESFS]

@@maxb90 actually you would have multiple options but still main connection is over Ethernet. You could use dedicated Ethernet port for the ILO at the back of the server, you have USB ILO port at the front but you would need the converter from USB to Ethernet to connect to the ILO and you could configure your standard Network Ethernet port to share the data traffic and iLO traffic through the same port but I would not recommend that.

The CPU's really need 4 Channels Each. 16 Sticks at the minimum.

[@ChristianSamsel]

No. He explained it correctly, each CPU has 6 channels. With two CPUs installed it would be best to use either 12 or 24 modules.

[@electronicbattlefield2442]

Yes it is 6 Channels on the Scalables.

[@MyPlayHouse]

Yes there is 6 memory channels,, so if there is 4 CPU´s in this server,, it is 24 or 48 blocks of memory,, to get max. performances.

[@ravipeter3300]

Honestly hpe sells more than Lenovo, I guess that says a lot about how good their servers are. Maybe hardware problem is your personal opinion

No that tells you that they have very good sells department. I have worked with 100´s of IBM servers and now 100´s of HPE servers,, and it it the HPE servers that are keeping us busy,, there have way more,, at least 3x more unplanned downtime. And here it is totally normal that HPE 3th party techniques comes to visit you three times to get a standdart server like the DL380 G10 fixed. First visit he will have a network card, raid controller, ram block, with him. Witch will not fix the issue. (and this is after I have firmware updated this server, because HPE always wants this,, even though the server is right next to 139 100% identical Servers) Next visit he will have a system board, and a CPU with him. He will then quite surprised to discover that the system board that HPE has send is flawed, and they never experience that..... But on the 3th visit he will come with a working system board,, and after normally 10 days, I will have the Server back up. :-/

i am also building my backup server; ( Hp DL360 G7 8 bay version (with 8x 2TB 2.5 inch SAS drives)) . edit: the server i already have , the drives i can get for 'cheap' from my parts supplier ;)

[@djangoryffel5135]

dedb25 ouch, 2TB 2,5" SAS, that's going to be exspensive. For this money you could also buy an newer server and an 3,5" shelf.

[@dedb25]

10 (2 a spares) 2TB drives cost me 250 eur incl shipping ;)

[@MyPlayHouse]

Hi dedb25 Thank You very much! good price,, I think! Thank you for watching! :-)

[@djangoryffel5135]

dedb25 that's a damn good price, do you have a link? I mean, here in Switzerland, we have a many shops, trying to sell the 73GB 2,5" plates for 20 CHF, so yeah, 25 Dollar for 2TB is really hot.

[@dedb25]
