I'm attempting to install RHEL7 on an old HP ProLiant DL585 G2 server. I boot into the installer through optical media and everything loads correctly as far as I can tell, however the installer does not detect a disk. I suspect this is because the server is using an HP SmartArray P400 hardware raid controller, and the installer doesn't have a driver.

I am pretty new with this new hardware (HP Smart Array P431). I have fixed it in my server ProLiant DL580 Gen8 running Centos 6.4. On bios level it says 'Smart Array P431 found on slot 3 and needs configuration'. I am not too sure what drivers. When i try the drivers from http://h20564.www2.hp.com/hpsc/swd/p..&swEnvOid=4103
It doesn't quite work out as there is alot of failed dependencies like below .
root@xserv storagecontroller]# rpm -ivh kmod-hpsa-3.4.10-120.rhel6u6.x86_64.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:
kernel(_dev_info) = 0x9b3277f3 is needed by kmod-hpsa-3.4.10-120.rhel6u6.x86_64
kernel(dev_err) = 0x8502d858 is needed by kmod-hpsa-3.4.10-120.rhel6u6.x86_64
kernel(dev_printk) = 0xabd7b07b is needed by kmod-hpsa-3.4.10-120.rhel6u6.x86_64
kernel(dev_warn) = 0x7b274cdb is needed by kmod-hpsa-3.4.10-120.rhel6u6.x86_64
I am just wondering if there is any other way to make the server recognize the Smart Array P431 ?
My goal is to attach HP D2600 SAS Direct Attached Storage to the server. Kindly advise. Thanks in advance
Hpsa is a SCSI driver for HP Smart Array RAID controllers. Smart Array E200i Smart Array E200i Smart Array E500 Smart Array P400 Smart Array P400i Smart.
Blue bloods season 7 torrent. Apparently support for these old drivers (CCISS) was discontinued in favor of newer drivers (hpsa) which do not support the P400. This page links to a sourceforge with various drivers as a possible solution, but I'm unsure how to proceed from there, or if it's possible at all. I'm fairly inexperienced even using Linux, let alone administration. Can someone point me in the right direction?
- The HP P400 Raid Controller is not recognised when you install Centos / RHEL 7 so the installation will fail. To work around this problem follow this simple procedure. Boot the DVD and at the boot menu press TAB to get the installation options and add 'hpsa.hpsa_allow_any=1' at the end.

Other Considerations
I'm trying to mimic an offsite environment that our code will be running on later. The install disk was given to us by the admins of the other environment, and has all the packages they are running. Communication is practically nonexistent, and we don't have much time to access the other environment once our window starts, so working out the kinks now is preferable.
That said, installing an older version of RHEL defeats our purposes. Currently this server is running CentOS 6.9, which I installed without any issues.

In large part, the answer comes from this forum post. I'll fill in some minor gaps for anyone with similar experience levels seeing this in the future.
As per the comments on the original question, before you start make sure your RAID is configured. You can access the UI by pressing F8 during system boot. It may be necessary to set the disk to RAID 0.
Boot from your installation media. With Install RHEL 7.x selected, press tab to edit the install options. Add hpsa.hpsa_simple_mode=1
and hpsa.hpsa_allow_any=1
to the options. (Simple Mode may or may not be necessary.) This allows the OS to access the hardware with its installed HPSA drivers as opposed to the CCISS drivers. Press enter to start installation.

Install as normal. When the system reboots after install it will fail, as it no longer has the boot options that let it use the RAID. Boot from the installation media again. Choose Troubleshooting. Select the Rescue a RHEL system and press tab, adding the same option(s) as before, and press enter.

Change to the installed system (from the rescue system you're currently running) with chroot /mnt/sysimage
. Use nano
or vim
to edit the GRUB2 config file, e.g. run nano /etc/default/grub
. One final time, add the option(s) from before to the GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX
entry. Save the file and exit. Remake GRUB2 with grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg
.
Exit the shell and reboot your system. You may get a message about SElinux relabeling the first time it boots, which may or may not give progress indication. Give it a generous amount of time to complete.
Congratulations, RHEL/CentOS 7 should be up and running!
