I've spent too many hours attempting to set this install up and need some help. This is my first HP proliant server (Proliant DL20 Gen10) and therefore first time using any integrated utilities to setup the system, OS and storage...Here are the two main issues I'm running into and then I'll get into how I have everything setup.
Error via Assisted Install method (shown above)
No drives detected via load ISO from virtual drive (shown above)
Install ISO: VMware-ESXi-6.7.0-Update2-13006603-HPE-Gen9plus-670.U2.10.4.1.8-Apr2019
SPP Status: Can't install, can't load ISO, planning on doing so after ESXI install (spp-2019.03.0-SPP2019030.2019_0206.85)
Physical Drives: KINGSTON SA400S3 120GB (Qty: 2), Samsung SSD 860 1TB (Qty: 2)
Each setup in a RAID 1 using the RAID configuration tool in Intelligent Provisioning (first attempts provisioned through UEFI BIOS and same result, tore down and reprovisioned in IProv)
Raid configuration (shown above)
Firmware appears to be up to date as well...(shown above)
As I mentioned, I've attempted to install via Assisted Install by provisioning through Intelligent Provisioning portal, and also by loading the ISO from virtual drive and booting from it. Both methods yield different errors/issues and I'm really hoping that it's not because I am using non HP drives because their products are overpriced and do not match my eventual design plan. Any help in pointing me in the right direction would be appreciated. Thanks so much.
