Hi,
I’m trying to setup my first HS-X node on an HPE Apollo 4200 server. The server has 2 SSDs for OS, I created a hardware RAID 1 with them. 2 SSDs for metadata and 24 Disks for data. I downloaded HS-X media ISO 2.2 from 2021-08 (seems to be the latest one)
First, I’m not able to use “Multi Node” Option in first install screen, I guess that is because networking is not configured yet.
I then go through the config, select all the disks depending on their purpose and start the installation. After reaching 100% it shows that installation failed and “cannot set terminal process group (-1): Inappropriate ioctl for device”. I see that esp, boot and lvm partition were created on /dev/sdc (RAID 1), I also see that lvm logical disks were created on sdc and OS was installed.
If I reboot the installer ISO it tells me that an existing HS-X installation is detected. But when I try to boot from the OS RAID 1 device, it does not boot. So I guess that the grub bootmanger was not installed correctly and that this is the error shown before.
Are there any known issues with HPE servers, anything to be done in addition? Documentation for Reference Architecture install is not so much. I did not find a dedicated install documentation for HS-X on HPE.
We will do the final install together with Commvault in a few weeks, but I need to do some tests before, especially regarding network configuration.
