Installation on DL360 Gen10 (PVE 8.2)

[Molch]

Hello, I am currently trying to install Proxmox 8.2 via iLO5 (UEFI mode) and I am receiving the following error message - and also tried with "nomodeset".
Also tried Legacy Bios without success and PVE 7.4.

Hi,

on a hunch, I'd first try upgrading (all) the firmware of the server to the latest, as it might be just a problem with faulty firmware - which is not that uncommon unfortunately.

The error message is quite cut up, so it's hard to say from which subsystem/driver this error comes. But seems to come from the bfa driver, which is a SCSI driver for Brocade PCIe FC/FCOE host adapters.

Do you have such a Fibrechannel adapter card attached to the server?

Hi,

if i disable the pci device the installation is working well.
After enabling and rebooting again - Reboot process stuck.

After enabling and rebooting again - Reboot process stuck.

Just to clarify - so you enabled the device, rebooted and then it got stuck on another reboot? Or did you (software) hot-plug it?

Anyways, I'd again suggest try updating the firmware of that device at least. Also, contacting the vendor of that card (and/or the vendor of your server) could be worth a shot, they might be able to help. Our Proxmox VE kernel is based on the latest Ubuntu LTS kernel, maybe they have some sort of hardware compatibility list.

I have the same system running, and there’s no problem on my end.

Im using now the same kernel and still no way to mount LUNs. While booting (bios) the SAN is telling me all ports are active, after booting up in proxmox ports are going down.
