Re: HP Z620 floppy header

power for the floppy drive and SATA power, is taken from the power supply, not the motherboard

 

 

 

 

 

 most SATA based DOM's do not use a floppy connector for power, unless you have a  custom made OEM type DOM like this supermicro DOM

 

https://www.supermicro.com/products/nfo/SATADOM.cfm

 

and most custom OEM DOM's that do not use normal sata connections will usually use a 2 pin connector for power

most newer 16GB and larger dom data/power connectors look like this look like this:

connect your sata Disk On Module onto the power supply's sata Power or floppy connector and the SATA data cable to the DOM and the motherboards sata port

wrong company,  HP split into two diffrent companys some time ago this forum is for the consumer/workstation/printers

 

 

you need to go to the HPE web site (HP Enterprise) with server related questions

Re: HP Z620 floppy header

DGroves,

thanks for your reply. I do, however, wonder whether we are talking about the same motherboard. You are referring to an IDE port, but as far as I am aware of, the HP Z620 does not have any IDE ports - it is a SATA/SAS only system and actually lacks IDE connectors.

 

In terms of SATA DOMs, I do have a custome OEM SATA DOM sized at 1GB which is a left over from a NAS system which is no longer running with the original firmware but has rather been installed with FreeNAS using two USB sticks with 16GB each (mirrored). The SATA DOM I want to use uses a standard SATA connector as found on the motherboard, but requires power to operate and that is sourced through a floppy power connector, a so called "Berg connector" - see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berg_connector.

 

My SATA DOM looks similar to the right hand side one in your link from SuperMicro - although it is differently shaped and from a different company, but the connector is identical. It, however, only uses the 5V source from the floppy header (which also sources 12V) and therefore uses 2 pins of the 4 pin header only.

 

I was actually expecting to have the correponding header for that connector somewhere on the motherboard. So in essence, I am still searching for that header ...

 

The 1GB size is also plenty for what I want to use it for: The plan is to just use it to host the Clover bootloader in order to be able to install Windows 7 x64 on a HP Z Turbo Drive G2 which uses the NVME protocol not natively supported on the HP Z620. Clover would be able to circumvent that by starting a UEFI shell and then inserting an UEFI module to be able to access and boot from the NVMe SSD on the HP Z Turbo Drive G2

what is the header number the fan lead is connected to? and what is the model number of the fan you installed?

 

there are many, many diffrent fan specs such as voltage/rpm/3 or 4 pin power connections/tempture compensated,

and so on

 

you can get the fan locations/motherboard connectors from the service manual for your model workstation

my mistake i referenced the z600 not the z620, you are correct that the z620 only has sata ports

 

(i have edited the first post to correct this)

 

however the rest of  the information is correct, you will need to take the 5/12 volts from the power supply's SATA connectors

 

you can get SATA to floppy adapters from ebay/amazon/new egg

Re: BIOS settings configuration via HPDM

Hi Syed,

 

Sorry for my late response, for some reasons I didn't receive the email notification of your reply.

 

The .zip files I attached are actually the exported template from my DM SERVER which include both the .xml file and the related payload files. So simply import the .zip file instead of extract it.

 

To import a exported HPDM Template: open HPDM Console, navigate to "Template" -> "Import" -> "Exported Templates" and select the .zip file I have attached.

 

Then you should be able to see two templates(Get & Set) in the Win10 IoT tab. Edit the template with your BIOS files to create your own template.

 

 

In my sample template, to get the BIOS template, I first added a deploy files subtask to push the BCU file to c:\temp.

 

You can check that after importing the template.

Upgraded Z800 bios from 3.60 to latest 3.61 (rev a) .

 

Have started to notice instability issues, with complete Windows operating system hangs.

 

i note in the support bios readme, you cannot roll-back to previous version.

i have tried and received a failed update warning !

 

Any suggestions or similar issues from other users ?

Update (Fri 4th May 2018): The SAS8087 cables arrived and they have been installed into my Z600 with the LSI 84016E (LSI00137) Raid Card, the card was detected immediately, it was running newer firmware, as it was my first time using a raid card I have initially set it up by wiping my drives and adding each one as it's own drive group and then separate virtual drive, I will update this thread again in a few days time once I've flashed newer firmware to the card to hopefully enable 'IT' mode, it appears to supported by the hardware and newest firmware so if the official documents are correct then it will work like a HBA card, for a card that's chipset is almost 20 years old it's got reasonably good support

Yes,of course:  we're all using the HP 65W AC power supply (Model No. TPN-AA03 / HP part no. 925740--004 / spare part # 860209-850) originally delivered with the machines

Check if the DM agent is alive on the Thin OS device by exeucting:

ps ax | grep agent

 

you should be able to see something like

/usr/sbin/hpdmagent

 

Switch to /usr/sbin and execute ./hpdmagent if the process doesn't exist.

 

 

If this is a remote thin client you are not able to reach, please use the HPDMPortCheck.exe to check.

are you runing any applications that are using over 80% cpu  for a extended time?

 

have you checked the windows error logs to see if anything power related is being recorderd?

 

are you using the usb-c port for charging and and connecting another usb-c  device?

Re: Z800 bios 3.61

what errors are being shown in the windows log files?

 

HP released the z800 spectre bios fix well after the problems were found with the original bios updates. intel first released then pulled the orignal fix due to issues then rerreleased a updated fix once they found/fixed the stability problem

 

my z820 has the updated spectre fixed bios, and i have not noticed any issues with reboots/bsod's , same with my z800

yes, just informations and warnings, no errors

no, the AC adapter is connected and ethernet cable, nothing else

Your security chip (TPM) requires a firmware update

hi, after the update to Win10 64bit 1803 I received the following error message: 

Your security chip (TPM) requires a firmware update

 

Delete TPM is under it. But you should save data before. I would not like to shoot my Windows installation.

 

This link was displayed with the following message: In google enter "windows-10-update-security-processor-tpm-firmware # firmwareupdates".

 
I have already looked in the HP Softpaq. It's not about TPM update. I have installed this: sp81900.exe
and this: sp82133.exe
The second one only changes: status to: verification non supported(from supported). What now? Is the notebook now more vulnerable? thank you

Hello and thanx for the reply,
I have seen the docs that you added the links to, the first one is for z240. In the other ones i have found no info for the front fan header in terms of pwm control.
The fan is 4pin and as i said i tried even the chasis fan that is manufactured by hp and it still spins at full speed , even the fan that i want to add if i plug it in the chassis fan header works ok. So the problem must be in the front fan header. Maybe it does not have pwm control even if there are 4 pins
Later i will see the header number if that helps.

TPM v1.2 was used up till windows 10  which requires v2.0

 

Trusted Platform Management (TPM) is used for things like disk encryption (bitlocker) using hardware rather than software to encrypt the disk which is more secure

 

your HP Pro Book 455 G4 has a TPN chip on the motherboard which is currently at v1.2, windows 10 sees this and is notifying you to update the TPM firmware to v2.0 in order to use the tpm features (which is optional and not required)

 

your HP Pro Book 455 G4 does support updating to TPM 2.0

 

1. make sure the bios is the latest release!! if you try to update TPM with a older bios you will have problems!!

 

latest bios is  01.12 Rev.A  (sp87044.exe)

 

Use the HPBIOSUPDREC Utility to update the BIOS directly in a Microsoft Windows Operating System environment.

 

 

2. To avoid a complete loss of data, the drive must be fully decrypted before using the utility. Merely suspending BitLocker is not good enough.

 

3. run the tpm firmware updater from sp81900 (TPMConfig64.exe for 64-bit OS ) it will auto detect the current version and give you the option to update to the latest  1.2 or update from 1.2 to 2.0 you must select update 2.0, else it simply stays at the latest 1.2 release

Re: Z600 not posting PCIe Card that previously worked

you can not replace the Raid firmware on this card with "IT" firmware,  furthermore the card  does not support JBOD as a configurable option this card (LSI 84016E ) is RAID ONLY  and  only works in Raid modes it will never become a HBA card

 i have used this model  and i am aware of it's  specs/abilitys the best you might do is to make each drive attached a raid 0 array  which will give you a  hacked JBOD that is using the LSI boot code on each drive instead of letting the motherboard chipset control the drive (which is what a true jbod controller allows)

 

you decided on the  LSI 84016E for some reasion,  i hope the card works out for you and if not then consider the cards i recomended

HP 290 G1 will not recognise PCIe serial/parallel cards

$
0
0

I've installed a StarTech PEX2S5531P 2 Serial/1 parallel PCIe card in this PC but it is not recognised at all - i.e. nothing shows up in Device Manager.

The card works fine in another (non-HP PC) - I've actually tried 2 cards of the same type.

The PCIe slot in the PC works fine (tried a network card in it).

 

Why is it not recognised by the HP PC?

 

I would update to the latest BIOS, but the page (https://support.hp.com/gb-en/drivers/selfservice/hp-290-g1-microtower-pc/16665152/model/16665153?sku=1QN02EA) states a different product (280 G3, not 290 G1). So is it safe to use this BIOS?
