Can’t find and install iLO 2 driver on HP ProLiant DL380 G5 running Windows Server 2012

I had problem finding an iLO 2 driver that would work with Windows Server 2012. The server was a HP ProLiant DL380 G5. I had earlier managed to get an iLO 2 driver to work with Windows Server 2012 on a HP ProLiant ML350 G5.

The hardware ID was: VEN_103C&DEV_3302.
It was shown in the device manager as ipmi interface.

We solved this by this by installing cp013803.exe (HP ProLiant iLO 2 Management Controller Driver for Windows Server 2008 x64 Editions)

Hey, quick question — how much of a pain was it to install 2012 on this server? I’m thinking about picking up a few discounted pieces to use for a storage pool and wanted 2012 on them.

No pain at all. Needed to download some drivers from hp.com. I googled the hardware id’s to know what type of driver I needed to download. I used drivers for Windows 2008 r2.

I had a similar problem getting a new DL380p Gen8 Server, I couldnt find an ILO driver which worked on Server 2012. I took your advice and used a driver from 2008R2 which did the trick, so thank you.

I loaded Server 2012 on a ML370G6 and I’ve been unable to get the ILO driver loaded onto it. I’ve already tried the cp013803.exe update but it wouldn’t install.

I extracted the executable and then loaded the driver via the Device Manager and it installed fine.

HP released a Windows Server 2012 Supplement for Service Pack for ProLiant that includes drivers and software for all ProLiant servers.
