Install the HPE System Management Homepage on Windows Server 2016 (HPE DL 380 G10)

hp-prolianthpewindows-server-2016

I have an new HPE ProLiant DL380 G10 server with Windows Server 2016 on it.

As i was used to i:

  • downloaded the HPE SPP (Service Pack for ProLiant) in Version 2018.03
  • and first updated the Firmware,
  • than build a RAID,
  • installed the OS (win16).

After that i was used to copy the SPP ISO to the Windows Server and start the SUM (Smart Update Manager) to install additional HPE Software and drivers.

Everything worked fine until i noticed that i can not find the HPE System management Homepage in HP SUM.

I tried to find it on the HPE Homepage but could't find anything that goes with DL380 in Generation 10 and Windows 2016.

  • Has it been discontinued?

  • Or is it not available for my configuration (Gen10 and Win16)?

  • Has someone had an similar problem or an hint for me what has
    changed?

As i said i installed the SMH always over the SPP and now it seems not to work anymore this way…

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:

What i found out:
System Management Homepage in newest version (7.6.3.) is included in SPP 2018.03. It is the package "cp034022.exe". If i try to install it manually i get the failure:

Unsupported G10(ProLiant DL380 Gen10) server model

enter image description here

So any idea what to do now? So there is really no version of HPE SMH for G10 Servers?!
