The drivers for the NC553M mezzanine card have been removed from Linux. I have built a driver disk script:
https://github.com/feralcoder/kolla-ansible/blob/main/admin-scripts/utility/build-emulex-driver-disk.sh
Once you have the disk created, boot an install and then (following these instructions...):
https://docs.centos.org/en-US/centos/install-guide/DU-Updating_drivers_during_installation_x86/#sect-driver-updates-limitations-x86
- At kernel boot screen, hit tab to modify boot line
- Add "inst.dd" to initiate interractive find/use process
- Hit enter, follow instructions, find driver, use it
Use Service Pack for ProLiant (SPP) Version 2017.04.0 to update all firmware at once.
This software requires an active license... Somebody somewhere has an active license right now...

Host the iso somewhere for mounting via ILO. Here, done:
http://192.168.1.82:8080/share/proliant_dl380p_Gen8/P03093_001_spp-Gen8.1-SPPGen81.4.iso
Firmware can be updated interactively or automatically:
- mount the CD-ROM iso image from ILO virtual media (or burn to disk or USB and boot that way...)
- catch the boot prompt (30s timeout) and select Interactive Firmware Update
- or let it go to "Automatic" automatically
When to reinstall this?
After nvram clear, at least.

Download the iso. Host it somewhere, eg here:
http://192.168.1.82:8080/share/proliant_dl380p_Gen8/Intelligent_Provisioning/HPIP171.2019_0220.23.iso
Mount it over virtual media, boot it.
IS IT REAL? HTML5 Console in ILO 2.70?
