After updating any HPE Gen10 or HPE Gen10 Plus platform installed with HPE Smart Array SR Gen10/Gen10 Plus controllers to firmware version 4.11/3.01.01.074 or later, some servers may take a longer time to boot or may not boot.This is expected behavior after updating the HPE Smart Array SR Gen10/Gen10 Plus controllers to firmware version 4.11/3.01.01.074 (or later), as the Smart Array controller is moved to bottom of the list after the firmware is updated.For example:Server Boot OrderInternal SD Card 1 : Generic USB3.0-CRWSlot 2 Port 1 : HPE Ethernet 1Gb 4-port 331T Adapter - NIC (PXE IPv4)Slot 2 Port 1 : HPE Ethernet 1Gb 4-port 331T Adapter - NIC (HTTP(S) IPv6)Slot 2 Port 1 : HPE Ethernet 1Gb 4-port 331T Adapter - NIC (HTTP(S) IPv4)Slot 2 Port 1 : HPE Ethernet 1Gb 4-port 331T Adapter - NIC (PXE IPv6)Embedded LOM 1 Port 1 : HPE Ethernet 1Gb 4-port 331i Adapter - NIC (HTTP(S) IPv4)Embedded LOM 1 Port 1 : HPE Ethernet 1Gb 4-port 331i Adapter - NIC (PXE IPv4)Embedded LOM 1 Port 1 : HPE Ethernet 1Gb 4-port 331i Adapter - NIC (HTTP(S) IPv6)Embedded LOM 1 Port 1 : HPE Ethernet 1Gb 4-port 331i Adapter - NIC (PXE IPv6)Embedded RAID 1 :HPE Smart Array P408i-a SR Gen10 - 279.365 GiB, RAID1 Logical Drive 1(Target0, Lun:0)NOTE: This issue is rare and will not occur on the majority of servers, as the OS creates the boot entry order after finishing OS deployment related to the .EFI application. For example:\EFI\redhat\shimx64.efi\EFI\ubuntu\shimx64.efi\EFI\VMware\safeboot64.efi\EFI\Microsoft\Boot\bootmgfw.efiIf the HPE Smart Array Controller was selected as the first boot device, this configuration would be affected.

To resolve this issue:Move the HPE Smart Array controller to the first place in the boot order listORAdd the OS absolute boot path (.EFI) and make that first in the Server Boot Order. This can be achieved viaSystem Utilities (F9) > iLO GUI > Administration - Boot Order, HPE iLOREST/ iLO RESTful API, or from the operating system UEFI Boot Manager.Reference GuidesUEFI System Utilities User Guide for HPE ProLiant Gen10, ProLiant Gen10 Plus Servers, and HPE SynergyUEFI Deployment Guide for HPE ProLiant Gen10Servers and HPE SynergyHPE iLO 5 User GuideRESTful Interface TooliLO RESTful APIRECEIVE PROACTIVE UPDATES: Receive support alerts (such as Customer Advisories), as well as updates on drivers, software, firmware, and customer replaceable components, proactively in your e-mail through HPE Support Alerts.
