I finally got around to swapping the p420I for a real LSI card, should have listened to Rangga from the start Shipping was actually $94 in the end because rural surcharge, so $131 total, still not mad about it The cracked faceplate is now held on with server rail nuts I found in a drawer, very professional Did you ever solve the Mumbai shipping thing
Won a DL380 G9 for $37, now what?
The universal sliding ones from Hetzner fit my g8 but I never checked g9 compatibility
119 days, hope you got that fan curve sorted
Same room gang here too, my DL360p sounds like it's preparing for takeoff when I spin up a VM. ILO manual mode is the only way, set it to 25% and accept the slightly toasty DIMMs
Did you ever solve the P420I web bios thing? I flashed mine to HBA and lost the RAID config utility entirely, had to boot an Ubuntu live USB just to check disk serials. Not the end of the world but annoying at 2am
For the rails, check OVHcloud's refurb section every few weeks, they sometimes dump G9 rails for like $15 when a datacenter clears out. Way cheaper than eBay "vintage server parts" scalpers
Still running that ZFS mirror or did you pivot to something else
