    <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;Hello,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;have you tried upgrading your host's firmware to the newest versions with&lt;A href="http://h18004.www1.hp.com/products/servers/service_packs/en/index.html"&gt; HP SPP 2015.04.0&lt;/A&gt; ISO and also did you perform the upgrade with help of the official ISO from the vendor? Sometimes when you have a wrong NIC firnware/driver combo, the networking stack refuses to work.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Good luck!&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;Have a couple 6.0 hosts on DL380 Gen8 blades. Just upgraded them from working 5.5-5.5.2 installs. Both Gen8 blades see the NIC's, MAC addresses, and the link state. But regardless of config, cannot get any connectivity. DHCP wont receive and address even though DHCP is need for our PXE installs. Even tried ISO installs through iLO. Tried both HP version and regular version of ESXi 6.0 install. Also did the same upgrade path on 2 DL380 Gen6 blades, and neither had issues. &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Any suggestions?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;This was going to be my next step (SPP) in the morning. Been dealing with a RHEL and FC HBA issue all night :smileysilly:&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I have tried the official HP ISO to no avail. &lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;This was able to bring life back into the nics. Although, I had to reboot after first boot as it randomly lost connection, but has been fine since reboot.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>
