September 24, 2025Sep 24 Hi all,we had a power outage today and since then, the Microserver just can't get to boot from the USB device.I tried another front USB port of the HPE Microserver, changed the USB device - nothing really helped. This is the error message I get in the ILO console - can anyone help me? :)Thanks a lot and warm regardsSebastian
September 24, 2025Sep 24 Community Expert Try booting with a different flash drive using a stock install ( no key needed) to confirm if it's a flash drive/config issue or a server problem.
September 24, 2025Sep 24 Author That is super strange. I created it as totally new USB device - it worked. Then it has an issue with the license file, I copy the file on the USB, reboot - same issue.
September 25, 2025Sep 25 Community Expert That suggests there's a config problem, you can try redoing the flash drive, backup the current one first and then recreate it using the USB tool and just restore the bare minimum, like the key, super.dat and the pools folder for the assignments, also copy the docker user templates folder (\config\plugins\dockerMan\templates-user), if all works you can then reconfigure the server or try restoring a few config files at a time from the backup to see if you can find the culprit.
September 25, 2025Sep 25 Author Solution Thanks a lot for your help - you won't believe what the problem was... :DMy HPE Microserver has an internal USB slot with a faulty USB drive. I always booted with a second one in the external usb slot. Even though I selected now the external slot, it kind of had hiccups with the faulty internal.As I removed the internal usb device all went smooth. How dumb - I could have saved me and you the time - nevertheless thanks for your help man :)
