According to http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/voiceapp/ps378/ 
prod_brochure09186a0080107d79.html the only DL380-G3 servers we  
support have 2.4GHz and 3.06GHz processors.   The only 2.8GHz (HP)  
servers we support are the DL320 series.

Throw a 2.4GHz Xeon in there and I suspect you'll be ok.

Cisco pre-launch briefing back in February of 2006...

The box I am using has a 2.8Ghz Xeon...

The other box had two 2.4Ghz and gives me no warning about CPU...

Sorry I did notice the clock speed in the original e-mail, 2.4GHz.  
You will need a minimum of 2.8GHz for 5.x. Where did you see that  
2.0GHz was acceptable for 5.x upgrade?:

OK, that didn't work at all.

I yanked the second CPU and it now says that the clock speed  
(2800Mhz) is NOT SUPPORTED...

I thought the CPU requirement for CCM5 was 2GHz?

It says the 2GB is good, the HW Type (Vendor/Product) is good, the  
number of CPUs (1) is ok...

And then it halts.

The key is the harddisks configuration. Check the requirements for a  
HP DL380G (if it has a dual processor or not). I had a similar issue  
with Unity Connection...

Should plug the second CPU back after install - if you do that you  
need again 6 harddisks....

Don't get me wrong, I am pretty sure it will work...

But...

Will it die when I plug the second CPU back in after install? I mean,  
why not have two CPUs....?

Scott,

You hit the nail on the head. As long at the server meets all other  
requirements they can pull the extra CPU & the install should complete.

It is entirely possible.

They originally bought this thing two years ago and threw the other  
processor in when they upgraded to 4.1 (I think it was one of their  
admin power nerds thinking more cpu=better).

Let me try yanking the second CPU and power module and see what  
happens... I am going back there Weds....

with dual xeons does it think it's a 7845 and should have 4 drives?

I have a customer, they have an DL380 G3, that he wants to upgrade to  
CCM5... (he currently is running 4.1(3))

The box has 2GB of RAM, dual 2.4Ghz Xeons and two 72GB U320 Hard  
drives...

Keep getting an error after the media check that there are not enough  
hard drives... (2 of 4 found)

Using a CCM5.0(4) DVD...

Is this hardware configuration supported?
