Title: Help to get up to 12 gpus working on HP DL580 G7 server board Post by: spinx on January 15, 2018, 10:47:37 PM Hi, i just got myself a DL580 G7 to use as a platform for my new gpu mining rig, but i can't get more than 1 gpu (rx570) to work simultaneously.
My first guess was that there is a software bios setting for this, but i can't find such? Any ideas? I'm using SMOS, 1 card works great. The gpus and the risers all worked well in another system later. I really hope someone can point me in the right direction... All help is appreciated! My setup HP PROLIANT DL580 G7 4U RACK SERVER 4x E7-8837, 16GB, P410i/256MB, 2x 146GB, DVD 591205-001 HP DL580 G7 PCI EXPRESS RISER CARD 4x 1200W HP POWER SUPPLY (was planning to use 2 for system and 2 separately for gpu's) 2x Parallel Miner X7 BREAKOUT BOARD ADAPTER (12x 6pin PCI-E) 24x 24 inch 16AWG 6 Pin Male to 6 Pin Male PCIE Power Cable 12x 18AWG PCI-E 6pin to Dual 8-pin Y-Splitter Extension Cable 2X (6+2pin) Cable. 6in each side 12x 008S usb3 riser 12x Gigabyte AORUS Radeon RX 570 4G Usb with SimpleMiner OS This is what i found in several manuals, according to this i should get at least 4 gpus running? Is there a way to get 12 (with expansion board)? https://i.imgur.com/ENQPKMZ.png https://i.imgur.com/ijv1lzk.png https://i.imgur.com/J2Lel2d.png https://i.imgur.com/5yNAKIo.png https://i.imgur.com/XQLDp8u.png Manuals https://support.hpe.com/hpsc/doc/public/display?docId=emr_na-c02723324 https://h20195.www2.hpe.com/v2/getpdf.aspx/c04123267.pdf?ver=45 https://support.hpe.com/hpsc/doc/public/display?docId=emr_na-c02514196 Title: Re: Help to get up to 12 gpus working on HP DL580 G7 server board Post by: Amstellodamois on January 17, 2018, 04:23:15 PM I wish you the best of luck with this thing.

You need the right drivers for the hardware.
Use the internal GPU. Maybe the GPU-cards work without driver, only install the amd-sdk, no driver for the cards. Good luck !

That was my thought as well that the board drivers might not be baked into smos as he was trying to keep his OS size down.

Thanks, i have acquired a copy of Windows Server 2016 and "The Service Pack" from HP wich as i understand should contain all the latest drivers? https://www.hpe.com/us/en/product-catalog/detail/pip.5104018.html# |
