We supplied an HP ProLiant Server for one of our clients,
Afriland First Bank Liberia. In a few days the, the client request that we
(NATC) come over and do the installation of the software (Windows Server 2008
R2 Standard). I arranged my software quickly and stop by at the bank. My
arrival was announced to the IT department but unfortunately, the IT Manager
had left the bank. He instructed that I deliver the software (OS) to any of his
colleagues of his department. The next day on my way to work I got a call from
my boss saying ‘’ Daniel, the bank have some issues with the installation of
the server operating system (OS). You need to pass by and see what’s the
problem is and have it resolved as soon as possible!’’ He also shared the error
message with me on our WhatsApp channel, as it is one of the easier and smooth
ways the team works and communicate with each other these days, very
interesting!
Well, below was the error message of the server shown during
shutdown. This error does not occur on a “warm” restart of the server. It only
occurs during shutdown. I quickly continue my journey to my office, downloaded
the needful, went back to client site, and updated the firmware in resolving
the problem.
If you may have experience such problem after installation of
Microsoft Windows Server 2008R2 Standard in your server environment, there’s no
need changing your OS/ operating system
or server brand. A firmware upgrade is required. Download the firmware
of the exact brand and OS to save yourself the stress by clicking the link
