SSD not detecting during installation RHEL 7.9 on server R250

ZAIN_ALI,

Would you confirm a few things for me?

What is the part number of the SSD in question?

Are you using a hardware controller, if so which one?

If you have a controller, have you configured the drive there yet?

Why are you trying to install RHEL 7.9, is that a requirement? 

I ask as seen on page 15 here, RHEL 7.9 isn't supported on the R250, just 8.0 and above.

Let me know what you see. 

Chris H,

RHEL is the requirement from the customer.

I am using the PERC S150 Controller

However I have updated the driver and firmware before going for installation and here is the list of them with their current versions, 

If I am missing anything or anything about the configuration of controller so please let me know.

Hello this may help:

Linux RAID

Linux operating systems supported:

• Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.0 and above
• SUSE Linux Enterprise Server version 15 SP1 and above

Hi,

I have attempted to install RHEL 8.2, but when I reach the installation stage, no drives are appearing as options for installation.

Additionally, during the installation process, there is a dropdown menu with the following options available. However, I have chosen a different option "Any Other Operating System" and proceeded with the OS installation.

Do you think selecting the alternative option could be a possible cause of this issue?

Hi, please check driver OS pack is up to date I found this https://dell.to/44kNQa6;

Do you use Dell-certified SSDs? please check your SSD is configured properly in the BIOS Configuration Utility or Ctrl+R. You may need to check if your SSD is visible, online, initialized in the BIOS Configuration Utility or Ctrl+R. If not.
