The HP DL380z Gen8 ROM identifies itself as an HP Proliant DL380p Gen8 platform. This is to
be expected and is correct behavior.
HP ROM (Read Only Memory) is now digitally signed using HP's Corporate Signing Service.
This signature is verified before the flash process starts, reducing accidental programming and
preventing malicious efforts to corrupt system ROM.
HP ROM provides for essential initialization and validation of hardware components before
control is passed to the customer-installed operating system. The ROM also provides the
capability of booting from various fixed media (HDD, CD-ROM) and removable media (USB), to
continue operation to the operating system.
HP ROM performs very early configuration of the video controller, to allow monitoring of
initialization progress via an attached monitor. If configuration or hardware errors are
discovered during this early phase of hardware initialization, suitable messages are now
displayed on the connected monitor. Additionally, these configuration or hardware errors are
logged to the Integrated Management Log (IML) to assist in diagnosis.
HP's ProLiant ROM is used to configure the following:
Processor and chipset status registers
System memory, memory map, and memory initialization
System hardware configuration (Integrated PCI devices and optional PCIe cards).
Customer-specific BIOS configuration (using the HP ROM-Based Setup Utility (RBSU).
