ICE-PIC series cards are NOT supported on HP DL360/380/580 G6/G7/Gen8/Gen9<ref>© 2017 Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.P. All rights reserved.</ref> servers under the default BIOS settings. Operation of the cards under the default BIOS settings '''VOIDS THE WARRANTY.'''

For proper operation in an HP DL360/380/580 G6/G7/Gen8/Gen9, a minimum 750W power supply must be installed, and thermal configuration must be set to '''“MAXIMUM COOLING”''' in the BIOS. Operation under “optimal cooling” or “increased cooling” is not supported and '''VOIDS THE WARRANTY.'''

* '''ICE-PIC Long''' cards must be installed in the top slot of the riser for G6/G7/Gen8 servers.
* '''ICE-PIC Long''' cards are NOT SUPPORTED in Gen9 servers as there is insufficient rear retention provided.
* '''ICE-PIC Regular''' cards may be used in HP DL380 Gen9 servers IF AND ONLY IF the following conditions are met:
*# ICE-PIC cards may only be installed in the middle PCIe slot of each riser, slots #2 and #5 (See Fig. 1.1-1.5 below).
*# The stock closed rear panels must be replaced with increased airflow panels (Fig. 1.1).
*# In the BIOS, the fan speed must be set to '''MAXIMUM COOLING'''

'''ICE-PIC6''' or earlier series DSP cards are ''NOT supported'' in HP DL Gen9 servers either internally or in external expansion chassis; however, the '''[[ICE-PIC7]]''' is ''fully supported'' both internally and in external expansion chassis with the proper setup.

== BIOS Setup Instructions ==

The process is the same for all these servers; however, the firmware versions are different. (See next section for versions).

1. Download the appropriate ROM firmware, and flash the BIOS ROM.

2. Enter ROM-Based (BIOS) setup utility.

3. Select <code>"Power Management Options" > "Redundant Power Supply Mode" > "Balanced Mode"</code>. (See Figs. 2.1-2.2; click for larger image.)

|}
4. Return to main menu.

5. Select <code>"Advanced Options" > "Thermal Configuration" > '''"Maximum Cooling"'''</code>. (See Figs. 2.3-2.5; click for larger image.)
