Frequently asked questions

Why can't I boot the HUU from a KVM mapped DVD on a UCS C220 M5 server?

If you encounter an incorrect signature message while trying to boot the HUU, ensure that you are using a compatible version of the HUU. Some users have successfully run the HUU with Secure Boot enabled, so consider checking for any firmware updates or using a different version of the HUU. [community thread]
