CURRENT
When a vendor has not published an exact date, we render an estimated range with an explicit confidence score — never an empty cell. See how to read TPM library records honestly.
Failure Outlook
Age: 3.2 years
Failure likelihood: 18%
Likely to fail (most → least)
- PSU Flex Slot connectors (hot-swap cycle wear)
- NVMe boot device (NS204i-u endurance)

| 24×7×4 remote only | $1,080 – $2,520 | $90 – $210 |
Pricing confidence: ●●○○○
Monthly = annual ÷ 12. Real TPM monthly billing is typically ~5–10% higher than this — use annual for accurate budgeting.

Security Context
Post-lifecycle security posture — buyer education, not a service pitch. See Why past-EOSL hardware becomes a CVE liability for the honest map.
- Patch availability

The HPE ProLiant DL380 Gen11 is an actively supported platform with HPE PSIRT still issuing coordinated firmware advisories; organizations should maintain a regular SPP patching cadence and keep iLO 6 firmware current, as multiple BIOS and iLO vulnerabilities have been disclosed since launch. The primary residual risk is the iLO 6 management plane: network segmentation of the dedicated management port, MFA enforcement, and disabling unused protocols are well-documented compensating controls accepted by NIST SP 800-53 and ISO 27001 frameworks. Compliance frameworks such as PCI-DSS and FedRAMP explicitly permit risk-acceptance with documented compensating controls where patching windows cannot be met immediately; maintaining an asset-specific risk register with documented patch exceptions is advisable.
Compensating controls that still work
- Isolate iLO 6 management port to a dedicated out-of-band VLAN with strict ACLs; disable iLO access from production networks.
- Enforce MFA on all iLO 6 administrative accounts and restrict access to a hardened jump host.
- Enable HPE Silicon Root of Trust, Secure Boot, and iLO Secure Start; verify TPM 2.0 attestation (embedded by default on Gen11) at each boot cycle.
- Subscribe to HPE PSIRT advisories and apply HPE Service Pack for ProLiant (SPP) bundles on a regular patch cadence—currently quarterly releases are available.
- Disable unused iLO features (IPMI/DCMI over LAN, SSH if not required) to reduce the management-plane attack surface.
- Log all iLO 6 events to a SIEM and alert on failed authentication attempts or unexpected firmware modification events.
Bushido publishes this information because it's the honest answer to the question "what changes at EOSL and what stays the same." We do not sell vulnerability management, patch orchestration, or MSP services — but you can find vendors who do in our vetted partners directory.

HPE — official sources
Independent cross-reference — not affiliated with Bushido
HPE PartSurfer shows spare-part BOMs including superseded / replacement part numbers. It has been intermittently unavailable — retry if it times out.
No single manufacturer publishes a cross-vendor "alternative parts" list, and no one official aggregates across all vendors. Lenovo and HPE expose substitute chains publicly; Dell and Sun/Oracle keep them internal or gated. These links are the honest map of where each vendor's data actually lives. If a link is dead or a portal has moved, tell us and we'll fix it.

BOM reflects the standard base/entry factory-integrated configuration (FIM SKU P52560-B21) and the underlying 8SFF CTO chassis (P52534-B21) at GA. CTO models ship without CPU, memory, or drives and require full configuration. Redundant PSU, additional DIMMs, drives, and higher-tier controllers are common upgrades. TPM 2.0 is embedded and enabled by default on Gen11 — no separate TPM module kit required. Service-part numbers may be superseded; always cross-reference with the HPE Spare Parts portal or QuickSpecs before ordering.
BOM is AI-synthesized from public datasheets. Cross-reference with the vendor's spare-parts portal before ordering.
