Software and configuration utilities 49
HP Insight Diagnostics Online Edition is a web-based application that captures system configuration and
other related data needed for effective server blade management. Available in Microsoft Windows and
Linux versions, the utility helps to ensure proper system operation.
For more information or to download the utility, see the HP website (http://www.hp.com/servers/diags). HP
Insight Diagnostics Online Edition is also available in the SPP. For more information, see the HP website
(http://www.hp.com/go/spp/download).
HP Insight Diagnostics survey functionality
HP Insight Diagnostics (on page 48) provides survey functionality that gathers critical hardware and software
information on ProLiant server blades.
This functionality supports operating systems that are supported by the server blade. For operating systems
supported by the server blade, see the HP website (http://www.hp.com/go/supportos).
If a significant change occurs between data-gathering intervals, the survey function marks the previous
information and overwrites the survey data files to reflect the latest changes in the configuration.
Survey functionality is installed with every Intelligent Provisioning-assisted HP Insight Diagnostics installation,
or it can be installed through the SPP ("HP Service Pack for ProLiant" on page 50).
