Software and configuration utilities 50
The Scripting Toolkit provides a flexible way to create standard server configuration scripts. These scripts are
used to automate many of the manual steps in the server configuration process. This automated server
configuration process cuts time from each deployment, making it possible to scale rapid, high-volume server
deployments.
For more information, and to download the Scripting Toolkit, see the HP website
(http://www.hp.com/go/ProLiantSTK).
HP Service Pack for ProLiant
SPP is a release set that contains a comprehensive collection of firmware and system software components,
all tested together as a single solution stack for HP ProLiant servers, their options, BladeSystem enclosures,
and limited HP external storage.
SPP has several key features for updating HP ProLiant servers. Using HP SUM as the deployment tool, SPP can
be used in an online mode on a Windows or Linux hosted operating system, or in an offline mode where the
server is booted to the ISO so that the server can be updated automatically with no user interaction or
updated in interactive mode.
For more information or to download SPP, see the HP website (http://www.hp.com/go/spp).
