Creating a boot diskette
The SmartStart Scripting Toolkit provides the tools and information for creating a boot diskette. For details,
refer to the SmartStart Scripting Toolkit User Guide and download the latest version of the software from
the HP website (
http://www.hp.com/servers/sstoolkit).
As an alternative method, configure the hardware manually with RBSU and the iLO 3 remote console.
With this method, the disk is more generic and integrates with an existing network OS installation
process. For more information, refer to "ProLiant p-Class Advanced management."
To operate properly, the server blade must have a supported OS. For the latest information on a
supported OS, refer to the HP website (
http://www.hp.com/go/supportos).
Configuration tools
SmartStart software
SmartStart is a collection of software that optimizes single-server setup, providing a simple and consistent
way to deploy server configuration. SmartStart has been tested on many ProLiant server products,
resulting in proven, reliable configurations.
SmartStart assists the deployment process by performing a wide range of configuration activities,
including:
• Preparing the system for installing "off-the-shelf" versions of leading operating system software
• Installing optimized server drivers, management agents, and utilities automatically with every
assisted installation
• Testing server hardware using the Insight Diagnostics Utility ("HP Insight Diagnostics" on page 56)
• Installing software drivers directly from the CD. With systems that have Internet connection, the
SmartStart Autorun Menu provides access to a complete list of ProLiant system software.
• Enabling access to the Array Configuration Utility (on page 52) and Erase Utility (on page 54)
SmartStart is included in the HP Insight Foundation suite for ProLiant. For more information about
SmartStart software, see the HP Insight Foundation suite for ProLiant or the HP website
(
http://www.hp.com/go/foundation).
SmartStart Scripting Toolkit
The SmartStart Scripting Toolkit is a server deployment product that delivers an unattended automated
installation for high-volume server blade deployments. The SmartStart Scripting Toolkit is designed to
support ProLiant BL, ML, DL, and 100 series servers. The toolkit includes a modular set of utilities and
important documentation that describes how to apply these new tools to build an automated server
deployment process.
Using SmartStart technology, 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 server deployments to high volumes in a rapid manner.
For more information, and to download the SmartStart Scripting Toolkit, see the HP website
