Simplify Server Deployment and Maintenance

  • Use ProLiant Support Packs to deploy servers using consistent collections of support software components
  • Reduce the complexity and frequency of server maintenance updates, and limit the potential for driver incompatibility by using well-qualified software baselines
  • Monitor baseline compliance for groups of servers through HP deployment utilities or the Version Control Repository within HP Systems Insight Manager
  • ProLiant Support Packs are developed and tested concurrently with HP SmartStart releases to ensure trouble-free installation and operations

Flexible and Controlled Remote Software Updates

  • Deploy ProLiant Support Packs efficiently using the Remote Deployment Utility (RDU) for Windows or the Linux Deployment Utility (LDU)
  • The RDU/LDU are smart tools that simplify software maintenance tasks, reduce complexity and costs, save time and use resources more efficiently over the server lifecycle
  • Establish consistent server configurations deployed from a centralized software repository
  • Graphical and scripted command line options for deploying complete PSP bundles or individual HP software elements such as the Online ROM Flash Components
  • Software component updates contain details of critical fixes, new features and software revision history
  • Log Files provide a convenient way to access the software installation history of the server, including deployment successes and failures
