The HP Integrity Essentials Foundation Pack for Linux is a set of 3 CDs that includes tools for
server install, configure and manage the Integrity rx7640 and rx8640 servers as a part of an
adaptive infrastructure.
The Smart Setup CD contains the latest documentation, firmware, and tools that assist in the
server deployment process by preparing the server for installation of the Linux operating systems.
This EFI based setup utility application assists with tasks such as configuring storage adapters,
upgrading firmware, preparing a system hardware inventory, and installing diagnostics tools.
HP Integrity Essentials Foundation Pack for Linux also includes two management CDs to assist in
the on going server management tasks. These CDs contain the complimentary HP value added
software that aid in remotely diagnosing and monitoring system resources, and storage attached
to the system. This software includes:
HP Insight Management Agents

System Management Homepage
HP System Insight Manager
System Management Homepage provides a consolidated view of system hardware health,
configuration, performance and status information for individual HP servers. Included with the HP
Integrity Essentials Foundation Pack for Linux, the System Management Homepage is a secure web
based application that helps systems administrators respond rapidly and proactively to potential
and actual system failures, increasing system stability and reducing troubleshooting complexity. It
provides a consolidated view of all system health, in depth instrumentation and configuration
data, and simplifies access to HP web enabled management tools that include the Insight
Management Agents, Software Version Control Agents and the Array Configuration Utility.
The HP Systems Insight Manager is a core management element of the Integrity Essentials
Foundation Pack that is also included on one of the two Management CDs. This application
gathers and organizes raw system management agent information that enables operators to more
effectively monitor system usage and troubleshoot system problems. Customer benefits include
greater system uptime, quicker problem resolution, and lower cost of ownership for your Integrity
and ProLiant servers.
Serviceguard Manager can monitor and manage Serviceguard on Linux and HP-UX 11i clusters
