Setup Optional installation services Delivered by experienced, certified engineers, HP Care Pack services help you keep your servers up and running with support packages tailored specifically for HP ProLiant systems. HP Care Packs let you integrate both hardware and software support into a single package. A number of service level options are available to meet your needs.
Optimum environment When installing the server in a rack, select a location that meets the environmental standards described in this section. Space and airflow requirements To allow for servicing and adequate airflow, observe the following space and airflow requirements when deciding where to install a rack: • Leave a minimum clearance of 63.5 cm (25 in) in front of the rack. • Leave a minimum clearance of 76.2 cm (30 in) behind the rack. • Leave a minimum clearance of 121.
The maximum recommended ambient operating temperature (TMRA) for most server products is 35°C (95°F). The temperature in the room where the rack is located must not exceed 35°C (95°F). CAUTION: To reduce the risk of damage to the equipment when installing third-party options: • Do not permit optional equipment to impede airflow around the server or to increase the internal rack temperature beyond the maximum allowable limits. • Do not exceed the manufacturer’s TMRA.
Because of the high ground-leakage currents associated with multiple servers connected to the same power source, HP recommends the use of a PDU that is either permanently wired to the building’s branch circuit or includes a nondetachable cord that is wired to an industrial-style plug. NEMA locking-style plugs or those complying with IEC 60309 are considered suitable for this purpose. Using common power outlet strips for the server is not recommended.
Installing hardware options Install any hardware options before initializing the server. For options installation information, refer to the option documentation.

Configuration and utilities 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.
Configuration Replication Utility CONREP is shipped in the SmartStart Scripting Toolkit and is a program that works with RBSU to replicate hardware configuration on ProLiant servers. This utility is run during State 0, Run Hardware Configuration Utility, when doing a scripted server deployment. CONREP reads the state of the system environment variables to determine the configuration and then writes the results to an editable script file.
Auto-configuration process The auto-configuration process automatically runs when you boot the server for the first time. During the power-up sequence, the system ROM automatically configures the entire system without needing any intervention. During this process, the ORCA utility, in most cases, automatically configures the array to a default setting based on the number of drives connected to the server. NOTE: The server may not support all the following examples.
Array Configuration Utility ACU is a browser-based utility with the following features: • Runs as a local application or remote service • Supports online array capacity expansion, logical drive extension, assignment of online spares, and RAID or stripe size migration • Suggests the optimum configuration for an unconfigured system • Provides different operating modes, enabling faster configuration or greater control over the configuration options • Remains available any time that the server is on
For more information about the RDP, refer to the HP ProLiant Essentials Rapid Deployment Pack CD or refer to the HP website (http://www.hp.com/servers/rdp). Re-entering the server serial number and product ID After you replace the system board, you must re-enter the server serial number and the product ID. 1. During the server startup sequence, press the F9 key to access RBSU. 2. Select the System Options menu. 3. Select Serial Number.
Integrated Lights-Out 2 technology The iLO 2 subsystem is a standard component of selected ProLiant servers that provides server health and remote server manageability. The iLO 2 subsystem includes an intelligent microprocessor, secure memory, and a dedicated network interface. This design makes iLO 2 independent of the host server and its operating system. The iLO 2 subsystem provides remote access to any authorized network client, sends alerts, and provides other server management functions.
HP Systems Insight Manager HP SIM is a web-based application that allows system administrators to accomplish normal administrative tasks from any remote location, using a web browser. HP SIM provides device management capabilities that consolidate and integrate management data from HP and third-party devices. IMPORTANT: You must install and use HP SIM to benefit from the Pre-Failure Warranty for processors, SAS and SCSI hard drives, and memory modules.
6. Wait for the server to emit two beeps. 7. Repeat steps 1 and 2. 8. Set positions 1, 5, and 6 of the system maintenance switch to Off. 9. Repeat steps 4 and 5. When the server boots, the system identifies whether the current ROM bank is corrupt. If a corrupt ROM is detected, the system boots from the backup ROM and alerts you through POST or IML that the ROM bank is corrupt.
For additional security, the external USB connectors can be disabled through RBSU. Disabling external USB in RBSU disables the front USB connector and both rear USB connectors. Diagnostic tools HP Insight Diagnostics survey functionality HP Insight Diagnostics (on page 74) provides survey functionality that gathers critical hardware and software information on ProLiant servers. This functionality supports operating systems that may not be supported by the server.
• From within Survey Utility • From within operating system-specific IML viewers o For NetWare: IML Viewer o For Windows®: IML Viewer o For Linux: IML Viewer Application • From within the iLO 2 user interface • From within HP Insight Diagnostics (on page 74) For more information, refer to the Management CD in the HP ProLiant Essentials Foundation Pack.
