1.5.1 Support for Service Pack for ProLiant
With this release, Insight Control for Linux supports Service Packs for ProLiant (SPP). Service packs
and support packs (PSPs) represent OS-specific bundles of optimized drivers, utilities, and
management agents that provide you with a system software baseline that has already been tested
and verified by HP. SPPs also contain firmware.
You can download either the SPP or the ProLiant Support Pack (PSP) that is appropriate for your
ProLiant server and Linux OS from the following website:
http://www.hp.com/go/hpsc
The SPP is a complete and bootable ISO image file. It is compressed and must be unzipped before
copying it to the Insight Control for Linux repository.
For complete information on downloading the SPP or PSP and copying it to the repository, see the
chapter titled Managing the Insight Control for Linux repository in the HP Insight Control for Linux
User Guide.
