HP Insight Control Server Provisioning 7.3 Update 1 Build Plans Reference Guide

35
Custom Attributes: None
ProLiant HW - iLO Capture Configuration
Captures HP Integrated Lights-Out settings into a configuration file. The configuration file is stored on the target server
and then uploaded to the appliance.
The configuration file format is defined by the ProLiant Scripting Toolkit iLO utility.
Requirements: HP ProLiant server with iLO
Required Custom Attribute: configuration_location – The absolute filename of the captured configuration xml on the
target server. This custom attribute is already set on the HP supplied build plan, but can be modified if you make a copy
of the build plan.
ProLiant HW - iLO Set Minimum Password Length
Sets the HP Integrated Lights-Out minimum password length.
This is a sample build plan that can be modified to set any iLO settings. Just replace the configuration file with one that
specifies the settings you want. The configuration file format is defined by the ProLiant Scripting Toolkit iLO utility.
Requirements: HP ProLiant server with iLO
Custom Attributes: None
ProLiant HW - Prepare for Linux Reprovisioning
ProLiant HW - Prepare for Windows Reprovisioning
Prepares a provisioned target server for reprovisioning by decommissioning it and booting it into a service OS
(maintenance mode).
Target servers provisioned by IC server provisioning contain certificates that uniquely and securely identify the server to
the appliance. The appliance expects to retrieve this information every time the target server boots. This can cause
problems when attempting to reprovision a server or when a server’s hard drive is erased, as the service OS may not be
able to retrieve these certificates. These build plans contain the Decommission Server step, which breaks that security
requirement as part of the process of booting into the service OS.
NOTE: Only run this if you are certain that you will not want the target server to boot into production mode any more.
Once you run this build plan on a server, the production agent on that server will not be able to communicate with the
appliance.
Requirements: HP ProLiant server with iLO
Custom Attributes: None
ProLiant HW - Smart Array Capture Settings
Captures the HP Smart Array current configuration into a configuration file. The configuration file is stored on the target
server and then uploaded to the appliance.
The configuration file format is defined by the HP SSACLI scripting utility and may be used as input for Manage Smart
Array Configuration script. This build plan will unmounts the production drives while in the service OS.
Requirements: HP ProLiant server with iLO and a Smart Array controller
Required Custom Attribute: configuration_location – The absolute filename of the captured configuration xml on the
target server. This custom attribute is already set on the HP supplied build plan, but can be modified if you make a copy
of the build plan.
ProLiant HW - Smart Array Erase
This build plan resets the Smart Array, clearing the configuration.
IMPORTANT: Running this build plan causes the loss of all data on the Smart Array disks.
The server's state will change to unmanaged, due to potential loss of critical identification and agent association data.
