SmartStart Scripting Toolkit
The SmartStart Scripting Toolkit is a set of DOS-based utilities that
allow configuration and deployment of servers in a customized,
predictable, and unattended manner. These utilities provide scripted
server and array replication for mass server deployment and duplication
of a configured source server onto target systems with minimum user
interaction.
■ Compaq Insight Manager XE
Compaq Insight Manager XE is installed from the Compaq
Management CD and is an easy-to-use software utility for collecting
information on server performance. Data, including fault conditions,
security alerts, remote management, and recovery services are recorded.
■ Compaq Diagnostics Utility
The Diagnostics utility displays information about the server hardware
and tests the system to ensure it is operating correctly.
■ Automatic Server Recovery (ASR-2)
ASR-2 enables the server to boot automatically from either the
operating system or the Compaq utilities. If there is a critical system
failure, ASR-2 automatically restarts the server and pages a designated
system administrator.
■ Integrated Management Log (IML)
The IML provides a detailed log of key system events. This log, which
also monitors the server health log, is accessible by utilities, including
Compaq Insight Manager XE and Integrated Lights-Out (iLO)
Management.
For more detailed information about these tools and utilities, see Chapter 8,
“Server Configuration and Utilities” or refer to the SmartStart documentation,
the Server Setup and Management Pack, and the Documentation CD shipped
with your server.
