Configuring Smart Arrays
On hardware models, such as the HP ProLiant DL385 G2 with smart array cards, you must add
the disks to the smart array before attempting to image the node.
To do so, watch the screen carefully during the power-on self-test phase of the node, and press
the F8 key when prompted to configure the disks into the smart array.
Specific instructions are outside the scope of the HP XC documentation. See the documentation
that came with the HP ProLiant server for more information.

Perform the following procedure from the iLO Setup Utility for each HP ProLiant DL585 G2
node in the hardware configuration:
1. Use the instructions in the accompanying HP ProLiant hardware documentation to connect
a monitor, mouse, and keyboard to the node.
2. Turn on power to the node. Watch the screen carefully during the power-on self-test, and
press the F8 key when prompted to access the Integrated Lights Out Setup Utility.
3. For each node, make the iLO settings listed in Table 3-3.
