Post-OS configuration tasks
The Copy HP ProLiant Post-OS Configuration task is tied to the HP ProLiant Post-OS Configuration
package. When executed it copies the contents of the package to c:\$oem$. This is necessary to
get the files onto the local server before the operating system is installed in case there is no network
connectivity after the operating system is installed.
The Perform HP ProLiant Post-OS Configuration task executes c:\$oem$\configure.cmd. The
script performs the following tasks:
• Installs various drivers such as networking and iLO.
• On Windows 2003, installs the storport hotfix.
• On Windows 2008, installs the SNMP feature.
• On Windows 2008, installs the HP System Management Homepage, HP Insight Management
Agents, HP Insight Management WBEM Providers, and on ProLiant Gen8 servers the HP
ProLiant Agentless Management Service.
To customize the Perform HP ProLiant Post-OS Configuration task:
1. Browse to .\OSD\Lib\Packages\Deployment\HP\ProLiant\PostOSConfig.
2. Edit configure.cmd as needed.
NOTE: HP recommends not removing commands already present, and to keep a backup
copy of any customizations as this file is overwritten during upgrades.
3. If necessary, copy any additional files referenced in configure.cmd to this folder.
4. Update the HP ProLiant Post-OS Configuration package to appropriate distribution points.
NOTE: To change which agents are installed by default, edit install.cmd in the agents
subfolder. However, disabling agent installation may result in a loss of functionality.
Inventory tool data
The inventory tool is a command-line utility. When executed with the /m switch, it generates
HP#.mif files in the NOIDMIFS directory. The information in these files is collected by the Hardware
Post-OS configuration tasks 17
