2. If you want to host the Intelligent Provisioning software on the mirror, download the latest
version of Intelligent Provisioning and copy the files to your web server:
a. Navigate to the HP website:
ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softlib2/software1/pubsw-linux/p1048499843
b. From the newest folder, download the following files:
• Gaius.img.gz
• Vid.img.gz
• Hp_manifest.zip
c. Copy the files to your web server.
# cp gaius.img.gz /srv/www/ipupdate-1.00
# cp vid.img.gz /srv/www/ipupdate-1.00
# unzip -d /srv/www/ipupdate-1.00 hp_manifest.zip
3. Update the URLs in the SPP configuration files to address your web server:
a. Create or modify the file spp-version1/hp_manifest/config.xml, adding rules
to rewrite the URLs to reference your web server. For example,
<?xml version=”1.0” encoding=”UTF-8”?>
<hp_manifest schema_version=”1.0.0.0”><index>
<config>
<rewrite_url
pattern=”file://\.”
replace=”http://myserver/spp-version1”
/>
</config>
</index>
</hp_manifest>
In the previous example, Intelligent Provisioning replaces each URL that starts with
file:// with a URL on your web server. For example, a request for file://./hp/
swpackages/CP0012345.scexe is converted to http://myserver/
spp-version1/hp/swpackages/CP0012345.scexe.
b. Update spp-version1/hp_manifest/index.xml to reference config.xml if it
is not already listed.
<?xml version=”1.0” encoding=”UTF-8”?>
<hp_manifest schema_version=”1.0.0.0”>
<index>
<include src=”meta.xml” type=”meta” lang=”en” />
<include src=”meta-ja.xml” type=”meta” lang=”ja” />
<include src=”os.xml” type=”operating_systems” />
<include src=”type.xml” type=”type” />
<include src=”system.xml” type=”systems” />
<include src=”device.xml” type=”devices” />
<include src=”category.xml” type=”categories” />
<include src=”config.xml” type=”config” />
</index>
</hp_manifest>
