SmartStart Scripting Toolkit
The SmartStart Scripting Toolkit contains a set of DOS-based utilities
that enable you to configure and deploy servers in a customized,
predictable, and unattended manner. These utilities provide scripted
server and array replication for mass server deployment and duplicate
the configuration 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. It is an easy-to-use, intuitive software utility
designed for collecting server information including fault conditions,
performance, security, remote management, and recovery services.
■ Compaq Diagnostics Utility
The Compaq Diagnostics Utility displays information about the server’s
hardware and tests the system to ensure that it is operating properly. If
you used SmartStart to install your operating system, you can access the
Diagnostics Utility from the SmartStart CD.
■ Automatic Server Recovery-2 (ASR-2)
ASR-2 enables the server to boot automatically from either the
operating system or from Compaq utilities. If there is a critical system
failure, ASR-2 automatically restarts the server and can be configured to
page a designated system administrator.
■ Integrated Management Log (IML)
The IML provides a detailed log of key system events. This log also
monitors the server health log and is accessible from Compaq Insight
Manager XE and your Remote Insight Lights-Out Edition option.
■ Multi-Initiator Configuration Utility
The Multi-Initiator Configuration Utility enables administrators to
configure the Integrated Dual Channel Ultra3 SCSI controller for
support of Compaq storage and clustering options.
For more detailed information about these tools and utilities, see Chapter 9,
“Server Configuration and Utilities,” or refer to the SmartStart documentation,
the Server Setup and Management Pack, or the Documentation CD shipped
with your server.
