How to run the tool
Compaq Survey Utility
Compaq Survey Utility gathers critical hardware
and software information on server blades.
If a significant change occurs between
data-gathering intervals, the survey utility marks the
previous information and overwrites the survey text
files to reflect the latest changes in the
configuration.
The Compaq Survey Utility is
available on the ProLiant
Essential Rapid Deployment
Pack CD or on the Compaq
website:
