Keeping the system current
Drivers
The server includes new hardware that may not have driver support on all operating system installation
media.
If you are installing a SmartStart-supported operating system, use the SmartStart software (on page
48
)
and its Assisted Path feature to install the operating system and latest driver support.
NOTE:
If you are installing drivers from the SmartStart CD or the Software Maintenance CD,
refer to the SmartStart website (
http://www.hp.com/servers/smartstart
) to be sure that you are
using the latest version of SmartStart. For more information, refer to the documentation
provided with the SmartStart CD.
If you do not use the SmartStart CD to install an operating system, drivers for some of the new hardware
are required. These drivers, as well as other option drivers, ROM images, and value-add software can be
downloaded from the HP website (
http://www.hp.com/support
).
IMPORTANT:
Always perform a backup before installing or updating device drivers.
