Run the Erase Utility if you need to erase the system for the following reasons:
•
You want to install a new operating system on a server with an existing
operating system.
•
You want to change the operating system selection.
•
You encounter a failure-causing error during the SmartStart installation.
•
You encounter an error when completing the steps of a factory-installed
operating system installation.
The Erase Utility can be accessed from the Software and Drivers Download
website (
http://www.hp.com/go/support ) or the Maintenance Utilities menu of
the SmartStart CD ("SmartStart software" on page 51 ).
Management Agents
Management Agents provide the information to enable fault, performance, and
configuration management. The agents allow easy manageability of the server
through HP SIM software, and third-party SNMP management platforms.
Management Agents are installed with every SmartStart assisted installation or
can be installed through the HP PSP. The Systems Management homepage
provides status and direct access to in-depth subsystem information by accessing
data reported through the Management Agents. For additional information, refer
to the Management CD in the HP ProLiant Essentials Foundation Pack or the HP
website (

HP Systems Insight Manager
HP SIM is a web-based application that allows system administrators to
accomplish normal administrative tasks from any remote location, using a web
browser. HP SIM provides device management capabilities that consolidate and
integrate management data from HP and third-party devices.
IMPORTANT: You must install and use HP SIM to benefit from the Pre-
Failure Warranty for processors, hard drives, and memory modules.
For additional information, refer to the Management CD in the HP ProLiant
Essentials Foundation Pack or the HP SIM website
