Intelligent Provisioning
Several packaging changes have taken place with HP ProLiant Gen8 servers: SmartStart CDs and the Smart
Update Firmware DVD no longer ship with these new servers. Instead, the deployment capability is
embedded in the server as part of Intelligent Provisioning.
Intelligent Provisioning is a single-server deployment tool embedded in HP ProLiant Gen8 servers that
simplifies HP ProLiant server setup, providing a reliable and consistent way to deploy HP ProLiant server
configurations:
•
Intelligent Provisioning assists with the OS installation process by preparing the system for installing
"off-the-shelf" and HP branded versions of leading operating system software and integrating optimized
HP ProLiant server support software.
•
Intelligent Provisioning provides maintenance-related tasks through Perform Maintenance Options
features.
•
Intelligent Provisioning provides installation help for Microsoft Windows, Red Hat and SUSE Linux, and
VMware operating systems. For specific OS support, see the
HP Intelligent Provisioning Release Notes
on the HP website (
