Configuration and utilities 59
Legacy USB support provides USB functionality in environments where USB support is normally not
available. Specifically, HP provides legacy USB functionality for:
•
POST
•
RBSU
•
Diagnostics
•
DOS
•
Operating environments which do not provide native USB support
For more information on ProLiant USB support, refer to the HP website
( http://h18004.www1.hp.com/products/servers/platforms/usb-support.html ).
Internal USB functionality
An internal USB connector is available for use with USB drive keys only. The internal connector shares the
same bus with the front external USB connector, and connecting a device to both the front internal and
front external USB connectors is not supported. This solution provides for use of a permanent boot drive
from a USB drive key installed in the front internal connector, avoiding issues of clearance on the front of
the rack and physical access to secure data.
For additional security, you can individually disable the front, rear, and internal USB connectors through
RBSU. Disabling the rear USB connectors in RBSU disables both rear USB ports.
Diagnostic tools
HP Insight Diagnostics
HP Insight Diagnostics is a proactive server management tool, available in both offline and online
versions, that provides diagnostics and troubleshooting capabilities to assist IT administrators who verify
server installations, troubleshoot problems, and perform repair validation.
HP Insight Diagnostics Offline Edition performs various in-depth system and component testing while the
OS is not running. To run this utility, launch the SmartStart CD.
HP Insight Diagnostics Online Edition is a web-based application that captures system configuration and
other related data needed for effective server management. Available in Microsoft® Windows® and
Linux versions, the utility helps to ensure proper system operation.
For more information or to download the utility, refer to the HP website
( http://www.hp.com/servers/diags ).
Survey Utility
Survey Utility, a feature within HP Insight Diagnostics (on page 59 ), gathers critical hardware and
software information on ProLiant servers.
This utility supports operating systems that may not be supported by the server. For operating systems
supported by the server, refer to the HP website ( http://www.hp.com/go/supportos ).
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.
Survey Utility is installed with every SmartStart-assisted installation or can be installed through the HP PSP
(" ProLiant Support Packs " on page 61 ).
NOTE: SmartStart version 7.5 and later provides the memory spare part numbers for the server.
