Scripting Toolkit for Windows and Linux
The Scripting Toolkit for Windows and Linux is a server deployment product that delivers an unattended
automated installation for high-volume server deployments. The Scripting Toolkit is designed to support
ProLiant BL, ML, DL, and SL servers. The toolkit includes a modular set of utilities and important
documentation that describes how to apply these tools to build an automated server deployment process.
The Scripting Toolkit provides a flexible way to create standard server configuration scripts. These scripts
are used to automate many of the manual steps in the server configuration process. This automated
server configuration process cuts time from each deployment, making it possible to scale rapid,
high-volume server deployments.
For more information, and to download the Scripting Toolkit, see the Hewlett Packard Enterprise website

SPP can be used in an online mode on a Windows or Linux hosted operating system, or in an offline mode
where the server is booted to an operating system included on the ISO file so that the server can be
updated automatically with no user interaction or updated in interactive mode.
