HP ProLiant BL e-Class System Software Features

ESR, similar to ASR-2, is unique to the ProLiant BL e-Class system and is a
self-monitoring reliability feature of the Integrated Administrator. If the
Integrated Administrator does not boot or hangs during operation, ESR
automatically resets the Integrated Administrator for an attempted self-recovery.
The ProLiant BL e-Class server blades and interconnect tray are not affected by
ESR.

Health and Wellness Driver (server blade health driver) and Integrated
Management Log (IML) Viewer

The server blade health driver monitors operational data of the server blades and
logs abnormal conditions. This log is accessible by utilities, including Insight
Manager 7, and supports the HP Management Agents.

The server blade health driver provides the Integrated Administrator with the
thermal condition, status, operating system, and the name as defined within its
operating system for each server blade.

The IML Viewer, in conjunction with the server blade health driver, provides the
monitoring and management of logged system events, critical errors, power-on
messages, memory errors, and any catastrophic hardware or software errors that
typically cause a system to fail.

HP Management Agents

The HP Management Agents enable fault, performance, and configuration
management on ProLiant servers, so user can focus on their business while the
agents manage the servers.

Online ROM Flash

Using the Smart Components for Remote ROM Flash with the Remote
Deployment Utility (RDU) console application, Remote ROM Flash enables you
to upgrade the firmware (BIOS) on a server blade from a remote location.

ProLiant BL e-Class C-GbE Interconnect Switch Management System and
Utilities

provide a full suite of configuration and management interfaces and tools for the
ProLiant BL e-Class C-GbE Interconnect Switch (option). Full featured Web-
