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 (

http://www.hp.com/servers/manage

).

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
(

).

Redundant ROM Support

The server enables you to upgrade or configure the ROM safely with redundant
ROM support. The server has a 4-MB ROM that acts as two, separate 2-MB
ROMs. In the standard implementation, one side of the ROM contains the current
ROM program version, while the other side of the ROM contains a backup
version.

NOTE: The server ships with the same version programmed on each
side of the ROM.
