Introduction

Each ISP consists of a deployment utility and setup and software maintenance tools designed
to provide an efficient way to manage routine software maintenance tasks. These tools
include ISP deployment utilities for Microsoft Windows Server 2003 64-bit server
environments.

ISPs and the ISP deployment utilities integrate with other software maintenance,
deployment, and operating system tools, providing the information and flexibility
needed to efficiently install, upgrade, and manage system software and reduce server
maintenance costs.

ISP Deployment Scenarios

The ISP deployment scenarios discussed in this guide are summarized as follows:

Graphical deployment on a single-target system using the Remote Deployment Utility

Command line deployment on a single-target system using the Remote Deployment
Console Utility

Command line deployment on multiple-target systems using the Remote Deployment
Console Utility

Command line deployment on multiple-target systems managed by HP Systems Insight
Manager

This guide also describes additional functionality of the ISP deployment utilities and
individual support software components, including several deployment script file examples
that can be modified to fit specific Windows Server 2003 64-bit server environments.

NOTE: If you install an ISP and then install an operating system Service Pack, a Support Pack, or
other operating system updates, HP recommends reinstalling the ISP.
