ROMPaq utility
The ROMPaq utility enables you to upgrade the system firmware (BIOS). To upgrade the firmware, insert a
ROMPaq USB Key into an available USB port and boot the system. In addition to ROMPaq, Online Flash
Components for Windows and Linux operating systems are available for updating the system firmware.
The ROMPaq utility checks the system and provides a choice (if more than one exists) of available firmware
revisions.

Lights-Out 100i technology
The LO100i subsystem is a standard component of selected ProLiant servers that provides server health and
remote server manageability. The LO100i subsystem includes a dedicated or shared network interface. This
design makes LO100i independent of the host server and its operating system. The LO100i subsystem
provides remote access to any authorized network client, sends alerts, and provides other server
management functions.
Using LO100i, you can do the following:
• Remotely power up, power down, or reboot the host server
• Send alerts from LO100i regardless of the state of the host server
• Access troubleshooting features through the LO100i interface
• Integrate with HP SIM
For more information about LO100i features, see the LO100i documentation on the HP website

HP Integrated Lights-Out Virtual Floppy and CD-ROM drives
LO100i provides diskette drive and CD-ROM drive functionality through the LO100i Virtual Floppy and
CD-ROM features.
For detailed information about LO100i, see the HP Integrated Lights-Out User Guide on the HP website
(

USB support
HP provides both standard USB 2.0 support and legacy USB 2.0 support. Standard support is provided by
the OS through the appropriate USB device drivers. Before the OS loads, HP provides support for USB
devices through legacy USB support, which is enabled by default in the system ROM.
