IMPORTANT:

The information in this section applies only to Windows P2P or V2P migrations.

Insight Control does not install all drivers (including NIC drivers) on the destination server. To acquire the
latest drivers, you must install the HP ProLiant Support Pack (PSP) following migration on the destination
server.

You can configure Insight Control to automatically install PSP after the Windows migration is completed. To
use this feature, you must upload the Windows PSP executable from the Upload Drivers tab on the Insight
Control Migration Wizard.
