maximum system availability by providing intelligent event diagnosis, and automatic, secure submission of

hardware event notifications to HP, which will initiate a fast and accurate resolution, based on your product’s
service level. Notifications may be sent to your authorized HP Channel Partner for on-site service, if

configured and available in your country. The software is available in two variants:

HP Insight Remote Support Standard: This software supports server and storage devices and is
optimized for environments with 1–50 servers. Ideal for customers who can benefit from proactive

notification but do not need proactive service delivery and integration with a management platform.

HP Insight Remote Support Advanced: For customers with mid-size to large environments with over 500
devices who require HP Proactive Services, or customers currently using HP Operations Manager or

SAP Solution Manager to manage their environment, HP recommends installing the latest HP Insight
Remote Support Advanced software. This software provides comprehensive remote monitoring and

proactive service support for nearly all HP servers, storage, network, and SAN environments, plus

selected non-HP servers that have a support obligation with HP. It is integrated with HP Systems Insight

Manager. A dedicated server is recommended to host both HP Systems Insight Manager and HP Insight
Remote Support Advanced.

Details for both versions are available on the HP website (

Scripting Toolkit

The Scripting Toolkit is a server deployment product that enables you to build an unattended automated

installation for high-volume server deployments. The Scripting Toolkit is designed to support ProLiant BL, ML,

DL, and SL servers. The toolkit includes a modular set of utilities and important documentation that describes

how to apply these tools to build an automated server deployment process.
The Scripting Toolkit provides a flexible way to create standard server configuration scripts. These scripts are

used to automate many of the manual steps in the server configuration process. This automated server

configuration process cuts time from each deployment, making it possible to scale rapid, high-volume server

deployments.
