Key features and benefits
HP Insight Diagnostics simplifies the process of effectively identifying, diagnosing, and isolating
the hardware issues. In addition to robust management tools, service tools can be invaluable in
quickly resolving system problems. To streamline the service process and resolve problems
quickly, it is necessary to have the right information available at the time that a service call is
placed. The primary information requirement, which is also the one that provides the greatest
insight into potential system issues, is the configuration of the system. Insight Diagnostics helps
provide higher system availability. Typical uses of the Insight Diagnostics are:
Testing and diagnosing apparent hardware failures
Documenting system configurations for upgrade planning, standardization, inventory
tracking, disaster recovery, and maintenance
Sending configuration information to another location for more in-depth analysis
