Installing the operating system for
Gen8 servers
ProLiant Gen8 blades do not ship with provisioning media. However,
ProLiant Gen8 blades are preloaded with the media to manage and
install the system software and firmware.
To operate properly, the blade must have a supported operating
system. For the latest information on operating system support, see the
HP website (http://www.hp.com/go/supportos).
To install an operating system on the blade, use one of the following
methods:
• Intelligent Provisioning—The iLO Management Engine is a new
feature on ProLiant blades that contains Intelligent Provisioning
for embedded deployment, updating, and provisioning
capabilities. Intelligent Provisioning can configure the blade and
install an operating system, eliminating the need for SmartStart
CDs and Smart Update Firmware DVDs.
To install an operating system on the blade with Intelligent
Provisioning (local or remote):
a. Ensure network connectivity and power on the blade.
b. Through a remote control session, during server POST, press
the F10.
c. Complete the initial Preferences and Registration portion of
Intelligent Provisioning.
d. At the Home screen, click the Configure and Install button.
e. Follow the on-screen prompts to finish the installation. (To
update the firmware and systems software, an Internet
connection is required.)
• Remote deployment installation—Use Insight Control server
deployment for an automated solution to remotely deploy an
operating system.
For additional system software and firmware updates, download the
HP Service Pack for ProLiant (SPP) from the HP website
(http://www.hp.com/go/spp/download).
The Smart Update Firmware DVD ISO is also available at the
download tab on the HP website
(http://www.hp.com/go/foundation).
For information on using these installation methods, see the HP website
(http://www.hp.com/go/ilo).
