HP Insight Diagnostics 
HP Insight Diagnostics is a proactive server management tool, available in both offline and online versions, 
that provides diagnostics and troubleshooting capabilities to assist IT administrators who verify server 
installations, troubleshoot problems, and perform repair validation. 
HP Insight Diagnostics Offline Edition performs various in-depth system and component testing while the OS 
is not running. To run this utility, boot the server using Intelligent Provisioning. 
HP Insight Diagnostics Online Edition is a web-based application that captures system configuration and 
other related data needed for effective server management. Available in Microsoft Windows and Linux 
versions, the utility helps to ensure proper system operation. 
For more information or to download the utility, see the HP website (http://www.hp.com/servers/diags). HP 
Insight Diagnostics Online Edition is also available in the SPP. 
 
HP Insight Diagnostics survey functionality 
HP Insight Diagnostics (on page 83) provides survey functionality that gathers critical hardware and software 
information on ProLiant servers. 
This functionality supports operating systems that are supported by the server. For operating systems 
supported by the server, see the HP website (http://www.hp.com/go/supportos). 
If a significant change occurs between data-gathering intervals, the survey function marks the previous 
information and overwrites the survey data files to reflect the latest changes in the configuration. 
Survey functionality is installed with every Intelligent Provisioning-assisted HP Insight Diagnostics installation, 
or it can be installed through the SPP.

HP strongly recommends that you register your device for remote support to enable enhanced delivery of 
your HP Warranty, HP Care Pack Service, or HP contractual support agreement. HP Insight Remote Support 
supplements your monitoring continuously to ensure 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 onsite service, if configured and available in your country.
