SmartStart software
SmartStart is a collection of software that optimizes single-server setup,
providing a simple and consistent way to deploy server configuration. SmartStart
has been tested on many ProLiant server products, resulting in proven, reliable
configurations.
SmartStart assists the deployment process by performing a wide range of
configuration activities, including:
• Configuring hardware using embedded configuration utilities, such as RBSU
and ORCA
• Preparing the system for installing "off-the-shelf" versions of leading
operating system software
