HP Active Health System does not collect information about Active Health System users' operations, finances, customers, employees, partners, or data center, such as IP addresses, host names, user names, and passwords. HP Active Health System does not parse or change operating system data from third-party error event log activities, such as content created or passed through by the operating system.

The data that is collected is managed according to the HP Data Privacy policy. For more information see the HP website (http://www.hp.com/go/privacy).

The Active Health System log, in conjunction with the system monitoring provided by Agentless Management or SNMP Pass-thru, provides continuous monitoring of hardware and configuration changes, system status, and service alerts for various server components.

The Agentless Management Service is available in the SPP, which is a disk image (.iso) that you can download from the HP website (http://www.hp.com/go/spp/download). The Active Health System log can be downloaded manually from HP iLO or HP Intelligent Provisioning and sent to HP. For more information, see the HP iLO User Guide or HP Intelligent Provisioning User Guide on the HP website (http://www.hp.com/go/ilo/docs).

Integrated Management Log

The IML records hundreds of events and stores them in an easy-to-view form. The IML timestamps each event with 1-minute granularity.

You can view recorded events in the IML in several ways, including the following:

●From within HP SIM

●From within operating system-specific IML viewers

●From within the HP iLO user interface

Intelligent Provisioning

Several packaging changes have taken place with HP ProLiant Gen8 servers: SmartStart CDs and the Smart Update Firmware DVD will no longer ship with these new servers. Instead, the deployment capability is embedded in the server as part of HP iLO Management Engine’s Intelligent Provisioning.

Intelligent Provisioning is an essential single-server deployment tool embedded in HP ProLiant Gen8 servers that simplifies HP ProLiant server setup, providing a reliable and consistent way to deploy HP ProLiant server configurations.

●Intelligent Provisioning assists with the OS installation process by preparing the system for installing "off-the-shelf" versions of leading operating system software and automatically integrating optimized HP ProLiant server support software from SPP. SPP is the installation
