Scripting Toolkit

The Scripting Toolkit is a server deployment product that enables you to build an unattended automated installation for high-volume server deployments. The Scripting Toolkit is designed to support ProLiant BL, ML, DL, and SL servers. The toolkit includes a modular set of utilities and important documentation that describes how to apply these tools to build an automated server deployment process.

The Scripting Toolkit provides a flexible way to create standard server configuration scripts. These scripts are used to automate many of the manual steps in the server configuration process. This automated server configuration process cuts time from each deployment, making it possible to scale rapid, high-volume server deployments.

For more information, and to download the Scripting Toolkit, see the HP website (http://www.hp.com/go/ProLiantSTK).
