Installing device drivers
The drivers for the controller are located on the Support Software CD or the SmartStart CD that is
provided in the controller kit. Updates are posted to the HP website (http://www.hp.com/support).

Using the Support Software CD: Instructions for installing the drivers from the Support Software CD are given in the leaflet that is supplied with the CD.

Using the SmartStart CD: If you use the Assisted Installation path feature of SmartStart to install the operating system on a new server, the drivers are automatically installed at the same time.

You can also use SmartStart to update the drivers manually on systems that are already configured. For more information, refer to the SmartStart documentation.

Installing Management Agents

If you use the Assisted Installation path feature of SmartStart to install the operating system on a new server, the Management Agents are automatically installed at the same time.

You can update the Management Agents by using the latest versions of the agents from the HP website (http://www.hp.com/servers/manage). The procedure for updating the agents is provided on the same Web page.

If the new agents do not function correctly, you might also need to update Systems Insight Manager. The latest version of Systems Insight Manager is available for download at the HP website (http://www.hp.com/servers/manage).
