Getting Started with Remote Graphics Software

First-time installs of the RGS Sender on Blade Workstations require installation via the iLO Remote Console. This requires use of the administrative console in Setup Mode (from the boot BIOS) to complete the RGS Sender installation. After the install completes, return the iLO Remote Console Mode to User Mode. Please refer to the HP Blade Workstation iLO documentation for further details about the iLO administrative console.

Installing the RGS Sender and Remote Desktop

Using Microsoft Remote Desktop to remotely install the RGS Sender for Windows is not supported. If attempted, the installation process displays an error message and stops the installation process. If installing the RGS Sender on a HP Blade Workstation, use the iLO Remote Console Mode in Setup Mode (from the boot BIOS) instead.

Unattended Installations

If you need to install the Windows RGS Sender on several systems, please refer to Creating Unattended Installers.
