NOTE: The software and, in some cases, the BIOS are unique to the HP D2D Backup System; it does not use the same software (nor, in some cases, BIOS) as the ProLiant server.

There are a number of ways of accessing the ProLiant documentation on the HP web. A quick method is to:

1.Go to http://www.hp.com/support/manuals.

2.Search on the ProLiant server name, as shown in Table 1.

How do I tell whether I have a G1 or G2 product?

In later revisions of D2D software, the Summary Page of the Web Management Interface will tell you the Type of product".

The product model number also identifies whether it is a G1 or a G2 product. This number can be found on the product label (you may need to remove the product from the rack to locate the label).
