1.Install the host operating system on the server.

2.Install the SNMP subsystem on the server.

3.Configure SNMP on the host to use the community string and trap destination of the appliance.

4.Using the latest SPP, install the HP management agent set and associated drivers. You will be prompted for the SNMP community string and the trap destination.

5.After the HP management agent set and associated drivers are installed and running, add the HP ProLiant G7 blade server to the appliance.

If you install the agents and drivers after adding the G7 blade server, you might have to refresh the G7 blade server from the user interface or with REST APIs.

NOTE: If you change the appliance read community string, you must reconfigure all G7 blade server SNMP OS host agents to use the new read community string. The appliance cannot propagate this update to the host OS.
