HP Insight Remote Support software

HP Insight Remote Support software delivers secure remote support for your HP Servers and Storage, 24 X 7, so you can spend less time solving problems and more time focused on your business. You can have your systems remotely monitored for hardware failure using secure technology that has been proven at thousands of companies around the world. In many cases, you can avoid problems before they occur. There are two HP Insight Remote Support solutions:

For small and midsize environments: HP Insight Remote Support Standard provides basic remote monitoring, notification/advisories and service dispatch. It is optimized for environments with 1 to

50 servers and can be installed on a shared HP ProLiant Windows application server. The software supports HP EVA storage devices, HP ProLiant, BladeSystems, HP Integrity and HP 9000 servers running Microsoft Windows, Red Hat Enterprise Linux, Novell SUSE and Novell Netware.

For midsize and large environments: HP Insight Remote Support Pack (formerly Service Essentials Remote Support Pack) is targeted for larger environments and is integrated with HP Systems Insight Manager (SIM). It provides comprehensive remote monitoring, notification/advisories, dispatch and proactive service support for nearly all HP servers, storage, network and SAN environments, plus selected Dell and IBM Windows servers that have a support obligation with HP. It also enables HP to deliver higher levels of proactive support in line with HP Mission Critical Services support agreements.

HP Insight Server Migration software for ProLiant

The HP Insight Server Migration software for ProLiant (SMP) enables administrators to upgrade or replace an existing server blade through server migration. SMP provides an automated, accurate, and affordable method of migrating existing server blades and their content to the latest server technologies.

SMP automates the migration of the operating system, applications, and data from one server blade to another without errors, eliminating the need for manual redeployment of these elements on the new server blade. During the migration process, the software automatically loads new drivers, required for boot, on the destination server blade. The wizard-based user interface simplifies the migration process and requires little experience or training.

For more information about the SMP, see the HP website (http://www.hp.com/go/migrate).
