Configuring Smart Arrays
On the HP ProLiant DL360 G4 with smart array cards, you must add the disks to the smart array before attempting to image the node.
To do so, watch the screen carefully during the
Specific instructions are outside the scope of the HP XC documentation. See the documentation that came with the HP ProLiant server for more information.
4.5.4 Preparing HP ProLiant DL360 G5 Nodes
Use the following tools to configure the appropriate settings for HP ProLiant DL360 G5 servers:
•Integrated Lights Out (iLO) Setup Utility
•
HP ProLiant DL360 G5 servers use the iLO utility; thus, they need certain settings that you cannot make until the iLO has an IP address. The HP XC System Software Installation Guide provides instructions for using a browser to connect to the iLO to enable telnet access.
