expensive for your organization. IT managers need to address changing
business needs with tools that meet the challenges of managing today's
complex Datacenters.
HP provides management solutions that are designed to simplify a
server's installation, configuration and maintenance throughout the
entire server lifecyle. This provides the customer with higher levels of
operational efficiency and highly reliable systems:

www.hp.com/go/foundation

.

The foundation pack includes:

HP SmartStart
HP Management
HP ProLiant Firmware Maintenance

SmartStart version supported (minimum): SmartStart 8.20

http://www.hp.com/servers/smartstart

NOTE:

In an effort to support reducing our environmental impact, the
HP ProLiant Essentials Foundation Pack media will be available as a
selectable option for this server at time of order of a CTO SKU. This will
allow customers to order the number of media kits that best meet their
needs and eliminate receiving unnecessary duplicate media.

ProLiant Onboard
Administrator

HP ProLiant Onboard Administrator (powered by the HP Integrated
Lights-Out 2 management processor) simplifies server setup, health
monitoring, power and thermal control, and lights-out remote
administration of ProLiant ML, DL, and BL servers. HP ProLiant
Onboard Administrator functions without additional software, and can be
accessed from any location via a web browser. It works hand-in-hand
with HP Systems Insight Manager, Insight Control suites, and the Insight
Dynamics-VSE suite helping customers unlock the value of the ProLiant
platform and deliver the highest possible quality of IT service to the
business. See

www.hp.com/go/onboardadministrator

HP Insight Control (ICE)
suites

HP Insight Control (ICE) suites, as product options, deliver essential
infrastructure management that can help save time and money by
making it easy to deploy, monitor, remote control, and optimize your IT
infrastructure through a single, simple management console. ICE suites
install and license software modules that are integrated into HP System
Insight Manager.

Two Insight Control suites are available, to serve environments requiring
either Linux-based or Windows-based management consoles: HP
Insight Control suite for Linux (ICE-LX), and HP Insight Control suite
(ICE). See

HP Insight Dynamics ­VSE suite

The HP Insight Dynamics - VSE suite for ProLiant, a product option, is
an integrated command center that enables you to continuously analyze
and optimize your adaptive infrastructure. This advanced infrastructure
management software that allows you to analyze and optimize your
adaptive infrastructure to manage physical and virtual resources in the
same way. HP Insight Dynamics - VSE gives you a powerful toolkit to
accelerate complex technology projects and simplify daily operations. It
enables you to plan capacity and power continuously, balance across
physical and virtual resources, ensure cost-effective high availability,
and provision infrastructure consistently.

HP Insight Orchestration, an optional extension to Insight Dynamics ­VSE, enables IT organizations to provision infrastructure consistently
and automatically from pools of shared resources using a self-service
portal. Resources provisioned can range from a single virtual machine
to complex multi-tier environments and their associated physical and
virtual resource requirements.

HP Insight Recovery, also an optional extension for Insight Dynamics ­VSE, enables cost-effective disaster recovery for physical and virtual
environments. Application environments can be reactivated in minutes
with the touch of a button to a remote location

Security - Trusted
Platform Module

Trusted Platform Module option kit

The TPM (Trusted Platform Module) is a microcontroller chip that can securely store artifacts used
to authenticate the server platform. These artifacts can include passwords, certificates and
encryption keys. Windows® BitLocker™ Drive Encryption (BitLocker) is a data protection feature
available in Windows Server® 2008. BitLocker leverages the enhanced security capabilities of a
Trusted Platform Module (TPM) version 1.2. The TPM works with BitLocker to help protect user
data and to ensure that a server running Windows Server 2008 has not been tampered with while
the system was offline. For more information about TPM, including a white paper, go to

www.hp.com/go/TPM

NOTE:

ProLiant OS pre-installed units will come with the partition required for TPM deployment.

NOTE:

The TPM key is unique to every TPM deployed server and must be retained. Misplacing or

losing the key could result in data loss.

Server Power Cords

High voltage power cord ships standard with all part numbers.

NOTE:

HP ProLiant DL servers no longer ship standard with a 12-foot NEMA 5-15P to C13 power
cords (227099-001) that allow connection to 110V US wall outlets in a home or office. ProLiant DL
servers are primarily connected to PDU's in data center racks so they now ship standard with only
a PDU 6-foot C-14 to C13 power cord (142258-001). If a user wishes to power a ProLiant DL
server using a110V receptacle (NEMA-15), the 12-foot NEMA 5-15 to C13 power cord (227099-

001) must be ordered separately. Also available: 110 volt 6-Foot NEMA 5-15p to C13 (AF556A).

Power Supply

HP has a new design for ProLiant power. The new Common Slot Power Supply bay. This design
provides the customer with commonality in power supplies across multiple platforms to save on
the cost of spares and allows HP to offer multiple power solutions to fit the customers' needs.
Many HP ProLiant Servers come with Common Slot, High Efficiency and Right-Size Power
Supplies. Common Slot (CS) designates commonality of the power supply across multiple
ProLiant servers. HP's new Common Slot power supplies are designed for highest efficiency to
provide power efficiency without degrading performance of the ProLiant. Power Supplies will have
efficiency ratings up to 92%. There are three Right Size power options available, depending on
the configuration of your server. To make sure you select the correct power supply to meet your
configuration, we suggest that you use the HP

Power Advisor

to decide the "Right-Size" for your
configuration. All HP Common Slot power sources are UL, CE Mark Compliant, Hot Plug and
Redundant.

1200Watts, Common Slot, 90% Efficiency
1200Watts, -48V DC, Common Slot

HP's ProLiant Common Slot Power supplies (460W & 750W) meet multiple Energy Efficiency
Initiatives. Climate Savers Computing Initiative GOLD, ECOS Consulting 80PLUS GOLD and
plans on offering models that meet the Energy Star for Server requirements when they are
published.

Rack Airflow
Requirements

Rack 10000 G2 series Cabinets

The increasing power of new high-performance processor technology requires increased cooling
efficiency for rack-mounted servers. The 10000 G2 Series Racks provide enhanced airflow for
maximum cooling, allowing these racks to be fully loaded with servers using the latest processors.

CAUTION:

If a third-party rack is used, observe the following additional requirements to ensure

adequate airflow and to prevent damage to the equipment:

Front and rear doors: If your 42U server rack includes closing front and rear doors, you
must allow 830 square inches (5,350 sq cm) of hole evenly distributed from top to bottom to
permit adequate airflow (equivalent to the required 64 percent open area for ventilation).
Side: The clearance between the installed rack component and the side panels of the rack
must be a minimum of 2.75 inches (7 cm).

CAUTION:

Always use blanking panels to fill all remaining empty front panel U-spaces in the rack.
This arrangement ensures proper airflow. Using a rack without blanking panels results in improper
cooling that can lead to thermal damage.

NOTE:

For additional information, refer to the Setup and Installation Guide or the Documentation
CD provided with the server, or to the server documentation located in the Support section at the
following URL:
