Customer self repair
HP products are designed with many Customer Self Repair (CSR) parts to minimize repair time and allow for
greater flexibility in performing defective parts replacement. If during the diagnosis period HP (or HP service
providers or service partners) identifies that the repair can be accomplished by the use of a CSR part, HP will
ship that part directly to you for replacement. There are two categories of CSR parts:
•Mandatory—Parts for which customer self repair is mandatory. If you request HP to replace these parts,
you will be charged for the travel and labor costs of this service.
•Optional—Parts for which customer self repair is optional. These parts are also designed for customer
self repair. If, however, you require that HP replace them for you, there may or may not be additional
charges, depending on the type of warranty service designated for your product.
NOTE: Some HP parts are not designed for customer self repair. In order to satisfy the customer warranty,
HP requires that an authorized service provider replace the part. These parts are identified as "No" in the
Illustrated Parts Catalog.
Based on availability and where geography permits, CSR parts will be shipped for next business day
delivery. Same day or four-hour delivery may be offered at an additional charge where geography permits.
If assistance is required, you can call the HP Technical Support Center and a technician will help you over the
telephone. HP specifies in the materials shipped with a replacement CSR part whether a defective part must
be returned to HP. In cases where it is required to return the defective part to HP, you must ship the defective
part back to HP within a defined period of time, normally five (5) business days. The defective part must be
returned with the associated documentation in the provided shipping material. Failure to return the defective
part may result in HP billing you for the replacement. With a customer self repair, HP will pay all shipping
and part return costs and determine the courier/carrier to be used.
For more information about HP's Customer Self Repair program, contact your local service provider. For the
North American program, refer to the HP website (http://www.hp.com/go/selfrepair).
Parts only warranty service
Your HP Limited Warranty may include a parts only warranty service. Under the terms of parts only warranty
service, HP will provide replacement parts free of charge.
For parts only warranty service, CSR part replacement is mandatory. If you request HP to replace these parts,
you will be charged for the travel and labor costs of this service.
Réparation par le client (CSR)
Les produits HP comportent de nombreuses pièces CSR (Customer Self Repair = réparation par le client) afin
de minimiser les délais de réparation et faciliter le remplacement des pièces défectueuses. Si pendant la
période de diagnostic, HP (ou ses partenaires ou mainteneurs agréés) détermine que la réparation peut être
effectuée à l'aide d'une pièce CSR, HP vous l'envoie directement. Il existe deux catégories de pièces CSR:
Customer self repair 5
Page 6
Obligatoire - Pièces pour lesquelles la réparation par le client est obligatoire. Si vous demandez à HP de
remplacer ces pièces, les coûts de déplacement et main d'œuvre du service vous seront facturés.
Facultatif - Pièces pour lesquelles la réparation par le client est facultative. Ces pièces sont également
conçues pour permettre au client d'effectuer lui-même la réparation. Toutefois, si vous demandez à HP de
remplacer ces pièces, l'intervention peut ou non vous être facturée, selon le type de garantie applicable à
votre produit.
REMARQUE: Certaines pièces HP ne sont pas conçues pour permettre au client d'effectuer lui-même la
réparation. Pour que la garantie puisse s'appliquer, HP exige que le remplacement de la pièce soit effectué
par un Mainteneur Agréé. Ces pièces sont identifiées par la mention "Non" dans le Catalogue illustré.
Les pièces CSR sont livrées le jour ouvré suivant, dans la limite des stocks disponibles et selon votre situation
géographique. Si votre situation géographique le permet et que vous demandez une livraison le jour même
ou dans les 4 heures, celle-ci vous sera facturée. Pour bénéficier d'une assistance téléphonique, appelez le
Centre d'assistance technique HP. Dans les documents envoyés avec la pièce de rechange CSR, HP précise
s'il est nécessaire de lui retourner la pièce défectueuse. Si c'est le cas, vous devez le faire dans le délai
indiqué, généralement cinq (5) jours ouvrés. La pièce et sa documentation doivent être retournées dans
l'emballage fourni. Si vous ne retournez pas la pièce défectueuse, HP se réserve le droit de vous facturer les
coûts de remplacement. Dans le cas d'une pièce CSR, HP supporte l'ensemble des frais d'expédition et de
retour, et détermine la société de courses ou le transporteur à utiliser.
Pour plus d'informations sur le programme CSR de HP, contactez votre Mainteneur Agrée local. Pour plus
d'informations sur ce programme en Amérique du Nord, consultez le site Web HP
(http://www.hp.com/go/selfrepair).
Service de garantie "pièces seules"
Votre garantie limitée HP peut inclure un service de garantie "pièces seules". Dans ce cas, les pièces de
rechange fournies par HP ne sont pas facturées.
Dans le cadre de ce service, la réparation des pièces CSR par le client est obligatoire. Si vous demandez à
HP de remplacer ces pièces, les coûts de déplacement et main d'œuvre du service vous seront facturés.
Riparazione da parte del cliente
Per abbreviare i tempi di riparazione e garantire una maggiore flessibilità nella sostituzione di parti
difettose, i prodotti HP sono realizzati con numerosi componenti che possono essere riparati direttamente
dal cliente (CSR, Customer Self Repair). Se in fase di diagnostica HP (o un centro di servizi o di assistenza
HP) identifica il guasto come riparabile mediante un ricambio CSR, HP lo spedirà direttamente al cliente per
la sostituzione. Vi sono due categorie di parti CSR:
Obbligatorie – Parti che devono essere necessariamente riparate dal cliente. Se il cliente ne affida la
riparazione ad HP, deve sostenere le spese di spedizione e di manodopera per il servizio.
Opzionali – Parti la cui riparazione da parte del cliente è facoltativa. Si tratta comunque di componenti
progettati per questo scopo. Se tuttavia il cliente ne richiede la sostituzione ad HP, potrebbe dover sostenere
spese addizionali a seconda del tipo di garanzia previsto per il prodotto.
NOTA: alcuni componenti HP non sono progettati per la riparazione da parte del cliente. Per rispettare la
garanzia, HP richiede che queste parti siano sostituite da un centro di assistenza autorizzato. Tali parti sono
identificate da un "No" nel Catalogo illustrato dei componenti.
Customer self repair 6
Page 7
In base alla disponibilità e alla località geografica, le parti CSR vengono spedite con consegna entro il
giorno lavorativo seguente. La consegna nel giorno stesso o entro quattro ore è offerta con un supplemento
di costo solo in alcune zone. In caso di necessità si può richiedere l'assistenza telefonica di un addetto del
centro di supporto tecnico HP. Nel materiale fornito con una parte di ricambio CSR, HP specifica se il cliente
deve restituire dei componenti. Qualora sia richiesta la resa ad HP del componente difettoso, lo si deve
spedire ad HP entro un determinato periodo di tempo, generalmente cinque (5) giorni lavorativi. Il
componente difettoso deve essere restituito con la documentazione associata nell'imballo di spedizione
fornito. La mancata restituzione del componente può comportare la fatturazione del ricambio da parte di HP.
Nel caso di riparazione da parte del cliente, HP sostiene tutte le spese di spedizione e resa e sceglie il
corriere/vettore da utilizzare.
Per ulteriori informazioni sul programma CSR di HP contattare il centro di assistenza di zona. Per il
programma in Nord America fare riferimento al sito Web HP (http://www.hp.com/go/selfrepair).
Servizio di garanzia per i soli componenti
La garanzia limitata HP può includere un servizio di garanzia per i soli componenti. Nei termini di garanzia
del servizio per i soli componenti, HP fornirà gratuitamente le parti di ricambio.
Per il servizio di garanzia per i soli componenti è obbligatoria la formula CSR che prevede la riparazione da
parte del cliente. Se il cliente invece richiede la sostituzione ad HP, dovrà sostenere le spese di spedizione
e di manodopera per il servizio.
Customer Self Repair
HP Produkte enthalten viele CSR-Teile (Customer Self Repair), um Reparaturzeiten zu minimieren und höhere
Flexibilität beim Austausch defekter Bauteile zu ermöglichen. Wenn HP (oder ein HP Servicepartner) bei der
Diagnose feststellt, dass das Produkt mithilfe eines CSR-Teils repariert werden kann, sendet Ihnen HP dieses
Bauteil zum Austausch direkt zu. CSR-Teile werden in zwei Kategorien unterteilt:
Zwingend – Teile, für die das Customer Self Repair-Verfahren zwingend vorgegeben ist. Wenn Sie den
Austausch dieser Teile von HP vornehmen lassen, werden Ihnen die Anfahrt- und Arbeitskosten für diesen
Service berechnet.
Optional – Teile, für die das Customer Self Repair-Verfahren optional ist. Diese Teile sind auch für Customer
Self Repair ausgelegt. Wenn Sie jedoch den Austausch dieser Teile von HP vornehmen lassen möchten,
können bei diesem Service je nach den für Ihr Produkt vorgesehenen Garantiebedingungen zusätzliche
Kosten anfallen.
HINWEIS: Einige Teile sind nicht für Customer Self Repair ausgelegt. Um den Garantieanspruch des
Kunden zu erfüllen, muss das Teil von einem HP Servicepartner ersetzt werden. Im illustrierten Teilekatalog
sind diese Teile mit „No“ bzw. „Nein“ gekennzeichnet.
CSR-Teile werden abhängig von der Verfügbarkeit und vom Lieferziel am folgenden Geschäftstag geliefert.
Für bestimmte Standorte ist eine Lieferung am selben Tag oder innerhalb von vier Stunden gegen einen
Aufpreis verfügbar. Wenn Sie Hilfe benötigen, können Sie das HP technische Support Center anrufen und
sich von einem Mitarbeiter per Telefon helfen lassen. Den Materialien, die mit einem CSR-Ersatzteil geliefert
werden, können Sie entnehmen, ob das defekte Teil an HP zurückgeschickt werden muss. Wenn es
erforderlich ist, das defekte Teil an HP zurückzuschicken, müssen Sie dies innerhalb eines vorgegebenen
Zeitraums tun, in der Regel innerhalb von fünf (5) Geschäftstagen. Das defekte Teil muss mit der zugehörigen
Dokumentation in der Verpackung zurückgeschickt werden, die im Lieferumfang enthalten ist. Wenn Sie das
Customer self repair 7
Page 8
defekte Teil nicht zurückschicken, kann HP Ihnen das Ersatzteil in Rechnung stellen. Im Falle von Customer
Self Repair kommt HP für alle Kosten für die Lieferung und Rücksendung auf und bestimmt den
Kurier-/Frachtdienst.
Weitere Informationen über das HP Customer Self Repair Programm erhalten Sie von Ihrem Servicepartner
vor Ort. Informationen über das CSR-Programm in Nordamerika finden Sie auf der HP Website unter
(http://www.hp.com/go/selfrepair).
Parts-only Warranty Service (Garantieservice
ausschließlich für Teile)
Ihre HP Garantie umfasst möglicherweise einen Parts-only Warranty Service (Garantieservice ausschließlich
für Teile). Gemäß den Bestimmungen des Parts-only Warranty Service stellt HP Ersatzteile kostenlos zur
Verfügung.
Für den Parts-only Warranty Service ist das CSR-Verfahren zwingend vorgegeben. Wenn Sie den Austausch
dieser Teile von HP vornehmen lassen, werden Ihnen die Anfahrt- und Arbeitskosten für diesen Service
berechnet.
Reparaciones del propio cliente
Los productos de HP incluyen muchos componentes que el propio usuario puede reemplazar (Customer Self Repair, CSR) para minimizar el tiempo de reparación y ofrecer una mayor flexibilidad a la hora de realizar
sustituciones de componentes defectuosos. Si, durante la fase de diagnóstico, HP (o los proveedores o socios
de servicio de HP) identifica que una reparación puede llevarse a cabo mediante el uso de un componente
CSR, HP le enviará dicho componente directamente para que realice su sustitución. Los componentes CSR se
clasifican en dos categorías:
•Obligatorio: componentes para los que la reparación por parte del usuario es obligatoria. Si solicita a
HP que realice la sustitución de estos componentes, tendrá que hacerse cargo de los gastos de
desplazamiento y de mano de obra de dicho servicio.
•Opcional: componentes para los que la reparación por parte del usuario es opcional. Estos
componentes también están diseñados para que puedan ser reparados por el usuario. Sin embargo, si
precisa que HP realice su sustitución, puede o no conllevar costes adicionales, dependiendo del tipo de
servicio de garantía correspondiente al producto.
NOTA: Algunos componentes no están diseñados para que puedan ser reparados por el usuario. Para que
el usuario haga valer su garantía, HP pone como condición que un proveedor de servicios autorizado
realice la sustitución de estos componentes. Dichos componentes se identifican con la palabra "No" en el
catálogo ilustrado de componentes.
Según la disponibilidad y la situación geográfica, los componentes CSR se enviarán para que lleguen a su
destino al siguiente día laborable. Si la situación geográfica lo permite, se puede solicitar la entrega en el
mismo día o en cuatro horas con un coste adicional. Si precisa asistencia técnica, puede llamar al Centro de
asistencia técnica de HP y recibirá ayuda telefónica por parte de un técnico. Con el envío de materiales
para la sustitución de componentes CSR, HP especificará si los componentes defectuosos deberán
devolverse a HP. En aquellos casos en los que sea necesario devolver algún componente a HP, deberá
hacerlo en el periodo de tiempo especificado, normalmente cinco días laborables. Los componentes
defectuosos deberán devolverse con toda la documentación relacionada y con el embalaje de envío. Si no
Customer self repair 8
Page 9
enviara el componente defectuoso requerido, HP podrá cobrarle por el de sustitución. En el caso de todas
sustituciones que lleve a cabo el cliente, HP se hará cargo de todos los gastos de envío y devolución de
componentes y escogerá la empresa de transporte que se utilice para dicho servicio.
Para obtener más información acerca del programa de Reparaciones del propio cliente de HP, póngase en
contacto con su proveedor de servicios local. Si está interesado en el programa para Norteamérica, visite
la página web de HP siguiente (http://www.hp.com/go/selfrepair).
Servicio de garantía exclusivo de componentes
La garantía limitada de HP puede que incluya un servicio de garantía exclusivo de componentes. Según las
condiciones de este servicio exclusivo de componentes, HP le facilitará los componentes de repuesto sin
cargo adicional alguno.
Para este servicio de garantía exclusivo de componentes, es obligatoria la sustitución de componentes por
parte del usuario (CSR). Si solicita a HP que realice la sustitución de estos componentes, tendrá que hacerse
cargo de los gastos de desplazamiento y de mano de obra de dicho servicio.
Customer Self Repair
Veel onderdelen in HP producten zijn door de klant zelf te repareren, waardoor de reparatieduur tot een
minimum beperkt kan blijven en de flexibiliteit in het vervangen van defecte onderdelen groter is. Deze
onderdelen worden CSR-onderdelen (Customer Self Repair) genoemd. Als HP (of een HP Service Partner) bij
de diagnose vaststelt dat de reparatie kan worden uitgevoerd met een CSR-onderdeel, verzendt HP dat
onderdeel rechtstreeks naar u, zodat u het defecte onderdeel daarmee kunt vervangen. Er zijn twee
categorieën CSR-onderdelen:
Verplicht: Onderdelen waarvoor reparatie door de klant verplicht is. Als u HP verzoekt deze onderdelen
voor u te vervangen, worden u voor deze service reiskosten en arbeidsloon in rekening gebracht.
Optioneel: Onderdelen waarvoor reparatie door de klant optioneel is. Ook deze onderdelen zijn ontworpen
voor reparatie door de klant. Als u echter HP verzoekt deze onderdelen voor u te vervangen, kunnen
daarvoor extra kosten in rekening worden gebracht, afhankelijk van het type garantieservice voor het
product.
OPMERKING: Sommige HP onderdelen zijn niet ontwikkeld voor reparatie door de klant. In verband met
de garantievoorwaarden moet het onderdeel door een geautoriseerde Service Partner worden vervangen.
Deze onderdelen worden in de geïllustreerde onderdelencatalogus aangemerkt met "Nee".
Afhankelijk van de leverbaarheid en de locatie worden CSR-onderdelen verzonden voor levering op de
eerstvolgende werkdag. Levering op dezelfde dag of binnen vier uur kan tegen meerkosten worden
aangeboden, indien dit mogelijk is gezien de locatie. Indien assistentie gewenst is, belt u een HP Service
Partner om via de telefoon technische ondersteuning te ontvangen. HP vermeldt in de documentatie bij het
vervangende CSR-onderdeel of het defecte onderdeel aan HP moet worden geretourneerd. Als het defecte
onderdeel aan HP moet worden teruggezonden, moet u het defecte onderdeel binnen een bepaalde
periode, gewoonlijk vijf (5) werkdagen, retourneren aan HP. Het defecte onderdeel moet met de
bijbehorende documentatie worden geretourneerd in het meegeleverde verpakkingsmateriaal. Als u het
defecte onderdeel niet terugzendt, kan HP u voor het vervangende onderdeel kosten in rekening brengen. Bij
reparatie door de klant betaalt HP alle verzendkosten voor het vervangende en geretourneerde onderdeel en
kiest HP zelf welke koerier/transportonderneming hiervoor wordt gebruikt.

Neem contact op met een Service Partner voor meer informatie over het Customer Self Repair programma
van HP. Informatie over Service Partners vindt u op de HP website (http://www.hp.com/go/selfrepair).
Garantieservice "Parts Only"
Het is mogelijk dat de HP garantie alleen de garantieservice "Parts Only" omvat. Volgens de bepalingen van
de Parts Only garantieservice zal HP kosteloos vervangende onderdelen ter beschikking stellen.
Voor de Parts Only garantieservice is vervanging door CSR-onderdelen verplicht. Als u HP verzoekt deze
onderdelen voor u te vervangen, worden u voor deze service reiskosten en arbeidsloon in rekening
gebracht.
Reparo feito pelo cliente
Os produtos da HP são projetados com muitas peças para reparo feito pelo cliente (CSR) de modo a
minimizar o tempo de reparo e permitir maior flexibilidade na substituição de peças com defeito. Se,
durante o período de diagnóstico, a HP (ou fornecedores/parceiros de serviço da HP) concluir que o reparo
pode ser efetuado pelo uso de uma peça CSR, a peça de reposição será enviada diretamente ao cliente.
Existem duas categorias de peças CSR:
Obrigatória – Peças cujo reparo feito pelo cliente é obrigatório. Se desejar que a HP substitua essas peças,
serão cobradas as despesas de transporte e mão-de-obra do serviço.
Opcional – Peças cujo reparo feito pelo cliente é opcional. Essas peças também são projetadas para o
reparo feito pelo cliente. No entanto, se desejar que a HP as substitua, pode haver ou não a cobrança de
taxa adicional, dependendo do tipo de serviço de garantia destinado ao produto.
OBSERVAÇÃO: Algumas peças da HP não são projetadas para o reparo feito pelo cliente. A fim de
cumprir a garantia do cliente, a HP exige que um técnico autorizado substitua a peça. Essas peças estão
identificadas com a marca "No" (Não), no catálogo de peças ilustrado.
Conforme a disponibilidade e o local geográfico, as peças CSR serão enviadas no primeiro dia útil após o
pedido. Onde as condições geográficas permitirem, a entrega no mesmo dia ou em quatro horas pode ser
feita mediante uma taxa adicional. Se precisar de auxílio, entre em contato com o Centro de suporte técnico
da HP para que um técnico o ajude por telefone. A HP especifica nos materiais fornecidos com a peça CSR
de reposição se a peça com defeito deve ser devolvida à HP. Nos casos em que isso for necessário, é
preciso enviar a peça com defeito à HP dentro do período determinado, normalmente cinco (5) dias úteis.
A peça com defeito deve ser enviada com a documentação correspondente no material de transporte
fornecido. Caso não o faça, a HP poderá cobrar a reposição. Para as peças de reparo feito pelo cliente, a
HP paga todas as despesas de transporte e de devolução da peça e determina a transportadora/serviço
postal a ser utilizado.
Para obter mais informações sobre o programa de reparo feito pelo cliente da HP, entre em contato com o
fornecedor de serviços local. Para o programa norte-americano, visite o site da HP
(http://www.hp.com/go/selfrepair).
Serviço de garantia apenas para peças
A garantia limitada da HP pode incluir um serviço de garantia apenas para peças. Segundo os termos do
serviço de garantia apenas para peças, a HP fornece as peças de reposição sem cobrar nenhuma taxa.

Removal and replacement procedures
Required tools
You need the following items for some procedures:
• T-10 Torx screwdriver
• T-15 Torx screwdriver
• HP Insight Diagnostics (on page 80)
Safety considerations
Preventing electrostatic discharge
Before performing service procedures, review all the safety information.
To prevent damaging the system, be aware of the precautions you need to follow when setting up the system
or handling parts. A discharge of static electricity from a finger or other conductor may damage system
boards or other static-sensitive devices. This type of damage may reduce the life expectancy of the device.
To prevent electrostatic damage:
• Avoid hand contact by transporting and storing products in static-safe containers.
• Keep electrostatic-sensitive parts in their containers until they arrive at static-free workstations.
• Place parts on a grounded surface before removing them from their containers.
• Avoid touching pins, leads, or circuitry.
• Always be properly grounded when touching a static-sensitive component or assembly.
Symbols on equipment
The following symbols may be placed on equipment to indicate the presence of potentially hazardous
conditions.
This symbol indicates the presence of hazardous energy circuits or electric shock
hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified personnel.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury from electric shock hazards, do not open this
enclosure. Refer all maintenance, upgrades, and servicing to qualified personnel.

times.
• Unplug the power cord from the power supply to disconnect power to the equipment.
• Do not route the power cord where it can be walked on or pinched by items placed against it.
Pay particular attention to the plug, electrical outlet, and the point where the cord extends from
the server.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury from hot surfaces, allow the drives and the
internal system components to cool before touching them.
CAUTION: Do not operate the server for long periods with the access panel open or removed.
Operating the server in this manner results in improper airflow and improper cooling that can
lead to thermal damage.

the product QuickSpecs on the HP website (http://www.hp.com/go/qs).
The iLO 4 subsystem is a standard component of HP ProLiant servers that simplifies initial server setup, server
health monitoring, power and thermal optimization, and remote server administration. The iLO 4 subsystem
includes an intelligent microprocessor, secure memory, and a dedicated network interface. This design
makes iLO 4 independent of the host server and its operating system.
iLO 4 enables and manages the Active Health System (on page 77) and also features Agentless
Management. All key internal subsystems are monitored by iLO 4. If enabled, SNMP alerts are sent directly
by iLO 4 regardless of the host operating system or even if no host operating system is installed.
Embedded remote support software is available on HP ProLiant Gen8 and later servers with iLO 4, regardless
of the operating system software and without installing OS agents on the server.
Using iLO 4, you can do the following:
• Access a high-performance and secure Integrated Remote Console to the server from anywhere in the
world if you have a network connection to the server.
• Use the shared .NET Integrated Remote Console to collaborate with up to four server administrators.
• Remotely mount high-performance Virtual Media devices to the server.
• Securely and remotely control the power state of the managed server.
• Implement true Agentless Management with SNMP alerts from HP iLO, regardless of the state of the host
server.
• Download the Active Health System log.
• Register for HP Insight Remote Support.
• Use iLO Federation to manage multiple servers from one system running the iLO web interface.
• Use Virtual Power and Virtual Media from the GUI, the CLI, or the iLO scripting toolkit for many tasks,
including the automation of deployment and provisioning.
• Control iLO by using a remote management tool.
For more information about iLO 4 features, see the iLO 4 documentation on the HP website
(http://www.hp.com/go/ilo/docs).
The HP iLO 4 hardware and firmware features and functionality, such as NAND size and embedded user
partition, vary depending on the server model. For a complete list of supported features and functionality, see

Active Health System
HP Active Health System provides the following features:
• Combined diagnostics tools/scanners
• Always on, continuous monitoring for increased stability and shorter downtimes
• Rich configuration history
• Health and service alerts
• Easy export and upload to Service and Support
The HP Active Health System monitors and records changes in the server hardware and system configuration.
The Active Health System assists in diagnosing problems and delivering rapid resolution if server failures
occur.
The Active Health System collects the following types of data:
• Server model
• Serial number
• Processor model and speed
• Storage capacity and speed
• Memory capacity and speed
• Firmware/BIOS
HP Active Health System does not collect information about Active Health System users' operations, finances,
customers, employees, partners, or data center, such as IP addresses, host names, user names, and
passwords. HP Active Health System does not parse or change operating system data from third-party error
event log activities, such as content created or passed through by the operating system.
The data that is collected is managed according to the HP Data Privacy policy. For more information see the
HP website (http://www.hp.com/go/privacy).
The Active Health System, in conjunction with the system monitoring provided by Agentless Management or
SNMP Pass-thru, provides continuous monitoring of hardware and configuration changes, system status, and
service alerts for various server components.
The Agentless Management Service is available in the SPP, which can be downloaded from the HP website
(http://www.hp.com/go/spp/download). The Active Health System log can be downloaded manually from
iLO 4 or HP Intelligent Provisioning and sent to HP.
For more information, see the following documents:
• HP iLO User Guide on the HP website (http://www.hp.com/go/ilo/docs)
• HP Intelligent Provisioning User Guide on the HP website
If the server will not start up, you can use iLO 4 to display diagnostic information on an external monitor. This
feature is supported on servers that support external video and have a UID button or an SUV connector.
When power is available to the server but the server is not powered on, iLO runs on auxiliary power and can
take control of the server video adapter to display the HP ProLiant Pre-boot Health Summary.

HP Insight Diagnostics
HP Insight Diagnostics is a proactive server management tool, available in both offline and online versions,
that provides diagnostics and troubleshooting capabilities to assist IT administrators who verify server
installations, troubleshoot problems, and perform repair validation.
HP Insight Diagnostics Offline Edition performs various in-depth system and component testing while the OS
is not running. To run this utility, boot the server using Intelligent Provisioning.
HP Insight Diagnostics Online Edition is a web-based application that captures system configuration and
other related data needed for effective server management. Available in Microsoft Windows and Linux
versions, the utility helps to ensure proper system operation.
For more information or to download the utility, see the HP website (http://www.hp.com/servers/diags). HP
HP Insight Diagnostics survey functionality
Insight Diagnostics Online Edition is also available in the SPP.
HP Insight Diagnostics (on page 80) provides survey functionality that gathers critical hardware and software
information on ProLiant servers.
This functionality supports operating systems that are supported by the server. For operating systems
supported by the server, see the HP website (http://www.hp.com/go/supportos).
If a significant change occurs between data-gathering intervals, the survey function marks the previous
information and overwrites the survey data files to reflect the latest changes in the configuration.
Survey functionality is installed with every Intelligent Provisioning-assisted HP Insight Diagnostics installation,
or it can be installed through the SPP.
HP Insight Remote Support
HP strongly recommends that you register your device for remote support to enable enhanced delivery of
your HP Warranty, HP Care Pack Service, or HP contractual support agreement. HP Insight Remote Support
supplements your monitoring continuously to ensure maximum system availability by providing intelligent
event diagnosis, and automatic, secure submission of hardware event notifications to HP, which will initiate
a fast and accurate resolution, based on your product’s service level. Notifications can be sent to your
authorized HP Channel Partner for onsite service, if configured and available in your country.
For more information, see HP Insight Remote Support and Insight Online Setup Guide for ProLiant Servers and BladeSystem c-Class Enclosures on the HP website
(http://www.hp.com/go/insightremotesupport/docs). HP Insight Remote Support is available as part of HP
Warranty, HP Care Pack Service, or HP contractual support agreement.
USB support
HP provides both standard USB 2.0 support and legacy USB 2.0 support. Standard support is provided by
the OS through the appropriate USB device drivers. Before the OS loads, HP provides support for USB
devices through legacy USB support, which is enabled by default in the system ROM.
Legacy USB support provides USB functionality in environments where USB support is not available normally.
Specifically, HP provides legacy USB functionality for the following:
Diagnostic tools 80
Page 81
• POST (system boot)
• UEFI System Utilities
• Pre-boot UEFI shell
• DOS
• Operating environments which do not provide native USB support
External USB functionality
HP provides external USB support to enable local connection of USB devices for server administration,
configuration, and diagnostic procedures.
For additional security, external USB functionality can be disabled through USB options in UEFI System
Utilities.
Automatic Server Recovery
ASR is a feature that causes the system to restart when a catastrophic operating system error occurs, such as
a blue screen, ABEND (does not apply to HP ProLiant DL980 Servers), or panic. A system fail-safe timer, the
ASR timer, starts when the System Management driver, also known as the Health Driver, is loaded. When the
operating system is functioning properly, the system periodically resets the timer. However, when the
operating system fails, the timer expires and restarts the server.
ASR increases server availability by restarting the server within a specified time after a system hang. At the
same time, the HP SIM console notifies you by sending a message to a designated pager number that ASR
has restarted the system. You can disable ASR from the System Management Homepage or through RBSU.
