Quick Configs - HP ProLiant Gen8 User Manual

NOTE:
If you accidentally double-click the Insight Diagnostics icon, a message is displayed, notifying you
that you attempted to have two sessions of Insight Diagnostics open at the same time. To correct
the situation, follow the instructions provided in the message.
To access HP Insight Diagnostics:
• On the Intelligent Provisioning home screen, click Perform Maintenance.
• Select Insight Diagnostics from the maintenance options.
• The HP Insight Diagnostics window is displayed.
During offline testing, the user-installed OS is not running. Therefore, software information from the
system is not reported. Insight Diagnostics (Offline Edition) runs when the computer is started with one of
the following products:
• Intelligent Provisioning on HP servers
• HP Service Pack for ProLiant (SPP)
Clicking Exit Diagnostics exits the Insight Diagnostics application and returns to Intelligent Provisioning.
Insight Diagnostics is also available online as a web-based application. For more information, see the
Insight Diagnostics User Guide on the website (http://www.hpe.com/info/intelligentprovisioning/
docs).

Quick Configs

Use this feature to set a power management policy through Intelligent Provisioning without having to
configure individual settings through the RBSU or UEFI System Utilities.
NOTE:
Quick Configs is disabled for RBSU password-protected systems.
When initially configuring and provisioning a server through Intelligent Provisioning, Quick Configs is
presented in the Step 1: Hardware Settings on page 18 screen.
If the server does not have HPE DIMMs installed, the following Power Profiles might not all be available:
• Balanced Power and Performance—Optimum settings to maximize power savings with minimal
impact to performance for most OSs and applications.
• Minimum Power Usage—Enables power reduction mechanisms that might negatively affect
performance. This mode guarantees a lower maximum power usage by the system.
• Maximum Performance—Disables all power management options that might negatively affect
performance.
After selecting and applying a profile, a confirmation message appears.
To customize the individual settings, press the F9 key during server reboot to go to RBSU or UEFI
System Utilities.
