HP Insight Diagnostics
The HP Insight Diagnostics utility displays information about the server hardware and tests
the system to be sure it is operating properly. The utility has online help and can be accessed
using the SmartStart CD. Online Diagnostics for Microsoft Windows is available for
download from the HP website (http://www.hp.com/support).
USB Support
HP provides both standard USB support and legacy USB support. Standard support is
provided by the operating system through the appropriate USB device drivers. HP provides
support for USB devices before the operating system is loaded through legacy USB support,
which is enabled by default in the system ROM. HP hardware supports USB version 1.1 or
2.0, depending on the version of the hardware.
Legacy USB support provides USB functionality in environments where USB support is
normally not available. Specifically, HP provides legacy USB functionality for:
POST
RBSU
Diagnostics
DOS
Operating environments which do not provide native USB support
For more information on ProLiant USB support, refer to the HP website
(http://h18004.www1.hp.com/products/servers/platforms/usb-support.html).
Internal USB Functionality
An internal USB connector is available for use with USB devices. The internal connector is
on a dedicated bus and is separate from the front USB port. This solution provides for use of
a permanent boot drive from a USB drive key installed in the front internal connector,
avoiding issues of clearance on the front of the rack and physical access to secure data.
For additional security, you can disable the internal, front or rear USB connectors through
RBSU.
An internal USB connector is available for use with USB drive keys only. The internal
connector shares the same bus with the front external USB connector, and connecting a
device to both the front internal and front external USB connectors is not supported. This
solution provides for use of a permanent boot drive from a USB drive key installed in the
front internal connector, avoiding issues of clearance on the front of the rack and physical
access to secure data.
