Description
Insight Diagnostics tests and verifies operation of
HP hardware. If Diagnostics finds a hardware
failure, it isolates the replaceable part, if possible.
Insight Diagnostics also gathers critical hardware
and software information on ProLiant servers.
When run on the ProLiant 300/500/700 series
units, HP Systems Insight Manager provides a
central management station to monitor the up and
down status of the ProLiant 100 server series and
provide system inventory and configuration
information.
This utility configures the hardware installed in or
connected to the server. Specifically, it can:
Configure system devices and installed options
View system information
Select the boot device and boot priority Configure
ports and IRQs, if required
The SEL is a part of the BIOS Setup Utility
described above. The SEL is a log of system
events such as system failures or nonfatal error
conditions.
The ROMPaq Utility checks the system and
provides a choice of available ROM revisions and
firmware.
The watchdog timer is a function of the
Management Processor.
