Software components
Windows Storage Server 2008 R2 SP1 comes preinstalled and activated on the HP X5000 G2
Network Storage System. The operating system software contains the Microsoft iSCSI Software
Target and a Microsoft Cluster Service license. The storage system configuration also includes the
HP Initial Configuration Tasks window and HP Server Manager, which are used to set up and
manage your storage system.
The Initial Configuration Tasks window assists during the initial out of box setup by configuring
the network, configuring two nodes from a single node, and deploying the cluster. Use HP Server
Manager to further customize the storage system, such as managing volumes and spare drives.
To provide ongoing monitoring and facilitate management, the storage system includes the System
Manager, which provides a snapshot view of the health and status of the storage system and tools
to manage firmware updates.
