The Scripting Toolkit provides a flexible way to create standard server configuration scripts. These scripts are
used to automate many of the manual steps in the server configuration process. This automated server
configuration process cuts time from each deployment, making it possible to scale rapid, high-volume server
deployments.
For more information, and to download the Scripting Toolkit, see the HP website

HP Service Pack for ProLiant

SPP is a comprehensive systems software (drivers and firmware) solution delivered as a single ISO file with
major server releases. This solution uses HP SUM as the deployment tool and is tested on all supported HP
ProLiant servers including HP ProLiant Gen8 servers.
SPP can be used in an online mode on a Windows or Linux hosted operating system, or in an offline mode
where the server is booted to an operating system included on the ISO file so that the server can be updated
automatically with no user interaction or updated in interactive mode.
