Hp Systems Insight Manager; Redundant Rom Support - HP ProLiant ML370 Generation 4 Reference And Troubleshooting Manual

HP Systems Insight Manager

HP SIM is a web-based application that allows system administrators to
accomplish normal administrative tasks from any remote location, using a web
browser. HP SIM provides device management capabilities that consolidate and
integrate management data from HP and third-party devices.
For additional information, refer to the Management CD in the HP ProLiant
Essentials Foundation Pack or the HP SIM website
(http://www.hp.com/go/hpsim).

Redundant ROM support

The server enables you to upgrade or configure the ROM safely with redundant
ROM support. The server has a 4-MB ROM that acts as two, separate 2-MB
ROMs. In the standard implementation, one side of the ROM contains the current
ROM program version, while the other side of the ROM contains a backup
version.
Safety and security benefits
When you flash the system ROM, ROMPaq writes over the backup ROM and
saves the current ROM as a backup, enabling you to switch easily to the alternate
ROM version if the new ROM becomes corrupted for any reason. This feature
protects the existing ROM version, even if you experience a power failure while
flashing the ROM.
Access to redundant ROM settings
To access the redundant ROM through RBSU:
1. Access RBSU by pressing the F9 key during powerup when the prompt is
displayed in the upper right corner of the screen.
2. Select Advanced Options.
IMPORTANT: You must install and use HP SIM to benefit from the Pre-
Failure Warranty for processors, hard drives, and memory modules.
NOTE: The server ships with the same version programmed on each
side of the ROM.
