Deployment and Management ProLiant BL e-Class Server Blade Deployment Options The ProLiant BL e-Class server blades are designed for rapid deployment and are ideally suited for headless (unattended), network-based software installation and configuration. Rapid Deployment Pack is the optimum choice for ProLiant BL e-Class server blades and facilitates the configuration of a few or hundreds of servers from an easy-to-use, remote-based graphical deployment console. The PXE-enabled NICs and support for a bootable USB diskette drive on the ProLiant BL e-Class server blade also facilitate the use of other deployment methods. Automated Deployment Using HP ProLiant Essentials Rapid Deployment Pack Rapid Deployment Pack integrates two powerful products: Altiris eXpress Deployment Solution and the ProLiant Integration Module. The Deployment Server Console contains optimizations for ProLiant servers. It provides intuitive deployment jobs to deploy the standard hardware and operating system configurations and applications on any combination of server blades using both scripting and imaging, and then simultaneously deploys multiple server blades. Rapid Deployment Pack also has advanced features that can detect and display server blades based on their physical rack, enclosure, and bay locations. You can set the Deployment Server Console to automatically install pre-defined configurations on newly installed server blades.

Console contains optimizations for ProLiant servers. It provides intuitive deployment
jobs to deploy the standard hardware and operating system configurations and
applications on any combination of server blades using both scripting and imaging,
