HP Insight Control Linux Edition HP Insight Control Linux Edition is an all-in-one software package that provides Linux-based management and deployment capabilities for the HP BladeSystem and its c-Class and p-Class ProLiant server blades. Built on Linux, the software includes an easy-to-use interface customized for blades and optimized for Linux users. HP Insight Control Linux Edition enables operating system deployment with both standard installation and image-based technologies. For more information about HP Insight Control Linux Edition, see the HP website (http://www.hp.com/go/icle). USB support and functionality USB support HP provides both standard USB support and legacy USB support. Standard support is provided by the OS through the appropriate USB device drivers. Before the OS loads, HP provides support for USB devices through legacy USB support, which is enabled by default in the system ROM. Legacy USB support provides USB functionality in environments where USB support is not available normally. Specifically, HP provides legacy USB functionality for the following: • POST • RBSU • Diagnostics • DOS • Operating environments which do not provide native USB support For more information on ProLiant USB support, see the HP website (http://h18004.www1.hp.com/products/servers/platforms/usb-support.html). Internal USB functionality An internal USB connector is available for use with security key devices and USB drive keys. This solution provides for use of a permanent USB key installed in the internal connector, avoiding issues of clearance on the front of the rack and physical access to secure data. External USB functionality HP provides external USB support to enable local connection of USB devices for server blade administration, configuration, and diagnostic procedures. For more information, see "Using the HP cClass Blade SUV Cable (on page 33)." For additional security, external USB functionality can be disabled through RBSU. Disabling external USB support in RBSU disables the USB connectors on the HP BladeSystem c-Class SUV Cable. Configuration and utilities 52
