Proactive Change Notification The Proactive Change Notification program uses the Subscriber's Choice website to proactively and automatically send you: ● Proactive Change Notification (PCN) emails informing you of hardware and software changes to most commercial workstations and servers, up to 60 days in advance. ● Emails containing Customer Bulletins, customer advisories, customer notes, security bulletins, and driver alerts for most commercial workstations and servers. You create your own profile to ensure that you only receive the information relevant to a specific IT environment. To learn more about the Proactive Change Notification program and create a custom profile, see http://www.hp.com/go/pcn. Subscriber's Choice Subscriber's Choice is a client-based service from HP. Based on your profile, HP supplies you with personalized product tips, feature articles, and driver and support alerts and notifications. Subscriber's Choice Driver and Support Alerts/Notifications deliver emails notifying you that the information you subscribed to in your profile is available for review and retrieval. To learn more about Subscriber's Choice and create a custom profile, see http://www.hp.com/go/pcn. ROM flash The workstation comes with a programmable flash ROM. By establishing a setup password in the Computer Setup Utility, you can protect the ROM from being unintentionally updated or overwritten, which is important to ensure the operating integrity of the workstation. Should you need or want to upgrade the ROM, you can: ● Order an upgraded ROMPaq diskette from HP. ● Download the latest ROMPaq images from HP driver and support page, http://www.hp.com/ support/files. NOTE: For maximum ROM protection, be sure to establish a setup password. The setup password prevents unauthorized ROM upgrades. System Software Manager enables you to set the setup password on one or more PCs simultaneously. For more information, see http://www.hp.com/go/ssm. Remote ROM flash Remote ROM Flash enables you to safely upgrade the ROM on remote HP workstations directly from the centralized network management console. Performing this task remotely on multiple workstations and personal computers results in a consistent deployment of and greater control over HP ROM images over the network. It also results in greater productivity and lower total cost of ownership. The workstation must be powered on to use Remote ROM Flash. For more information on Remote ROM Flash, see the HP Client Manager Software or System Software Manager at http://www.hp.com/go/ssm. HPQFlash The HPQFlash utility is used to locally update or restore the system ROM on individual workstations through a Windows operating system. For more information on HPQFlash, see http://www.hp.com/support/files and enter the name of your workstation when prompted. ENWW Desktop management 39
