With the introduction of industry-leading ProLiant 8-way platforms, the ProLiant DL760 G2 and ProLiant DL740, HP is the first and only vendor to offer Hot Plug RAID Memory in an industrystandard platform. With the introduction of these two new platforms based on the HP F8 chipset, customers will be able to, for the first time, deploy mainframe levels of availability in their industrystandard IT environments, without the high cost of mainframe technology. With the HP/Microsoft solution, customers can dynamically hot-add memory capacity without powering down the server which delivers true resource scalability and maximum uptime for enterprise customers. The Hot Add Memory feature in the specified 4-way and 8-way ProLiant servers is only supported in Windows Server 2003 R2. The following Hot Plug RAID Memory driver and utility are included in Version 7.50A and later of the ProLiant Support Pack for Microsoft Windows Server 2003 R2: • HP ProLiant Hot-Plug Memory Configuration Utility for Windows Server 2003 R2 • HP ProLiant Hot Plug Memory Driver for Windows Server 2003 R2 Lights-Out management support Lights-Out management products, such as Integrated Lights-Out 2 (iLO 2), Integrated Lights-Out (iLO), and Remote Insight Lights-Out Edition II (RILOE II), remain an important part of the ProLiant solution adding new support for the Windows Server 2003 R2 operating system. Drivers for these products are included in the ProLiant Support Pack for Microsoft Windows Server 2003 R2.
