Preface This document provides instructions for configuring and using the SmartSetup Scripting Toolkit (SSTK) on HP Integrity servers running Linux. As of this publication, SSTK is supported on the following Linux distributions: • Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) □ RHEL4U4 (Backward compatible only1) □ RHEL4U5 □ RHEL4U6 □ RHEL4U7 □ RHEL4U8 □ RHEL5 □ RHEL5U1 □ RHEL5U2 □ RHEL5U3 • SUSE Linux Enterprise Server (SLES) □ SLES10SP1 □ SLES10SP2 □ SLES11 IMPORTANT: To continue to use SSTK with SLES9SP3 or SLES9SP4, you must retain and use SSTK v3.1 (SSTKLnx3.1) because support is discontinued for these distributions as of SSTK v3.2.
