Introduction Benefits of the ISP Deployment Utilities The improved software features of the ISP deployment utilities make software maintenance easier by: • Increasing server manageability • Enabling administrators to update systems remotely • Reducing server maintenance costs • Saving time The ISP deployment utilities provide the following software maintenance benefits to system administrators: • Self-installable components with easy-to-understand software update descriptions • Components that can be installed individually or as part of a Support Pack • Installation logic and version control that automatically checks for hardware, software, firmware, and operating system dependencies, installing only the correct software updates and latest drivers for optimal system configuration • Silent command line options and return codes that enable scripting and enhanced integration of the ISP deployment utilities with HP Systems Insight Manager. • Integration with preconfigured server script files as part of the Rapid Deployment Pack • Common log files that provide easy access to a consolidated view of software installation history on target servers • Content in ready-to-run native operating system file formats that save time by installing directly from a CD or shared network drive By following the procedures described in this guide, the scalability of the ISP deployment utilities is enhanced to support high-volume maintenance and deployment of software upgrades. CAUTION: The ISP deployment utilities, ISPs, and individual components should be used only by individuals who are experienced and knowledgeable in the use of such software components. Before using these utilities, ISPs, and components to deploy a server or maintain software components, be sure to make a backup of the data on the target server and take all other necessary precautions so that mission-critical systems are not disrupted if a failure occurs. 1-2 HP Integrity Support Pack and Deployment Utilities User Guide

Introduction
Benefits of the ISP Deployment Utilities
The improved software features of the ISP deployment utilities make software
maintenance easier by:
•
Increasing server manageability
•
Enabling administrators to update systems remotely
•
Reducing server maintenance costs
•
Saving time
The ISP deployment utilities provide the following software maintenance benefits to system
administrators:
•
Self-installable components with easy-to-understand software update descriptions
•
Components that can be installed individually or as part of a Support Pack
•
Installation logic and version control that automatically checks for hardware, software,
firmware, and operating system dependencies, installing only the correct software
updates and latest drivers for optimal system configuration
•
Silent command line options and return codes that enable scripting and enhanced
integration of the ISP deployment utilities with HP Systems Insight Manager.
•
Integration with preconfigured server script files as part of the Rapid Deployment Pack
•
Common log files that provide easy access to a consolidated view of software installation
history on target servers
•
Content in ready-to-run native operating system file formats that save time by installing
directly from a CD or shared network drive
By following the procedures described in this guide, the scalability of the
ISP deployment utilities is enhanced to support high-volume maintenance and
deployment of software upgrades.
CAUTION:
The ISP deployment utilities, ISPs, and individual components should be used
only by individuals who are experienced and knowledgeable in the use of such software
components. Before using these utilities, ISPs, and components to deploy a server or
maintain software components, be sure to make a backup of the data on the target server and
take all other necessary precautions so that mission-critical systems are not disrupted if a
failure occurs.
