Pre-boot eXecution environment (PXE) PXE allows a new or existing system to boot over the network and download software, including Windows 2000, which is stored on a management or deployment server at another location on the network. PXE automates setting up and configuring new systems, enables decentralized software distribution, and remote troubleshooting and repairs. PXE can be used to deploy Windows 2000 on any server. HP ProLiant servers supporting PXE (at time of publication) are listed in Appendix a. PCI Hot Plug For Windows 2000, the implementation of PCI Hot Plug functionality enables hot adds, hot replace, and hot remove in all PCI Hot Plug-capable slots. IMPORTANT To properly implement PCI hot plug with Service Pack 4, use SmartStart Release 6.30 or SoftPaq13158. Download the SoftPaq from www.hp.com/cgi-bin/hpsupport/index.pl. Power down the device before removing a device from a PCI Hot Plug slot. This can be done using the PCI Hot Plug Unplug/Eject icon, the Eject/Remove applet of Windows 2000, or the HP PCI Slot Server Request button on servers so equipped. 24
