USB support HP provides both standard USB 2.0 support and legacy USB 2.0 support. Standard support is provided by the OS through the appropriate USB device drivers. Before the OS loads, HP provides support for USB devices through legacy USB support, which is enabled by default in the system ROM. Legacy USB support provides USB functionality in environments where USB support is not available normally. Specifically, HP provides legacy USB functionality for the following: • POST (system boot) • RBSU or UEFI System Utilities • Pre-boot UEFI shell • DOS • Operating environments which do not provide native USB support Redundant ROM support The server enables you to upgrade or configure the ROM safely with redundant ROM support. The server has a single ROM that acts as two separate ROM images. In the standard implementation, one side of the ROM contains the current ROM program version, while the other side of the ROM contains a backup version. NOTE: The server ships with the same version programmed on each side of the ROM. Safety and security benefits When you flash the system ROM, ROMPaq writes over the backup ROM and saves the current ROM as a backup, enabling you to switch easily to the alternate ROM version if the new ROM becomes corrupted for any reason. This feature protects the existing ROM version, even if you experience a power failure while flashing the ROM. Keeping the system current Access to HP Support Materials Access to some updates for HP ProLiant Servers may require product entitlement when accessed through the HP Support Center support portal. HP recommends that you have an HP Passport set up with relevant entitlements. For more information, see the HP website (http://h20564.www2.hp.com/portal/site/hpsc/public/kb/docDisplay/?docId=c03859703). Drivers IMPORTANT: Always perform a backup before installing or updating device drivers. The server includes new hardware that may not have driver support on all OS installation media.
