HP ROM Configuration Utility (HPRCU) NOTE: This utility is available for HP ProLiant Gen8 servers, except for the HP ProLiant DL580 Gen8 server. For more information, see the HP Scripting Toolkit User Guide for your operating system environment on the HP website (http://www.hp.com/go/stk/docs). Using HPRCU HPRCU is an RBSU configuration utility similar to CONREP. This utility is supported on all HP ProLiant Gen8 servers except the HP ProLiant DL580 Gen8 server. This utility does not use a definition XML file like the CONREP utility, but directly reads the same table that RBSU uses for feature names and settings. All features and options are number based. Each feature and option has a unique number. Using HPRCU has the following features: • All system ROM settings and the current selections are listed together in one output/input XML file. • No updated binary or XML file is needed when BIOS adds or changes features. HPRCU now reads the same tables that RBSU does, which are located in the memory at system boot. When the BIOS changes or adds a new setting, no update to HPRCU is needed. • The HPRCU XML file shows the default settings for each RBSU option. • HPRCU is not supported on UEFI-based ProLiant servers. Instead, use CONREP.

Using HPRCU
HPRCU is an RBSU configuration utility similar to CONREP. This utility is supported on all HP
ProLiant Gen8 servers except the HP ProLiant DL580 Gen8 server. This utility does not use a
definition XML file like the CONREP utility, but directly reads the same table that RBSU uses for
feature names and settings. All features and options are number based. Each feature and option
has a unique number.
Using HPRCU has the following features:
•
All system ROM settings and the current selections are listed together in one output/input XML
file.
•
No updated binary or XML file is needed when BIOS adds or changes features. HPRCU now
reads the same tables that RBSU does, which are located in the memory at system boot. When
the BIOS changes or adds a new setting, no update to HPRCU is needed.
•
The HPRCU XML file shows the default settings for each RBSU option.
•
HPRCU is not supported on UEFI-based ProLiant servers. Instead, use CONREP.
