Software and configuration utilities 48
Survey Utility
Survey Utility, a feature within HP Insight Diagnostics (on page 47), gathers critical hardware and
software information on ProLiant server blades.
This utility supports operating systems that may not be supported by the server blade. For operating
systems supported by the server blade, refer to the HP website (http://www.hp.com/go/supportos
).
If a significant change occurs between data-gathering intervals, the Survey Utility marks the previous
information and overwrites the Survey text files to reflect the latest changes in the configuration.
Survey Utility is installed with every SmartStart-assisted installation or can be installed through the HP PSP
("ProLiant Support Packs" on page 49).
NOTE: SmartStart version 7.51 and later provides the memory spare part numbers for the server.
Integrated Management Log
The IML records hundreds of events and stores them in an easy-to-view form. The IML timestamps each
event with 1-minute granularity.
You can view recorded events in the IML in several ways, including the following:
From within HP SIM ("HP Systems Insight Manager" on page 45)

From within operating system-specific IML viewers
For NetWare: IML Viewer
