HP Insight Remote Support software
HP Insight Remote Support software delivers secure remote support for your HP Servers and Storage, 24 X
7, so you can spend less time solving problems and more time focused on your business. You can have
your systems remotely monitored for hardware failure using secure technology that has been proven at
thousands of companies around the world. In many cases, you can avoid problems before they occur.
There are two HP Insight Remote Support solutions:
For small and midsize environments: HP Insight Remote Support Standard provides basic remote
monitoring, notification/advisories and service dispatch. It is optimized for environments with 1 to
50 servers and can be installed on a shared HP ProLiant Windows application server. The software
supports HP EVA storage devices, HP ProLiant, BladeSystems, HP Integrity and HP 9000 servers
running Microsoft Windows, Red Hat Enterprise Linux, Novell SUSE and Novell Netware. Download

For midsize and large environments: HP Insight Remote Support Pack (formerly Service Essentials
Remote Support Pack) is targeted for larger environments and is integrated with HP Systems Insight
Manager (SIM). It provides comprehensive remote monitoring, notification/advisories, dispatch and
proactive service support for nearly all HP servers, storage, network and SAN environments, plus
selected Dell and IBM Windows servers that have a support obligation with HP. It also enables HP to
deliver higher levels of proactive support in line with HP Mission Critical Services support
agreements. Download from the HP website

HP Insight Server Migration software for ProLiant
The HP Insight Server Migration software for ProLiant (SMP) enables administrators to upgrade or replace
an existing server blade through server migration. SMP provides an automated, accurate, and affordable
method of migrating existing server blades and their content to the latest server technologies.
SMP automates the migration of the operating system, applications, and data from one server blade to
another without errors, eliminating the need for manual redeployment of these elements on the new server
blade. During the migration process, the software automatically loads new drivers, required for boot, on
the destination server blade. The wizard-based user interface simplifies the migration process and requires
little experience or training.
For more information about the SMP, see the HP website (http://www.hp.com/go/migrate
).
