Installing the HP Service Pack Proliant (SPP) Package on Proliant Servers
from IP 1.10 Software
The HP SPP package includes individual Management software smart components and firmware
smart components. This package is available only on web for download. The Management software
smart components include the following products:
• Agentless Management — Agentless management is the default Management software option
installed on Gen8 servers from HP SPP. This component collects information from the operating
system and provides data to the iLO. AMS is supported on both Windows Server® 2008 x86
and x64 OS.
• HP Insight Management WBEM Providers — HP Insight Management WBEM providers deliver
in-depth hardware management, inventory data, system state, and event notifications for
ProLiant and Integrity servers. WBEM Providers are based on the Distributed Management
Task Force’s (DMTF) Web-based Enterprise Management standard for managing server
hardware, operating systems and applications. HP SIM and SMH WBEM clients use these
providers to gather data on Windows Server® 2008 x64 and x86 OS.
• HP Insight Management Agents — HP Insight Management Agents are SNMP agents that
obtain information on the status of various server subsystems and display this information at
the System Management Home Page (SMH). The SNMP agents are installed by default on
G7 and earlier servers. This component provides management agents for Windows Server
2008 x64 and x86 OS on HP Integrity servers. HP SIM and SMH WBEM clients use HP Insight
Management Agent to gather data. For more information about the features supported by the
Insight Management Agents (IMA), see the Insight Management Agents User Guide available
