5.3 Adding servers that are already running an operating system
Servers currently running a production operating system can be added to IC server provisioning
without rebooting by adding the HP Server Automation (SA) agent to the target server, and then
registering the server’s iLO.
To add the HP Server Automation agent to a managed server:
1. Determine the SA agent filename from http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:8081 where
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is the Deployment IP address or DNS name of the IC server provisioning
