Guided Procedures

Introduction to Guided Procedures
Guided configuration, replacement, and troubleshooting procedures are software tools that help
you manage and maintain system components. Guided procedures automate some of the steps
in complex tasks and prompt you with detailed instructions to perform any required manual
steps. Guided procedures include error recovery information and online help systems with
detailed manual procedures.
Help available within each guided procedure is comprehensive and context-sensitive. Using this
help, the user can decide what options or practical steps can be taken, especially if a procedure
is not progressing as expected.
Guided Procedures in OSM Actions
Guided procedures are launched by OSM actions. Some guided procedures are automated
programs that interact with the system, while others consist entirely of documentation. These
OSM actions are displayed when you right-click a CRU or FRU in an OSM Service Connection
view and select Actions.
Guided procedures for FRUs must be used only by HP authorized service providers, as indicated
in the procedure or its online help.

disk, EMU, FC-AL I/O module, power supply), IOAM Enclosure, IOMF, LSU
and its FRUs (optics adapter, logic board) MSEB, PMF, P-Switch FRUs (ServerNet
switch board, p-switch chassis, ServerNet plug-in cards (PICs), p-switch power
supplies, p-switch fans), SAS disk enclosure and its FRUs (disk, fan, I/O module,
power supply, power supply and fan [CG only]) SEB, server blade [called a
Processor Blade in OSM] and its FRUs (DIMM [called a Memory Card in OSM],
processor, ServerNet interface mezzanine card, system board, front panel display
assembly, battery) ServerNet Switch Board, ServerNet switch, SNDA, S-series
Power Supply, Switch Component, VIO enclosure [called a VIO module in OSM]
and its FRUs (G4SA optical PIC, FCSA optical PIC, logic board.)On some
platforms, memory upgrade is supported in addition to or instead of memory
replacement.
