SSTK log file
When the SSTK scripts run, SSTK records event messages and errors in a log file. Each time you
boot the target server, a new log file is created with the proper time stamp. SSTK creates a file
with the following name:
SystemName-SerialNumber-yyyymmdd-hhmmss.log
Where:
SystemName The system name.
SerialNumber The system serial number.
yyyymmdd The current date (yyyy = year, mm = month, and dd = day).
hhmmss The current time (hh = hour, mm = minute, and ss = second).
For example: server rx7640-USE46440SD-20080114153020.log.
Log file format
For each command executed by an SSTK script, the following entry is recorded in the log file:

NOTE: After WinPE boots, a temporary SSTK log file is created in the WinPE X:\sstktem.log
root folder. You can use this log file in case the remote share fails to mount.
Monitoring the Deployment
You can monitor the deployment remotely by connecting to the target server Integrated Lights-Out
(ILO) interface or to the HP Management Processor (MP), which enables you to see the server
