with 1-minute granularity.
You can view recorded events in the IML in several ways, including the following:

• From within Survey Utility
• From within operating system-specific IML viewers
o For NetWare: IML Viewer (does not apply to HP ProLiant DL980 Servers)
o For Windows®: IML Viewer
o For Linux: IML Viewer Application
• From within the iLO 2 user interface
• From within HP Insight Diagnostics
For more information, see the Management CD or DVD in the HP Insight Foundation suite for ProLiant.
Array Diagnostic Utility
The HP Array Diagnostics Utility is a web-based application that creates a report of all HP storage controllers
and disk drives. This report provides vital information to assist in identifying faults or conditions that may
require attention. ADU can be accessed from the SmartStart CD or downloaded from the HP website
(http://www.hp.com).

ACU is a browser-based utility with the following features:
• Runs as a local application or remote service
• Supports online array capacity expansion, logical drive extension, assignment of online spares, and
RAID or stripe size migration
• Provides different operating modes, enabling faster configuration or greater control over the
configuration options
• Remains available any time that the server is on
• Displays on-screen tips for individual steps of a configuration procedure
