HP Insight Diagnostics provides a comprehensive suite of offline system and component tests,
providing in-depth testing of critical hardware components for devices such as processors, memory,
and hard drives. During offline testing, the user-installed OS is not running. Therefore, software
information from the system is not reported. Insight Diagnostics (Offline Edition) runs when the
computer is started with one of the following products:
• Intelligent Provisioning on HP ProLiant servers
• HP Service Pack for ProLiant (SPP)
Insight Diagnostics simplifies the process of effectively identifying, diagnosing, and isolating
hardware issues. System availability is maintained through the following key features:
• Surveying the current configuration, with various levels and categories
• Testing and diagnosing apparent hardware failures
• Documenting system configurations for upgrade planning, standardization, inventory tracking,
disaster recovery, and maintenance
• Sending configuration information to another location for more in-depth analysis
• Managing the Integrated Management Log (IML)
In addition to system management tools, service tools can resolve system problems quickly. To
streamline the service process and resolve problems quickly, you must have the right information
available at the time that a service call is placed. This combination of features simplifies the service
process and minimizes downtime.
Clicking Exit Diagnostics exits the Insight Diagnostics application and returns to Intelligent
Provisioning. Insight Diagnostics is also available online as a web-based application. For more
information, see the HP Insight Diagnostics User Guide on the HP website (http://www.hp.com/
go/intelligentprovisioning/docs).
Quick Configs
Use this feature to set a power management policy through Intelligent Provisioning without having
to configure individual settings through the RBSU or UEFI System Utilities.
NOTE: Quick Configs is disabled for RBSU password-protected systems.
