supplied to the HP Server as a boot image. The BIOS update executes

Example 2: A remote boot of HP DiagTools
In this example, the system administrator wants to boot to HP's DiagTools. To do
so the administrator obtains a copy of the DiagTools disk from the HP Netserver
Navigator CD Diskette Library, uses Copydisk to create a floppy image file, and
uses the HP Server Remote Management Card to remote boot the DiagTools disk
image.
To remotely boot DiagTools, the administrator would proceed as follows:
1. Insert the HP Netserver Navigator CD at the remote Windows client. The
Diskette Library program will auto-start.
2. Select HP DiagTools and follow the instructions to create the floppy in
drive A.
3. Using the Copydisk program, create a floppy boot image in the base
directory of your TFTP server. Use the following syntax:
copydisk a: x:\path\diagtool.dsk
where a: is the source diskette and x:\path is the destination TFTP base
directory on your hard drive.
4. Run tftpserv.exe. TFTP waits for a request for an image file from the HP
Server Remote Management Card.
5. Run the HP Server Remote Management Card web interface. Click the
Remote Control tab. Select the Reset and Remote boot options.
6. In the TFTP IP Address field, type the IP address of your client machine.
In the TFTP File Name field, type: diagtool.dsk.
7. Click "Start Power/Reset Option". The server restarts and TFTP loads the
image file onto the HP Server Remote Management Card where it is then
supplied to the HP Server as a boot image. The HP Server boots
DiagTools.
Example 3: A remote DOS file transfer to update a NetWare driver
In this example, the system administrator at a remote client running Windows 95
wants to reboot a remote HP Server running Novell NetWare in order to load a
new SCSI device driver (the old one is believed to be faulty). To do so, the
administrator obtains the latest copy of the driver from HP (AIC7870.dsk) and
copies it to a formatted DOS boot disk, uses copydisk to create a floppy image
file, and uses the HP Server Remote Management Card to remote boot the disk
