• Using the System Utilities options described in the following sections.
• Using the iLO RESTful API to clear and restore certificates. For more information, see the Hewlett
Packard Enterprise website (http://www.hpe.com/info/redfish).
• Using the secboot command in the Embedded UEFI Shell to display Secure Boot databases, keys,
and security reports.
Launching the Embedded UEFI Shell
Use the Embedded UEFI Shell option to launch the Embedded UEFI Shell. The Embedded UEFI Shell is
a preboot command-line environment for scripting and running UEFI applications, including UEFI boot
loaders. The Shell also provides CLI-based commands you can use to obtain system information, and to
configure and update the system BIOS.
Prerequisites
Embedded UEFI Shell is set to Enabled.
Procedure
1. From the System Utilities screen, select Embedded Applications > Embedded UEFI Shell.
The Embedded UEFI Shell screen appears.
2. Press any key to acknowledge that you are physically present.
This step ensures that certain features, such as disabling Secure Boot or managing the Secure Boot
certificates using third-party UEFI tools, are not restricted.
3. If an administrator password is set, enter it at the prompt and press Enter.
The Shell> prompt appears.
4. Enter the commands required to complete your task.
5. Enter the exit command to exit the Shell.
HPE Smart Storage Administrator
HPE SSA is the main tool for configuring arrays on HPE Smart Array SR controllers. It exists in three
interface formats: the HPE SSA GUI, the HPE SSA CLI, and HPE SSA Scripting. All formats provide
support for configuration tasks. Some of the advanced tasks are available in only one format.
The diagnostic features in HPE SSA are also available in the standalone software HPE Smart Storage
Administrator Diagnostics Utility CLI.
During the initial provisioning of the server or compute module, an array is required to be configured
before the operating system can be installed. You can configure the array using SSA.
HPE SSA is accessible both offline (either through HPE Intelligent Provisioning or as a standalone
bootable ISO image) and online:
• Accessing HPE SSA in the offline environment
IMPORTANT: If you are updating an existing server in an offline environment, obtain the latest
version of HPE SSA through Service Pack for ProLiant before performing configuration
procedures.
