G Group Actions with HP Toptools
Integration with HP Toptools Device Manager
The HP Server Remote Management Card fully integrates with the Toptools
Device Manager product (version 5.0 and above). Access to your HP Server
Remote Management Card may be done via accessing a server page of a server
that has the HP Server Remote Management Card installed, or through the Others
list under Devices|Device Types.
Group actions:
If you use the HP Server Remote Management Card in a server
managed by HP Toptools Device Manager, you can perform “group actions” on
multiple HP Server Remote Management Cards by selecting all the cards you
want with your mouse and right-clicking. Group actions include adding and
deleting users, changing user passwords, viewing user configurations, replicating
card configurations, powering on and off the server, and updating card firmware.
Selecting the Correct Remote Management Cards
In HP Toptools, the “Device type” for the HP Server Remote Management Card
is “Management device, remote control card.”
CAUTION
The HP Server Remote Management Cards used in the
tc3100and tc4100 HP Servers are not the same as the Remote
Management Cards used in other HP Servers.

Management Cards. To select a group of the cards for tc3100 and tc4100 Servers,
you must search for Remote Management Cards with the correct model number
