Intelligent Provisioning
Intelligent Provisioning is a single-server deployment tool embedded in ProLiant servers, Apollo systems, and
HPE Synergy compute modules. Intelligent Provisioning simplifies server setup, providing a reliable and
consistent way to deploy servers.
Intelligent Provisioning prepares the system for installing original, licensed vendor media and Hewlett Packard
Enterprise-branded versions of OS software. Intelligent Provisioning also prepares the system to integrate
optimized server support software from the Service Pack for ProLiant (SPP). SPP is a comprehensive
systems software and firmware solution for ProLiant servers, server blades, their enclosures, and HPE
Synergy compute modules. These components are preloaded with a basic set of firmware and OS
components that are installed along with Intelligent Provisioning.
After the server is running, you can update the firmware to install additional components. You can also update
any components that have been outdated since the server was manufactured.
Intelligent Provisioning operation
Intelligent Provisioning includes the following components:
• Critical boot drivers
• Active Health System (AHS)
• Erase Utility
• Deployment Settings
IMPORTANT:
• Although your server is pre-loaded with firmware and drivers, you should update the firmware upon
initial setup to ensure you have the latest versions. Also, downloading and updating the latest
version of Intelligent Provisioning ensures the latest supported features are available.
• For ProLiant servers, firmware is updated using the Intelligent Provisioning Firmware Update utility.
• For HPE Synergy compute modules, firmware is updated using HPE OneView.
• Do not update firmware if the version you are currently running is required for compatibility.
NOTE:
Intelligent Provisioning does not function within multihomed configurations. A multihomed host is one
that is connected to two or more networks or has two or more IP addresses.
Intelligent Provisioning provides installation help for the following operating systems:
• Microsoft Windows Server
• Red Hat Enterprise Linux
• SUSE Linux Enterprise Server
• VMware ESXi/vSphere Custom Image
Not all versions of an OS are supported. For information about specific versions of a supported operating
system, see the OS Support Matrix on the Hewlett Packard Enterprise website (
).
