Proliant 5000 - Download Array Config Software - Where from????

Jim Coote — Sat, 21 Feb 2004 03:29:06 GMT

I have a Proliant 5000, but I need help as to where I can download the SMART-2/P array configuration software so that I can configure the drive arrays on boot. This system has no O/S installed. I have downloaded the system configuration (SP19619), but I cannot find the download for the array configuration. I have smartstart 6.4 but this is not compatable with the 5000.
Any advise would be very much appriciated.

Hello Jim,
To set up your array properly you definitely need a Smart Start CD and in your case you would require 5.50 version which can be ordered by calling 1-800-573-1099 if you are in North America. Please make sure that you specify that you need 5.50 version.

Regards,

If all you are asking is to downlaod the ACU, you can download the Array Configuration Utility and the ACU User Guide from the HP website, but you need the OS for that.
