How to install SmartStart on FreeBSD 4.10

Joe Nam_1 — Tue, 15 Feb 2005 23:18:39 GMT

I have installed FreeBSD 4.10 on DL360 server and I would like to install SmartStart on it. Does the SmartStart support FreeBSD? If it does, how can I install it on the server.

Thx.

SmartStart is not installed on a server. SmartStart is a method to assist in server setup. If you have already installed the operating system, SmartStart has no bearing.

To the extent that FreeBSD is possibly compatible with Linux, it may be possible to install the HP drivers and agents using the custom install procedure for the ProLiant Support Pack for Linux. See http://www.hp.com/linux --> Platforms --> ProLiant --> Documentation --> "ProLiant Management Software for Linux" on page 27, "Custom Installs"

For information on other options, do a Google search on "proliant health freebsd"

Thanks for your reply. Basically, I would like to setup a network load balancing function on FreeBSD. It is because I m only using one lan port of the server, the other one is wasting. I want to use both of them to increase the bandwidth to provide mail service in our company. So, what software should I need? is there any documentation for reference?

Thx again..
