ML 570 Server Smart Start Disks

[Scott Guthrey]

We bought a new Compaq Proliant ML 570 server in 2000. We are attempting to load it with SCO OpenServer 5 but need to know what SmartStart software works with this server. The latest version we have is SmartStart 5.20. I'm not sure if this is the disk that came with that server. Does anyone know if it will work??

Hi Scott:

if this is ML570G1 then can only go to smartstart 5.50
can download the smartstar from this location:
http://h18004.www1.hp.com/support/files/server/us/subscription/ssdownloads.asp

-

If this is ML570G2 then you can use the smartstart 7.20 latest from HP;
and can be downloaded from this site.

Thanks for the response, the server doesn't indicate G1 or G2. The invoice and the model number on the server are simply ML 570. It looks like this:

Okay so it is G1 Server.
