SmartStart CD for DL380 G5

Is it posisble to download a SmartStart CD for the Proliant DL380 G5 without warranty or service contract?  I can see individual downloads but would prefer the automated installation process.  I need to reisntall Windows Server 2008 R2, therefore reinstlal all the proliant drivers.

This is the last smartstart from 2011:

Thank you Torsten for the reply.  Does this mean the smartstart CD might not be the best way to reinstall a Proliant?  If it's not been updated since 2011, is there another method?

Without a contrct you cannot download SPP.

But you can use the old smartstart for install, then use newer drivers from the website.


Hope this helps!
