HP Insight Online direct connect
When you use the embedded Remote Support functionality with HP ProLiant Gen8 and later server models
and HP BladeSystem c-Class enclosures, you can register a server or enclosure to communicate directly to HP
Insight Online without the need to set up an HP Insight Remote Support centralized Hosting Device in your
local environment. HP Insight Online will be your primary interface for remote support information.
For more information, see the product documentation on the HP website
(http://www.hp.com/go/insightremotesupport/docs).
HP Insight Online
HP Insight Online is a capability of the HP Support Center portal. Combined with HP Insight Remote Support
central connect or HP Insight Online direct connect, it automatically aggregates device health, asset, and
support information with contract and warranty information, and then secures it in a single, personalized
dashboard that is viewable from anywhere at any time. The dashboard organizes your IT and service data
to help you understand and respond to that information more quickly. With specific authorization from you,
an authorized HP Channel Partner can also view your IT environment remotely using HP Insight Online.
For more information about using HP Insight Online, see the HP Insight Online User’s Guide on the HP
website (http://www.hp.com/go/insightremotesupport/docs).
HP Insight Diagnostics
HP Insight Diagnostics is a proactive server management tool that provides diagnostics and troubleshooting
capabilities to assist IT administrators who verify server installations, troubleshoot problems, and perform
repair validation.
HP Insight Diagnostics Online Edition is a web-based application that captures system configuration and
other related data needed for effective server management. Available in Microsoft Windows and Linux
versions, the utility helps to ensure proper system operation.
For more information or to download the utility, see the HP website (http://www.hp.com/servers/diags). HP
Insight Diagnostics Online Edition is also available in the SPP ("HP Service Pack for ProLiant" on page 46).
HP Insight Diagnostics survey functionality
HP Insight Diagnostics (on page 45) provides survey functionality that gathers critical hardware and software
information on ProLiant servers.
This functionality supports operating systems that are supported by the server. For operating systems
supported by the server, see the HP website (http://www.hp.com/go/supportos).
If a significant change occurs between data-gathering intervals, the survey function marks the previous
information and overwrites the survey data files to reflect the latest changes in the configuration.
Survey functionality can be installed through the SPP ("HP Service Pack for ProLiant" on page 46).
