You can depend on OpenVMS for uncompromising reliability, availability, scalability, and security.

Are you spending too much time and money on server updates?

Smart Update Manager (SUM) and the Service Pack for ProLiant (SPP) combine to create the Hewlett Packard Enterprise Smart Update Technology to solve the problem of time-consuming, expensive, and error-prone updates.

SUM is an innovative tool for keeping the firmware, drivers, and system software of HPE ProLiant, HPE Synergy, HPE BladeSystem and HPE Moonshot infrastructures and associated options up to date and secure.

SUM discovers the installed hardware and the current versions of firmware, drivers, and system software, provides an update recommendation, and
applies the updates in an efficient order to reduce impact on operations.

SUM provides a variety of interfaces for applying updates, so you can pick the interface that meets your needs. Update the servers while they are offline or online, locally or remotely via web browser, or interactively or automatically.

Do you require rapid access to shared data between multiple servers within a Linux® high-performance computing (HPC) cluster on a Storage Area Network (SAN)? The HPE Clustered Extents File System is designed to provide simultaneous, high speed shared access to data between clustered Linux servers connected to a SAN, where each server in the cluster has direct high-speed data channels to a shared set of disks. The servers share a single name-space within the cluster, so each server can see all files, and can access files at local to near-local speeds. HPE Clustered Extents File System can scale for bandwidth or I/O by adding additional storage or network connections and provide for high availability (HA) of data within a design that detects and automatically recovers from server or network failure.

HPE OneView for Microsoft Azure Log Analytics provides a bridge between Microsoft® cloud management services and Hewlett Packard Enterprise hardware infrastructure. It allows you to manage on-premises infrastructure with the same Microsoft tools used for cloud services. HPE OneView for Microsoft Azure Log Analytics brings visibility of the underlying Hewlett Packard Enterprise infrastructure, including hardware, firmware inventory, infrastructure health, status, long term event correlation, and trend analysis. Data is automatically collected from HPE OneView and HPE Synergy is processed using the Azure™ Log Analytics engine running in the Azure public cloud. Licensed as part of HPE OneView and HPE Synergy, HPE OneView for Microsoft Azure Log Analytics is highly extensible and customizable, allowing you to take advantage of cloud based management for your on-premises environment.

The Scripting Toolkit (STK) for Windows and Linux provide flexible scripting to automate steps in HPE ProLiant server configurations to scale high volumes of server deployments rapidly and cut deployment time substantially. The STK includes a modular set of utilities and documentation that describe how to apply the scripting tools for an automated deployment process.

It delivers hands-off, unattended installation for high volume HPE ProLiant server deployments and is integrated with other management tools such as Integrated Lights Out (iLO), BIOS and is based on Intelligent Provisioning. Its "Rack and Go" approach frees up scarce IT resources, delivers consistent server configurations across multiple servers, and integrates into popular methods for operating system deployment. Past versions were based on SmartStart, and were known as the SmartStart Scripting Toolkit.
