Executive summary This document specifies the design of an HP Bl adeSystem c-Class server blade that serves as a Microsoft® Windows® infras truc ture server for provisioning line -of-business applicat ions such as web servers, mail servers, database servers and other mission-critical applications.
Figure 1. HP StorageWorks SB40c storage blade Purpose of the provisioning server blade The main purpose of the provisioning ser ver bl ade is to provide the following service(s): • Installation and .
What is automated provisioning / RDP? Automated provisioning So what exactly is the automated provisioning of software and hardware? It means little or no human intervention. In other words, the process of installation or deployment is laid out fo r administrators in the form of images, scripts, or batch files.
RDP and its underlying techn ologies Understanding the technologies behind RDP is necessary for proper implementation of HP server blade deployment. These include: DHCP, PXE, Bootworks, and AClient.
PXE “PXE is defined on a foundation of industry-standar d Internet protocols and services that are widely deployed in the industry, namely TCP/ IP, DHCP, and TFTP. T hese standardize the form of the interactions between client s and serv ers. . . In brief, the PXE protocol operates as follows.
HP BladeSystem requirements for hosting the server blade Figure 4. HP BladeSystem c7000 enclosure, rear view Deployment Whether a small, medium, or large corporate netw ork infrastructure, HP BladeSystem provides a faster, simpler, and lower cost way to build and conf igure in an IT infrastructure.
administrator can take full, remote control of the enclosure and quickly complete the configu ration. The c-Class blades are now ready for the operating system deployment from the RDP server.
Cooling fans (Rear side) HP Active Co ol fan technology provides superior airflow, power and acoustic performance and is hot- pluggable for easy upgrades. From 4 up to 10 fans, must be installed in a specific order of fan bay locations per how many server blades are installed in the enclosure.

Initial deployment of provisioning server blade Before you begin con figuring the enclosure and blade, it is helpful to reiterate some assumptions made earlier. This provision ing server will act as the DHCP Server, the PXE Server, and the HP RDP Provisioning Server.
Figure 11. First Time Setup Wizard Once the enclosure is con figured, insert the c-Clas s blade in the slot and wait for the OA to recognize it. Insert your operating system CD into the laptop or desktop CD/DVD ROM drive. The server blade will use the laptop/desktop CD/DVD drive as its vi rtual media device to boot from.
Configuring the initial server blade Before you install HP ProLiant Essentials RDP 3.1 or later on the initial c-Class blade, be sure you have the following core requirem ents installed: • DHCP configured with IP Scope activated • Microsoft .NET Framewor k 1.
The server will reboot once all the core pre-insta llation requirements are installed. Upon rebooting, accept the default File server path and insert the appropriate license file. On the Deployment Server Information window, install the Deployment Server on the local machine (c-Class in itial server blade).
Install the Deployment Database on the local ma chine with eXpress as the default database name. Select the Windows NT Authentication. Keep the default location s for installing the Pre-boot Operating System files for the WinPE x8 6 and x64.
Usage scenarios for the blade provisioning ser ver The three basic IT scenarios hosted on this server blade are: 1. Mass deployment of HP ProLiant BL c-Class serv ers wi thin an organization that is looking for automation in order to reduce errors and reduce the amount of time to deploy servers.
