The basic steps necessary to use the SmartStart Scripting Toolkit are:
1. Generate the server profile from a previously configured server.
2. Create a script (batch) file that reads in server configuration files to configure the
server hardware and install the server operating system
3. Build the server configuration diskette that initiates the automated deployment
process.
For details, download the latest version of the SmartStart Scripting Toolkit from
www.hp.com/servers/sstoolkit
