Using the RPMs I listed does not affect the initrd (because you're not installing any drivers).

Paul,

Thanks for the feedback, will installing list below generate new initrd and we 
have to use HP provided initrd (i recall it would add a grub entry for this) or 
can we install the components and still use redhats initrd with redhat default 
modules?

Regards
ilya

Subject: Re: [rhelv5-list] RHEL 4, 5, 6 and deployment of HP PSP

We deploy the PSP by simply installing the RPMs:

hp-ilo
hponcfg
hpacucli
hp-health
hpdiags
hp-snmp-agents
hpsmh
hp-smh-templates

This gets the :2381 interface up and running, and lets us monitor for
disk, memory, power supply, RAID, etc. failures using SNMP traps or
syslog.  It also installs the RAID config utility (hpacucli), the ILO
confiuration tool (hponcfg) and the HP-health utility (hpasmcli).

HP themselves (quietly) note that the drivers included in the PSP are
often unnecessary; that Red Hat absorbs these driver updates almost as
fast as HP releases them, so usually the driver provided with RHEL is as
good or better than the one provided by HP.

Dear list members,

We are in process of evaluating HP PSP, in past we would deny the
deployment of PSP for various reasons (mostly vendor support, stability
and security).

I would like to see your feedback on what services/packages you deploy
on your production environment for HP PSP and what issues have you
experienced
(i.e during OS upgrade, system packages, etc). Real world feedback
counts the most and your feedback is appreciated,

Thanks
