    55Mindi has a script able to store the Hardware configuration and those parameters may be restored before launching mondorestore during the boot phase computed by mindi, in order to re-setup the machine as the original one.

    7 For the moment, only HP Proliant systems are supported. If you have tools to allow support for other type of machines, feel free to contribute patches to that script.

    9 If you have a Proliant system you first need to get the Smart Start Scripting Toolkit. Due to licenses issues, mindi cannot provide those tools itself. You need to get them from http://www.hp.com/servers/sstoolkit
    10 
    11 Mindi expects to find those tools under /usr/local/bin as described in the deplist.d/proliant.conf configuration file. Here are the steps to set it up correctly:

    14 wget ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softlib2/software1/pubsw-linux/p308169895/v40154/ss-scripting-toolkit-linux-1.70.tar.gz
    15 wget ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softlib2/software1/pubsw-linux/p308169895/v43548/ss-scripting-toolkit-linux-1.81.tar.gz

    19 mkdir ssstk
    20 cd ssstk
    21 tar xvfz ../ss-scripting-toolkit-linux-1.90.tar.gz
    22 cp -a utilities/hponcfg /usr/local/bin
    23 cp -a utilities/conrep /usr/local/bin
    24 cp -a utilities/conrep.xml /usr/local/bin
    25 # For versions <= 1.90
    26 cp -a utilities/cpqacuxe/cpqacuxe /usr/local/bin
    27 cp -a utilities/cpqacuxe/bld /usr/local/bin
    28 mv /usr/local/bin/bld/*.so /usr/local/lib
    29 # For recent versions
    30 cp -a utilities/hpacucli /usr/local/bin
    31 echo /usr/local/lib >> /etc/ld.so.conf
    32 ldconfig
    33 
    34 You're now ready to check your configuration by running:
    35 mindi-bkphw /var/cache/mindi /etc/mindi
    36 [First parameter is the directory where files will be generated,
    37  Second parameter is the directory of the file proliant.files is located]
    38 
    39 For these tools to work you may have to install additional packages such as hpasm and hprsm from the HP Web site, as well as some libstdc++ compatibility packages (compat-libstdc++-33 and compat-libstdc++-296 on RHEL 5 e.g.)
    40 
    41 In order to have a working hponcfg binary you also need to install the hprsm/hpasm packages from HP Web site. Refer to http://welcome.hp.com/country/us/en/support.html?pageDisplay=drivers
