Open Services Event Manager  
OSEM is a standalone tool that performs real-time reactive and proactive service event filtering, 
analysis, and notification. The tool gathers event data from SNMP traps or information provided over 
an HTTP interface and notifies an administrator or HP through SMTP and ISEE.

Phoenix SecureCore BIOS software 
Your ProLiant server uses BIOS to boot up the system. The Phoenix SecureCore BIOS software is a 
ROM BIOS-based firmware that allows reliability, manageability, and connectivity for server 
platforms. This software contains a set of programs permanently stored in an EEPROM chipset located 
on the system board. These programs assist in managing, initializing, and testing the hardware 
devices installed on the computer. 
The Phoenix SecureCore software serves three functions:  
 
Configure the system from the Phoenix SecureCore Setup Utility 
Using the Setup program, you can install, configure, and optimize the hardware devices on your 
system (clock, memory, disk drives, etc.). In addition, you can enable various features such as 
serial console redirection, PXE boot, and much more. 
 
Initialize hardware at boot using POST routines 
During power-on or warm reset, the software performs Power-On Self-Test (POST) routines to test 
components, to allocate resource for various hardware devices, and to prepare the system to 
boot to various operating systems. 
 
Perform run-time routines 
Using the software, perform basic hardware routines that can be called from DOS and Windows 
applications. 
Configuring the system BIOS   
 
 
NOTE:
 For ease of reading, Phoenix SecureCore Setup Utility will be simply referred to as “Setup” 
or “Setup Utility” in this guide. Also, the screenshots used in this guide display various Setup menu 
screens with the default values identified. These values may not be the same as those in your server. 
Phoenix SecureCore Setup Utility is a hardware configuration program built into your system's Basic 
Input/Output System (BIOS). Since most systems are already properly configured and optimized, 
there is normally no need to run this utility.  
You will need to run this utility under the following conditions:  
 
When changing the system configuration including:  
 
Setting the system time and date 
 
Configuring the hard drives 
 
Specifying the boot device sequence
