Installing & Running the Offline HP Array Configuration Utility 
--------------------------------------------------------------

Burn/write the ISO image to the desired media (CD/DVD/USB Key).  Insert the media
into the server and boot the server.  Verify that your system can boot from the
desired media. 

A menu with the three boot options (ACU, ACUCLI, HPACUSCRIPTING) is shown.  
The user can manually select which utility to start; or if no selection is made, 
ACU is automatically started.

This image is a bootable environment that immediately starts ACU to allow
configuration of storage.

This ISO image can also be mounted as a CD image through ILO2.  It is highly
recommended that your server have the latest BIOS firmware and latest ILO2 
firmware installed.

This utility provides the following boot options:
   *   The web based Array Configuration Utility (ACU)
   *   The command line Array Configuration Utility (ACUCLI)
   *   The command line Array Configuration Scripting Utility (HPACUSCRIPTING)
