Hi All,
Can you help me?
We provide an IT-enterprise environment, where, there are many servers and thousands of end-users to support.
Our system is is built on HP Server Hardware & Windows 2000 and 2003 Server and Advanced Server Operating Systems.
No firmware and the device drivers on our HP infrastructure had been updated or uprated since first install.
However, we have applied the latest service packs to the Windows OS's mentioned above.
In troubleshooting problems, I have noticed on Hp.Com, that if you are a Windows 200x Server user and have a Proliant DL server, you may suffer/see a particular issue, for example, with a disc, array controller, cpu or nic.
Now, my question is, do you think HP and MS work jointly? As it is in the best interests of each undertaking, to make sure their products work in harmony and are defect-free.
As MS makes a service pack available to users, it would have eg., HP patches incorporated with it as well as OEM Hardware patches. Are OS's mentioned above intelligent and aware they are running on HP hardware, in this instance, and therefore find and fix any known problems as it has the solution installed in a file?
What are your views on this?
It would be nice if someone from HP or MS could post a comment to this thread.
All constructive comments appreciated.
Cheers,
Spanish Waiter
