SMASH CLP
Systems Management Architecture for Server Hardware Command Line
Protocol (SMASH CLP) is a command/response specification transmitted
and received over a text message-based transport protocol. It was
developed and released by DMTF (Distributed Management Task Force).
SMASH CLP addresses the end user requirement for a common command
line syntax, allowing systems offered by different vendors to be managed in
similar ways. Digi Passport supports SMASH CLP for iLO2 and DRAC5.
Instructions for configuring SMASH CLP are integrated into the sections for
iLO and DRAC.
Integrated Lights Out (iLO, iLO2)
Integrated Lights Out (iLO and iLO2) is an HP specification for the
equipment that monitors the physical environment and condition of a
computer hardware server. The specification is intended to cover the
regulation of temperature, voltage and power, and to ensure the proper
operation of the firmware.
iLO works with hardware servers regardless of the operating platform or
other software they may run. iLO allows an administrator to manage
multiple servers from a single location by means of a user-friendly
interface. Critical system events for each server can be logged. Settings for
each basic input/output system (BIOS) can be monitored or changed.
Servers can be remotely and independently powered on or off, rebooted,
or reset as necessary.
iLO2 adds advanced digital video redirection to the specification.
