the alert at the SNMP console. You can also generate this alert using the iLO 2 Option ROM
to verify SNMP configuration settings.
• ALERT_SERVER_POWER – Occurs when the iLO 2 management processor detects an
unexpected transition of the host system power, either from ON to OFF, or OFF to ON.

of events unknown to the management processor. This alert is not generated when the system
is powered up or down using the iLO 2 interface, CLI, RIBCL or other management feature. If
the server is powered down because of the operating system, physical power button presses,
or other methods, the alert is generated and sent.
• ALERT_SERVER_RESET – Occurs when the iLO 2 management processor is used to perform
