When users connect to the virtual iLO Remote Console IP Address, they must log in using the
standard telnet or ssh system authentication. After authenticating, they receive immediate access
to the guest console:
# ssh -l guest1admin 16.92.81.68
Password:
vMP MAIN MENU
CO: Console
CM: Command Menu
CL: Console Log
SL: Show Event Logs
VM: Virtual Machine Menu
HE: Main Help Menu
X: Exit Connection
[guest1] vMP>
The username used to access and log into the virtual iLO Remote Console must have Guest
Administrator/Operator privileges. The following example creates a guest administrator name
guest1admin for the guest guest1. The hpvmmodify -u option is used to grant the guest
administrator privilege:
# useradd -d /var/opt/hpvm/guests/guest1 -c 'guest1 console' guest1admin
# passwd guest1admin
# hpvmmodify -P guest1 -u guest1admin:admin
# hpvmmodify –P pqsvm53 –K xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx –L xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
# telnet xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

When a guest is migrated to another VSP using Online VM Migration (OVMM), the Integrity VM
virtual iLO virtual iLO Remote Console is also migrated to the new VSP. Before migration, the virtual
iLO Remote Console process is running on only the source VSP. After migration, the virtual iLO
Remote Console process is stopped on the source VSP. Any client that was connected to that virtual
iLO Remote Console is disconnected. A new virtual iLO Remote Console process is started on the
target VSP. New client connections to the virtual iLO Remote Console IP address are now sent to
the virtual iLO Remote Console process on the new VSP.
11.7.2 Integrity VM virtual iLO Remote Console limitations
The virtual iLO Remote Console feature has four limitations:
• The telnet method of connecting is not supported for the virtual iLO Remote Console by default,
only Secure Shell.
To add telnet support for virtual iLO Remote Console, you must install two additional HP-UX
enhancement patches, one for telnetd and one for the login (/usr/bin/login) command. If you
try to telnet to the virtual iLO Remote Console without these patches, an error message is sent
to the telnet client, and the connection is closed.
Install the following patches on the VSP:
◦ PHCO_41595
◦ PHNE_41452
• The virtual iLO Remote Console's SSH server host keys can change.
When an SSH client connects to an SSH server, the client downloads the server's host keys
and keeps a local copy (usually in a file such as ~/.ssh/known_hosts). On subsequent
