HP BladeSystem c-Class Advanced management
iLO 2 is a standard component of ProLiant c-Class server blades that provides server health and remote server
blade manageability. Its features are accessed from a network client device using a supported web browser.
In addition to other features, iLO 2 provides keyboard, mouse, and video (text and graphics) capability for
a server blade, regardless of the state of the host OS or host server blade.
iLO 2 includes an intelligent microprocessor, secure memory, and a dedicated network interface. This design
makes iLO 2 independent of the host server blade and its OS. iLO 2 provides remote access to any
authorized network client, sends alerts, and provides other server blade management functions.
Using a supported web browser, you can:
• Remotely access the console of the host server blade, including all text mode and graphics mode
screens with full keyboard and mouse controls.
• Remotely power up, power down, or reboot the host server blade.
• Remotely boot a host server blade to a virtual media image to perform a ROM upgrade or install an OS.
• Send alerts from iLO 2 regardless of the state of the host server blade.
• Access advanced troubleshooting features provided by iLO 2.
• Launch a web browser, use SNMP alerting, and diagnose the server blade with HP SIM.
• Configure static IP bay settings for the dedicated iLO 2 management NICs on each server blade in an
enclosure for faster deployment.
To connect to the server blade using iLO 2, install the server blade in an enclosure. Onboard Administrator
assigns an IP address to enable iLO 2 connectivity to the server blade.
