On the remote client machine open Internet Explorer and enter https:// and the serial number of the storage server followed by a hyphen (-), and then:3202. For example, https://D4059ABC3433-:3202 Press Enter.
Using the Remote desktop method To connect the storage server to a network using the remote desktop method 1. On the PC client, select Start > Run. At Open, type mstsc, then click OK. 2. Enter the serial number of the storage server followed by a hyphen (-) in the Computer box and click Connect. For example: D4059ABC3433-. NOTE: If you are able to determine the IP address from your DHCP server, you can substitute the IP address for the serial number and hyphen (-). For example: 192.100.0.1. 3.
To quickly setup iLO 2 using the default settings for iLO 2 Standard and iLO 2 Advanced features, follow the steps below. 1. Ensure that a network cable is connected to the iLO 2 port (1) located on the back of the storage server. 1 gl0085 Figure 8 iLO 2 connector port NOTE: This connection method is easiest when the connection is to a DHCP and DNS supported network. 2.
NOTE: When the Remote Console feature is enabled, you can get access to the storage server’s login screen. For more information, see the HP Integrated Lights-Out 2 User Guide on the HP ProLiant DL380 G5 Data Protection Storage Server Documentation CD.
