4.7.7 Preparing HP ProLiant DL385 G5p Nodes
On HP ProLiant DL385 G5p servers, use the following tools to configure the appropriate settings
for an HP XC system:
• Integrated Lights Out (iLO) Setup Utility
• ROM-Based Setup Utility (RBSU)
HP ProLiant DL385 G5p servers use the iLO utility; thus, they need certain settings that you
cannot make until the iLO has an IP address. The HP XC System Software Installation Guide provides
instructions for using a browser to connect to the iLO to enable telnet access.
Figure 4-19 shows a rear view of the HP ProLiant DL385 G5p server and the appropriate port
assignments for an HP XC system.
