Server Configuration and Utilities
Integrated Lights-Out Technology
Integrated Lights-Out is a standard component of selected ProLiant servers that
provides server health and remote server manageability. The iLO subsystem includes
an intelligent microprocessor, secure memory, and a dedicated network interface.
This design makes iLO independent of the host server and its operating system. The
iLO subsystem provides remote access to any authorized network client, sends alerts,
and provides other server management functions.
Using iLO, you can:
•
•
•
•
Remotely power up, power down, or reboot the host server
Send alerts from iLO regardless of the state of the host server
Access advanced troubleshooting features through the iLO interface
Diagnose iLO using HP SIM through a Web browser and SNMP alerting
For more information about iLO features, refer to the Integrated Lights-Out User
Guide on the Documentation CD or on the HP website:

iLO ROM-Based Setup Utility
HP recommends using iLO RBSU to configure and set up iLO. iLO RBSU is
designed to assist you with setting up iLO on a network; it is not intended for
continued administration.
To run iLO RBSU:
1. Restart or power up the server.
2. Press the F8 key when prompted during POST. The iLO RBSU runs.
3. Enter a valid iLO user ID and password with the appropriate iLO privileges
(Administer User Accounts, Configure iLO Settings). Default account
information is located on the iLO Default Network Settings tag.
4. Make and save any necessary changes to the iLO configuration.
