Configuring and Deploying Server Blades For more information about iLO, refer to the "Integrated Lights-Out Management" section in this chapter, or refer to the Compaq Integrated Lights-Out User Guide that ships with the system. Integrated Lights-Out Management The advanced version of Compaq Integrated Lights-Out is a standard component of selected Compaq ProLiant server blades. Integrated Lights-Out (iLO) provides server health and remote server blade manageability. Integrated Lights-Out features are accessed from a network client PC using a supported Web browser. In addition to other features, iLO provides keyboard, mouse, and video (text and graphics) capability for a server blade, regardless of the state of the host operating system or host server blade. The iLO subsystem includes an intelligent microprocessor, secure memory, and a dedicated network interface. This design makes iLO independent of the host server blade and its operating system. Integrated Lights-Out 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 floppy image to perform a ROM upgrade or to install an operating system. • Send alerts from iLO regardless of the state of the host server blade. • Access advanced troubleshooting features provided by iLO. • Launch a Web browser, use Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) alerting, and diagnose iLO using Compaq Insight Manager 7. For more information about iLO features, refer to the Compaq Integrated Lights-Out User Guide that ships with the system. Compaq ProLiant BL20p Server Blade Setup and Installation Guide 3-11
