With HP iLO Advanced and LO100i Advanced Packs, you can diagnose
server problems no matter where you are. You can manage and control your
HP servers, regardless of:

The server state (on, off, booting up, or no operating system)
Your server expert's location (the office, at home, or on the road)
HP iLO comes installed on every ProLiant ML and DL 300/500/700 series
