3. Enter the following information in the iLO Hostname Settings section:
•
iLO Subsystem Name (Host Name)—The DNS name of the iLO subsystem (for example,
ilo
instead of ilo.example.com). This name can be used only if DHCP and DNS
are configured to connect to the iLO subsystem name instead of the IP address.
iLO subsystem-name limitations follow:
◦ Name service limitations—The subsystem name is used as part of the DNS name.
DNS allows alphanumeric characters and hyphens. –
– Name service limitations also apply to the Domain Name.
◦
Namespace issues—To avoid these issues:
– Do not use the underscore character.
– Limit subsystem names to 15 characters.
– Verify that you can ping iLO by IP address and by DNS/WINS name.
– Verify that NSLOOKUP resolves the iLO network address correctly and that no
namespace conflicts exist.
– If you are using both DNS and WINS, verify that they resolve the iLO network
address correctly.
– Flush the DNS name if you make any namespace changes.
•
Domain Name—The iLO domain name. If DHCP is not used, enter a domain name.
