To add iLO 2 to HP SIM, do one of the following:

Click Save and Run. After the discovery process is complete, additional queries display the
device as a management processor.

You may need to edit the SNMP read community string (for example, by changing it to
"public") so that iLO 2 is displayed in the list of monitored systems. You can change the

SNMP read community string by accessing the Systems Protocol Settings page. To access

these settings, select Options>Protocol Settings>System Protocol Settings.

Click Options>Protocol Settings>Global Protocol Settings, and set community strings for use

during discovery under Default SNMP Settings. When set, you can use steps a through e to

run discovery process.

For major events not cleared, iLO 2 traps are displayed in All Events. Click Event Type to obtain
further information about the event.

NOTE:

HP Insight Agents for iLO 2 must be installed on the remote host server to enable

management of iLO 2. Refer to "Installing iLO 2 Device Drivers" for additional details about
installing and configuring agents.

HP SIM port matching

HP SIM is configured to start an HTTP session to check for iLO 2 at port 80. The port can be changed. If

you want to change the port number, you must also change it in Network Settings and HP SIM.
To change the port number in HP SIM, add the port to the config\identification\additionalWsDisc.props
file in the directory where HP SIM is installed. The entry must start with the HTTP port for iLO 2. No entry

needs to be in this file for iLO 2 if it remains at the standard Port 80. It is very important that the entry is

on a single line and the port number is first, with all other items identical to the following example

(including capitalization).
The following example shows what the entry is if iLO 2 is to be discovered at port 55000 (this should all

be on one line in the file):

55000=iLO

Reviewing Advanced Pack license information in HP

SIM

HP SIM displays the license status of the iLO 2 management processors. You can use this information to
determine how many and which iLO 2 devices are licensed for the iLO Advanced Pack.
To view license information, click Deploy>License Manager>Manage Keys. To be sure the data is current,

run the identify systems task for your management processors. Refer to the HP SIM documentation for

additional details about initiating tasks.
