Configuring iLO 2 41

Parameter

Default value Descriptions

Lights-Out
Functionality

Enabled

This setting enables connection to iLO 2. If disabled, all
connections to iLO 2 are prevented.
The iLO 2 10/100 network and communications with
operating system drivers are turned off if Lights-Out

functionality is disabled. The iLO 2 Diagnostic Port for an HP

ProLiant BL p Class server is also disabled.
If iLO 2 functionality is disabled (including the iLO 2

Diagnostic Port), you must use the server's Security Override
Switch to enable iLO 2. See your server documentation to

locate the Security Override Switch and set it to override.

Power up the server and use the iLO 2 RBSU to set Lights-Out

Functionality to Enabled.

Enabled

This setting enables or disables the iLO 2 ROM-Based Setup

Utility. Normally, the iLO2 Option ROM prompts you to press
F8 to enter RBSU, but if iLO 2 is disabled or iLO 2 RBSU is

disabled, the RBSU prompt is bypassed.
