Optional: AMS is installed on the server and the server operating system is running.
HP recommends installing AMS. For more information, see the HP iLO 4 User Guide.
AMS is installed automatically if you use the Intelligent Provisioning Recommended
installation method.
AMS is one way in which iLO can obtain the name of the server. If iLO cannot obtain
the server name, the displayed server name in Insight Online and Insight RS is derived
from the server serial number. If you do not install AMS, do one of the following to ensure
that the server name is displayed correctly in Insight Online and Insight RS:
◦
For Windows systems only, start the operating system. Insight Online and Insight RS
will use the Windows computer name to identify the server.
◦
Configure the Server Name on the Administration
→Access Settings page in the iLO
web interface.
The server name is displayed in HP Insight RS and HP Insight Online, and can be viewed
by HP support and your authorized service provider, reseller/distributor, and installer.
To protect your privacy, do not use sensitive information in the name of the HP ProLiant
Gen8 server.
•
The HP ProLiant iLO 3/4 Channel Interface Driver is installed.

Using HP iLO Federation Management with Intelligent Provisioning
The HP iLO Federation Management feature allows you to manage multiple servers at one time.
iLO Federation Management provides a cloud-based management system for any HP server
environment requiring scale-able and efficient server management. iLO Federation Management
lets you unify the system management of thousands of servers, regardless of location, from one
system running the iLO web UI (iLO 4 1.40 and later) for any HP ProLiant Gen8 server in an HP
iLO Federation Management group.
To use Intelligent Provisioning in combination with iLO Federation Management, you first configure
iLO Federation Management in iLO 4. See the HP iLO 4 User Guide for instructions.
