Using the Integrated Lights-Out 2 method

Integrated Lights-Out 2 (iLO 2) is HP's fourth generation of Lights-Out management technology that
allows you to perform virtually any system administrator or maintenance task remotely as if you were
using its keyboard; mouse; monitor; power button; and floppy, CD or USB key, whether or not the
server is operating. It is available in two forms, iLO 2 Standard and iLO 2 Advanced. iLO 2 Standard
provides basic system board management functions, diagnostics and essential Lights-Out functionality
on supported ProLiant servers. iLO 2 Advanced provides advanced remote administration functionality
as a licensed option, which is included with the ProLiant Storage Server.

The Integrated Lights-Out port on the storage server can be configured through the Rapid Startup
Wizard or through the iLO 2 ROM-Based Setup Utility (RBSU). SNMP is enabled and the Insight
Management Agents are preinstalled.

The HP iLO 2 management processor provides multiple ways to configure, update, operate, and
manage servers remotely. The HP ProLiant Storage Server comes preconfigured with iLO 2 default
factory settings including a default user account and password. These settings can be found on the
iLO 2 Default Network Settings tag on the front of the server. If iLO 2 is connected to a network
running DNS and DHCP, you can use it immediately without changing any settings.

For more information on using HP iLO 2, see the HP Integrated Lights-Out 2 User Guide.

To quickly set up iLO 2 using the default settings for iLO 2 Standard and iLO 2 Advanced features on
DL380 G5, and DL585 G2 Storage Servers, follow these steps:

1.

Ensure that a network cable is connected to the iLO 2 port located on the back of the storage
server.

NOTE:

This connection method is easiest when the connection is to a DHCP and DNS supported
network.

2.

If you are not using dynamic DHCP (IP addressing), you will need to input a static IP address by
using the direct attach method and the iLO 2 RBSU.
