Viewing affected systems

This section provides the following details about the servers that will be affected by changes you
make on the Group Virtual Media page.

Server Name—The server name defined by the host operating system.

Server Power—The server power state (ON or OFF).

UID Indicator—The state of the UID. The UID helps you identify and locate a system, especially
in high-density rack environments. The possible states are UID ON, UID OFF, and UID BLINK.

iLO Hostname—The fully qualified network name assigned to the iLO subsystem. Click the iLO
link to open the iLO web interface for the server.

IP Address—The network IP address of the iLO subsystem. Click the iLO link to open the iLO
web interface for the server.

Using the Integrated Remote Console

The iLO Integrated Remote Console is a graphical remote console that turns a supported browser
into a virtual desktop, allowing full control over the display, keyboard, and mouse of the host
server. Using the Remote Console also provides access to the remote file system and network drives.

With Integrated Remote Console access, you can observe POST boot messages as the remote host
server restarts, and initiate ROM-based setup routines to configure the remote host server hardware.
When you are installing operating systems remotely, the Integrated Remote Console (if licensed)
enables you to view and control the host server monitor throughout the installation process.

iLO provides the following Integrated Remote Console access options:

.NET IRC—Provides access to the system KVM, allowing control of Virtual Power and Virtual
Media from a single console through a supported browser on a Windows client. In addition
to the standard features, the .NET IRC supports Console Capture, Shared Console, Virtual
Folder, and Scripted Media.

Java IRC—Provides access to the system KVM, allowing control of Virtual Power and Virtual
Media from a Java-based console. In addition to the standard features, the Java IRC includes
the iLO disk image tool and Scripted Media.

Standalone IRC (HPLOCONS)—Provides full iLO Integrated Remote Console functionality directly
from your Windows desktop, without going through the iLO web interface. HPLOCONS has
the same functionality and requirements as the .NET IRC application that is launched from the
iLO web interface. Download HPLOCONS from the HP website:
