HP iLO
The iLO 4 subsystem is a standard component of HP ProLiant servers that simplifies initial server setup, server
health monitoring, power and thermal optimization, and remote server administration. The iLO 4 subsystem
includes an intelligent microprocessor, secure memory, and a dedicated network interface. This design
makes iLO 4 independent of the host server and its operating system.
iLO 4 enables and manages the Active Health System (on page 84) and also features Agentless
Management. All key internal subsystems are monitored by iLO 4. If enabled, SNMP alerts are sent directly
by iLO 4 regardless of the host operating system or even if no host operating system is installed.
Embedded remote support software is available on HP ProLiant Gen8 and later servers with iLO 4, regardless
of the operating system software and without installing OS agents on the server.
Using iLO 4, you can do the following:
•
Access a high-performance and secure Integrated Remote Console to the server from anywhere in the
world if you have a network connection to the server.
•
Use the shared .NET Integrated Remote Console to collaborate with up to four server administrators.
•
Remotely mount high-performance Virtual Media devices to the server.
•
Securely and remotely control the power state of the managed server.
•
Implement true Agentless Management with SNMP alerts from HP iLO, regardless of the state of the host
server.
•
Download the Active Health System log.
•
Register for HP Insight Remote Support.
•
Use iLO Federation to manage multiple servers from one system running the iLO web interface.
•
Use Virtual Power and Virtual Media from the GUI, the CLI, or the iLO scripting toolkit for many tasks,
including the automation of deployment and provisioning.
•
Control iLO by using a remote management tool.
For more information about iLO 4 features, see the iLO 4 documentation on the HP website
(http://www.hp.com/go/ilo/docs).
The HP iLO 4 hardware and firmware features and functionality, such as NAND size and embedded user
partition, vary depending on the server model. For a complete list of supported features and functionality, see
the HP iLO 4 QuickSpecs on the HP website
(http://h18000.www1.hp.com/products/quickspecs/14276_div/14276_div.pdf).
