3. Power up the client PC in accordance with its own documentation.
NOTE: iLO may take up to 90 seconds to establish a secure network connection.
IMPORTANT: If tasks are to be performed on more than one ProLiant BL30p server blade,
power down the first server blade and remove it from the blade sleeve. Then, install the next
server blade in the left bay of the blade sleeve when the blade sleeve is laying on a flat
surface.

iLO Guidelines for Accessing the Server Blade

Use the following guidelines when you prepare to access the server blade with the
iLO Remote Console for the first time.
Two cabling methods are available to make the wiring connections from the client
PC to the iLO: the direct cabling method and the network cabling method.
NOTE: Refer to the setup and installation guide for the server blade you are using for
information on accessing the server blade with the iLO Remote Console.
NOTE: If using the RJ-45 connector on the Diagnostic Station to connect to iLO, the iLO
connector from the iLO interconnects is disabled.
IMPORTANT: Before removing the local I/O cable, completely log out of the current iLO
session. Do not remove the local I/O cable when the UID LED is blinking.
Direct Cabling Method
In this method, the client PC is connected to the iLO using the diagnostic port or the
I/O port on the front of the server blade. This is a direct, one-to-one connection using
the diagnostic cable or the local I/O cable from the client PC to iLO without any
hub/switch networking hardware. The iLO diagnostic port static IP address can be
found on the diagnostic cable and the I/O port static IP address can be found on the
local I/O cable.
