HPE iLO

The iLO subsystem is a standard component of ProLiant servers that simplifies initial graphics server
blade setup, server health monitoring, power and thermal optimization, and remote server
administration. The iLO subsystem includes an intelligent microprocessor, secure memory, and a
dedicated network interface. This design makes iLO independent of the host server and its operating
system.
iLO enables and manages the Active Health System (on page 74) and also features Agentless
Management. All key internal subsystems are monitored by iLO. If enabled, SNMP alerts are sent
directly by iLO regardless of the host operating system or even if no host operating system is installed.
Embedded remote support software is available on HPE ProLiant Gen8 and later servers with iLO 4,
regardless of the operating system software and without installing OS agents on the server.
Using iLO, 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 graphics server blade.
•
Securely and remotely control the power state of the managed graphics server blade.
•
Implement true Agentless Management with SNMP alerts from iLO, regardless of the state of the
host server.
•
Download the Active Health System log.
•
Register for 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 features, see the iLO documentation on the Hewlett Packard Enterprise
website (http://www.hpe.com/info/ilo/docs).
The iLO 4 hardware and firmware features and functionality, such as NAND size and embedded user
partition, vary depending on the graphics server blade model. For a complete list of supported features
and functionality, see the iLO 4 QuickSpecs on the Hewlett Packard Enterprise website
(http://www.hpe.com/info/Quickspecs-iLO).
