Ilom Interfaces; Important Notes Before You Begin; Management Network Diagram For Exalogic Machine - Oracle Exalogic Elastic Cloud Owner's Manual

Important Notes Before You Begin

ILOM, you can remotely manage your compute node as if you were using a locally
attached keyboard, monitor, and mouse.
ILOM automatically initializes as soon as power is applied to your compute node. It
provides a full-featured, browser-based web interface and has an equivalent
command-line interface (CLI).
The ILOM management interface is also integrated with Oracle Enterprise Manager
Ops Center. Oracle Enterprise Manager Ops Center can discover new and existing
systems on your network, update firmware and BIOS configurations, provision the
operating environment with off-the-shelf distributions, manage updates and
configuration changes, and remotely control key aspects of the service processor such
as boot control, power status, and indicator lights.
Exalogic compute nodes are configured at the time of manufacturing to use Sideband
Management. This configuration eliminates separate cables for the Service Processor
(SP) NET MGT port and the NET0 Port.

7.1.1 ILOM Interfaces

ILOM supports following interfaces for accessing its features and functions:
• The web interface provides an easy-to-use browser interface that enables you to log
in to the SP, then to perform system management and monitoring.
• The command-line interface enables you to operate ILOM using keyboard
commands and adheres to industry-standard DMTF-style CLI and scripting
protocols. ILOM supports SSH v2.0 and v3.0 for secure access to the CLI. Using
the CLI, you can reuse existing scripts with Sun systems, and automate tasks
using familiar interfaces.
7.2 Important Notes Before You Begin
You require at least one static IP address for Service Processor (ILOM access). For the
list of default ILOM IP addresses assigned to Exalogic machine hardware components
at the time of manufacturing, see
If you reconfigure these IP addresses during the initial configuration of the Exalogic
machine using Oracle Exalogic Configuration Utility and its associated
tools, you must use those IP addresses to access ILOM.
Note that as a general convention, root is used as the default user name.
