IMPORTANT:
The secondary UUID and other system variables are stored on the Monarch blade. If you do
not put the Monarch blade in the leftmost slot, your system variables will not match. If you ever
change your iLO 3 configuration (such as adding users) that data is also stored on the Monarch
blade.
NOTE:
Auxiliary blades are not slot dependent after being installed and configured, however when the
conjoined systems ship, they come with A, B, C, D stickers located under the Blade Links.
While auxiliary blades are not slot dependent after being installed and configured, Hewlett
Packard Enterprise recommends using the shipped order to ensure proper auxiliary blade
function.
15. Still in the iLO 3 Command Menu, power on the Monarch blade with the PC -on -nc command.
Powering on the Monarch blade will power the entire conjoined system on.
16. Boot the Monarch blade. Booting the Monarch blade boots the entire conjoined system.

Using iLO 3

The iLO 3 subsystem is a standard component of selected server blades that monitors blade health and
provides remote server manageability. The iLO 3 subsystem includes an intelligent microprocessor,
secure memory, and a dedicated network interface. This design makes iLO 3 independent of the host
server and operating system. The iLO 3 subsystem provides remote access to any authorized network
client, sends alerts, and provides other server management functions.
Using iLO 3, you can:
Remotely power on, power off, or reboot the host server.
Subscribe to we-man alerts from iLO 3 regardless of the state of the host server.
Access advanced troubleshooting features through the iLO 3 interface.
Access Remote Console and vMedia functionality.
For more information about iLO 3 basic features, see the iLO 3 documentation on the Hewlett Packard
Enterprise website (http://www.hpe.com/support/Integrated_Lights-Out3_Manuals).
