iLO RESTful API support for UEFI
The servers include support for a UEFI-compliant System BIOS, along with UEFI System Utilities and
Embedded UEFI Shell preboot environments.
S
ervers also support configuring the UEFI BIOS settings
using the iLO RESTful API, a management interface that server management tools can use to perform
configuration, inventory, and monitoring of a ProLiant server. The iLO RESTful API uses basic HTTPS
operations (GET, PUT, POST, DELETE, and PATCH) to submit or return JSON-formatted data with iLO
web server.
For more information about the iLO RESTful API and the RESTful Interface Tool, see the Hewlett Packard
Enterprise website (
