Requirements for iSCSI targeting
The x722 Network Adapter on the ProLiant e910 server blade requires specific BIOS settings before the storage volume
on the blade can be designated as an iSCSI target.
For a successful RHEL installation on an iSCSI bootable volume:
• Boot into the UEFI BIOS, and then configure the setting found at
BIOS/Platform Configuration (RBSU) > Network
Options > iSCSI Configuration for iSCSI Initiator. This setting enables support for iSCSI Boot Firmware Table (iBFT).
• Use the most recent Anaconda RHEL installer to add the storage volume as an iSCSI target.
For detailed information about using the Anaconda installer and iBFT restrictions, see
documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/7/html/installation_guide/appe-iscsi-disks.
Connecting iLO to the network
Connect iLO to the network through a production network or a dedicated management network.
iLO uses standard Ethernet cabling, which includes CAT 5 UTP with RJ-45 connectors. Straight-through cabling is
necessary for a hardware link to a standard Ethernet hub or switch.
For more information about setting up your hardware, see the server user guide.
iLO setup with the iLO 5 Configuration Utility
Hewlett Packard Enterprise recommends using the iLO 5 Configuration Utility to set up iLO for the first time and to
configure iLO network parameters for environments that do not use DHCP, DNS, or WINS.
Configuring a static IP address (iLO 5 Configuration Utility)
This step is required only if you want to use a static IP address. When you use dynamic IP addressing, the DHCP server
automatically assigns an IP address for iLO.
To simplify installation, Hewlett Packard Enterprise recommends using DNS or DHCP with iLO.
Procedure
1.
(Optional) If you access the server remotely, start an iLO remote console session.
2.
Restart or power on the server.
3.
Press
F9 in the server POST screen.
The UEFI System Utilities start.
4.
Click
System Configuration.
5.
Click
iLO 5 Configuration Utility.
