RILOE II board
The server comes with iLO remote management capability embedded on the system board. The 30-pin
remote management connector for the RILOE II board is provided to reduce external cabling. The 30-pin
connector provides power, keyboard, mouse, and other peripheral signals directly to the system board;
therefore, the external AC power adapter and keyboard/mouse loopback cable are not needed for
normal operations.
The RILOE II board provides remote server manageability for ProLiant servers. It can be accessed from a
network client using a standard web browser and it provides a keyboard, mouse, and video capability
for a host server, regardless of the state of the host OS or host server. The RILOE II board features include
a faster processor for increased performance, new user interface for easier browsing, integration with
LDAP, Virtual Floppy, and Virtual CD for increased server manageability.
A built-in processor, memory, NIC, ROM, and standard external power supply make the RILOE II board
independent of the host server and its OS. This design allows the RILOE II board to provide remote access
to any authorized network client, to send alerts, and to perform other management functions.
For information about iLO technology, refer to "Integrated Lights-Out Technology (on page 89 )."
IMPORTANT: Install the RILOE II board into slot 3 or 4 for ease of cabling.
