iLO RESTful API support for UEFI
The ProLiant Gen9 servers include support for a UEFI compliant System BIOS, along with UEFI System
Utilities and Embedded UEFI Shell pre-boot environments. ProLiant Gen9 servers 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
