HPE iLO
The iLO 4 subsystem is a standard component of ProLiant servers that simplifies initial server setup,
server health monitoring, power and thermal optimization, and remote server administration. The iLO 4
subsystem includes an intelligent microprocessor, secure memory, and a dedicated network interface.
This design makes iLO 4 independent of the host server and its operating system.
iLO 4 enables and manages the Active Health System (on page
81 ) and also features Agentless
Management. All key internal subsystems are monitored by iLO 4. If enabled, SNMP alerts are sent
directly by iLO 4 regardless of the host operating system or even if no host operating system is installed.
Using iLO 4, you can do the following:
•
Access a high-performance and secure Integrated Remote Console to the server from anywhere in
the world if you have a network connection to the server.
•
Use the shared .NET Integrated Remote Console to collaborate with up to four server administrators.
•
Remotely mount high-performance Virtual Media devices to the server.
•
Securely and remotely control the power state of the managed server.
•
Implement true Agentless Management with SNMP alerts from iLO, regardless of the state of the
host server.
•
Download the Active Health System log.
•
Register for HPE remote support.
•
Use iLO Federation to manage multiple servers from one system running the iLO web interface.
•
Use Virtual Power and Virtual Media from the GUI, the CLI, or the iLO scripting toolkit for many tasks,
including the automation of deployment and provisioning.
•
Control iLO 4 by using a remote management tool.
For more information about iLO 4 features, see the iLO 4 documentation on the Hewlett Packard
Enterprise website ( http://www.hpe.com/info/ilo/docs ).
The iLO 4 hardware and firmware features and functionality, such as NAND size and embedded user
partition, vary depending on the server model. For a complete list of supported features and functionality,
see the iLO 4 QuickSpecs on the Hewlett Packard Enterprise website
( http://www.hpe.com/info/Quickspecs-iLO ).
