Never remove power from a server with a flashing Unit ID LED.ProLiant BL p-Class Advanced managementiLO 2 Advanced is a standard component of ProLiant BL p-Class server blades that provides server healthand remote server blade manageability. Its features are accessed from a network client device using asupported Web browser. In addition to other features, iLO 2 Advanced provides keyboard, mouse, andvideo (text and graphics) capability for a server blade, regardless of the state of the host operating systemor host server blade.iLO 2 includes an intelligent microprocessor, secure memory, and a dedicated network interface. Thisdesign makes iLO 2 independent of the host server blade and its operating system. iLO 2 provides remoteaccess to any authorized network client, sends alerts, and provides other server blade managementfunctions.Using a supported Web browser, you can:• Remotely access the console of the host server blade, including all text mode and graphics modescreens with full keyboard and mouse controls.• Remotely power up, power down, or reboot the host server blade.• Remotely boot a host server blade to a virtual diskette image to perform a ROM upgrade or installan operating system.• Send alerts from iLO 2 Advanced regardless of the state of the host server blade.• Access advanced troubleshooting features provided by iLO 2 Advanced.• Launch a Web browser, use SNMP alerting, and diagnose the server blade using <strong>HP</strong> Systems InsightManager.• Configure static IP bay settings for the dedicated iLO 2 management NICs on each server blade inan enclosure for faster deployment.The server blade must be properly cabled for iLO 2 connectivity. Connect to the server blade with one ofthe following methods:• Through an existing network (in the rack)—This method requires you to install the server blade in itsenclosure and assign it an IP address manually or using DHCP.• Through the server blade I/O port• In the rack—This method requires you to connect the local I/O cable to the I/O port and a clientPC. Using the static IP address listed on the I/O cable label and the initial access information onthe front of the server blade, you can access the server blade with the iLO 2 Advanced RemoteConsole.• <strong>Out</strong> of the rack, with the diagnostic station—This method requires you to power the server bladewith the optional diagnostic station and connect to an external computer using the static IPaddress and the local I/O cable. For cabling instructions, refer to the documentation that shipswith the diagnostic station or to the Documentation CD.• Through the server blade rear panel connectors (out of the rack, with the diagnostic station)—Thismethod enables you to configure a server blade out of the rack by powering the blade with thediagnostic station and connecting to an existing network through a hub. The IP address isassigned by a DHCP server on a network.The BL p-Class tab enables you to control specific settings for the ProLiant BL p-Class blade server rack.iLO 2 also provides Web-based status for the ProLiant BL p-Class server rack.Using iLO 2 92
