Auto-configuration of IP address using Domain Name Services (DNS)/Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) for HPE ProLiant | HPE iLO for ProLiant provides automatic network configuration A default name and DHCP client that leases an IP address from the DHCP server on the network are standard with HPE iLO for ProLiant This allows the management processor to register its device name with DNS and Windows Internet Naming Service (WINS) For systems that do not use DNS/DHCP, static IP configuration is also supported
|
Automated group administration and actions for HPE ProLiant | HPE iLO for ProLiant group administration automates configuring and managing large deployments of iLO processors Using iLO's extensive scripting language with HPE Lights-Out configuration utility, the HPE Lights-Out online configuration utility or RESTful interface tool, an administrator can easily configure all settings for mass deployments, control all functions and activate the HPE iLO for ProLiant advanced license keys simultaneously on multiple HPE ProLiant iLO processors - With a batch process or HPE SIM's powerful device query mechanism, these utilities enable scalable use and management of HPE ProLiant iLO's
|
Because the HPE iLO for ProLiant management processor obtains its power from the auxiliary power plane of the server, it is always ON when the server is plugged into a power source If the server provides Redundant Power Supplies (RPS) then the HPE iLO for ProLiant will use redundant power and will continue operation in the event of a power supply failure
|
The iLO has been designed to provide feedback during the POST process as a blade system does not include a directly attached monitor The iLO blinks the server health LED during the boot process to enable the onsite administrator the results of the POST process
|
On supported server models, the HPE iLO for ProLiant management processor monitors fans, temperature sensors, power supply sensors and VRMs without having the system management driver loaded Down to the bone future boogie rare. The status of these is accessible from all HPE iLO for ProLiant user interfaces (Browser, SMASH command line Redfish API, XML scripts and IPMI) Independent of the host Operating System (OS) The intelligence of iLO manages the Sea of Sensors thermal control, directs the dynamic power capping technology and monitors the health of server components
|
Using any of the HPE iLO for ProLiant interfaces, users can configure, update and control all HPE iLO for ProLiant standard functions regardless of the state of the host server or OS: |
HPE iLO for ProLiant provides a choice between two network connection methods to access all functionality: |
Flexible setup options for HPE ProLiant | An onboard ROM-based configuration utility allows fast and easy setup without additional software. HPE iLO for ProLiant can also be setup VIA the browser or command line interface over the network Integration with Smart Start scripting toolkit allows configuration of the card as part of the initial server deployment For large deployments, the HPE Lights-Out configuration utility or the iLO REST tool can be used to configure groups of HPE iLO for ProLiant processors, saving time and resources
|
iLO access options and services control (iLO 5 and above only) | Ability to turn enable/disable iLO access options and services |
Storage space earmarked in the iLO which can be used as a repository for firmware, drivers and software components The components can be organized in to install sets and can be used to rollback/Patch faulty firmware
|
Ability to put harden iLO for specific security requirements |
The iLO Service port is a USB port connected to the iLO and is located on the front panel of the server Users can connect their laptops to this port VIA a USB-Ethernet adapter (HPE recommends using the HPE part Q7Y55A) and get the full access to the Integrate remote console Users can also connect a USB drive to this port and download service logs to it How to use Arduino Board. The 14 digital input/output pins can be used as input or output pins by using pinMode, digitalRead and digitalWrite functions in arduino programming. Each pin operate at 5V and can provide or receive a maximum of 40mA current, and has an internal pull-up resistor of 20-50 KOhms which are disconnected by default. Use Serial.print to Display Arduino output on your computer monitor: Part 1 In many cases while using an Arduino, you will want to see the data being generated by the Arduino. One common method of doing this is using the Serial.print function from the Serial library to display information to your computer’s monitor. Arduino serial output pin. As long as you don't use the Serial library, pin 0 and 1 as just line other pins. If the usb chip is not disabled as CrossRoads wrote, it has an output on pin 0 (Arduino RX input). I prefer to keep pin 0 and 1 for the Serial library for the serial monitor. You can use the 4 datalines of the display for other things. Serial communication on pins TX/RX uses TTL logic levels (5V or 3.3V depending on the board). Don’t connect these pins directly to an RS232 serial port; they operate at +/- 12V and can damage your Arduino board.

Signatures for validation of integrity of iLO and UEFI/BIOS are built into the iLO ASIC. This prevents any possibility of tampering of security signatures throughout the supply-chain |
HPE Agentless management 2.0:The base hardware monitoring and alerting capability is built into the system (Running on the HPE iLO chipset) and starts working the moment that a power cord and an Ethernet cable is connected to the server. This means that: All core management is out-of-band for increased security and stability: no OS software required, no open SNMP port on the OS and zero downtime updates Monitor and alerting on key internal server components: CPUs, memory, temperatures, fans, Smart Array controllers, hard drives (Including cache modules) and power supplies HPE SIM can see the system and will give users preview of the system health summary and sub-system details iLO integrates with HPE OneView
|
HPE Active health system is an essential component of the HPE iLO management It provides users with: Diagnostics tools/scanners wrapped into one; always on, continuous monitoring for increased stability and shorter downtimes; Rich configuration history; health and service alerts; Easy export and upload to service and support
|
Enables user to read the active health system log files. It will provide errors messages and advises on a resolution. Use can create a support file, simply by uploading users AHS log file from within this tool |
