Note – The factory has configured the service processor hardware and firmware on your server with the most common settings used in the field. You may not need to change these defaults.

Refer to the Embedded Lights Out Manager (ELOM) Administration Guide for detailed information.

Integrated LOM Service Processor Software Overview

Integrated Lights Out Manager (ILOM) is system management firmware that is preinstalled on some Sun server platforms.

Note – If your system is running ELOM firmware, and you want to update to ILOM firmware, refer to the ELOM-to-ILOM Migration User’s Guide for information.

ILOM enables you to actively manage and monitor components installed in your server system. With ILOM, you can monitor and manage your system proactively by viewing hardware configurations, monitoring system information, managing system alerts, and more.

ILOM provides a browser-based web interface and a command-line interface, as well as an SNMP user interface and an IPMI user interface. ILOM automatically initializes as soon as power is applied to your system. ILOM will continue to run regardless of the state of the host operating system, making it a “lights-out” management system.

Some key features of ILOM include:

Runs on its own processor and resources

Allows for management of the server without consuming system resources

Continues to provide management using standby power even when the server is powered-off

Provides an isolated management network separate from the data network

Provides a concise view of hardware inventory and environmentals

Provides the ability to control power, manage components, and access the host console

Serves as an integration point for other management tools, such as Sun N1 System Manager and third-party applications

Enables the download of service processor (SP) firmware and BIOS changes
