Testing the connection between HP iLO and the HP ESKM

HP iLO connects and manages key exchanges between the controller and HP ESKM. If you suspect HP iLO has lost its connection to the HP ESKM, you can test the connection in HP iLO.

To test the connection between HP iLO and the HP ESKM:

1.Log into HP iLO using your server's credentials.

2.From the left side panel, expand the Administration menu and then click Key Manager.
