AMS is one way in which iLO can obtain the server name. If iLO cannot obtain the server name, the displayed server name in Insight Online and Insight RS is derived from the server serial number. If you do not install AMS, do one of the following to ensure that the server name is displayed correctly in Insight Online and Insight RS:

For Windows systems only, start the operating system. Insight Online and Insight RS will use the Windows computer name to identify the server.

Configure the Server Name on the AdministrationAccess Settings page in the iLO web interface.

The server name is displayed in Insight Online and Insight RS, and can be viewed by HP Support and your authorized service provider, reseller/distributor, and installer. To protect your privacy, do not use sensitive information in the name of an HP ProLiant server.

The HP ProLiant iLO 3/4 Channel Interface Driver is installed.

This driver is installed automatically if you use the Intelligent Provisioning Recommended installation method.

For more information, see the HP iLO 4 User Guide.

11.Optional: If you want to receive email alerts about system events, configure AlertMail on the AdministrationManagementAlertMail page in iLO.

For more information, see the HP iLO 4 User Guide.
