For more information on managing the directory service, See "Directory-enabled remote management (on page 103)." Examples are available in the "Directory services for Active Directory (on page 83)" and "Directory services for eDirectory (on page 92)" sections.

5.Handle exceptions:

•Lights-Out migration utilities are easier to use with a single Lights-Out role. If you plan to create multiple roles in the directory, you might need to use directory scripting utilities, such as LDIFDE or VB script, to create complex role associations. See the "Using bulk import tools (on page 108)" for more information.

•If you have RILOE II or RILOE processors with old firmware, you might need to manually update the firmware using a browser. Minimum firmware requirements for remote firmware update using RIBCL and directory migration utility as follows:

LOM product

Minimum supported firmware

 

 

RILOE

2.41

 

 

RILOE II

All versions

 

 

iLO

1.10

 

 

iLO 2

1.00

 

 

After the schema has been extended, you can complete the directory services setup by using HP Lights-Out Directories Migration Utilities (on page 113). The migration utilities are included in the HP Lights-Out Directory Package. Version 1.13 of the Directories Migration Utility allows Lights-Out import and export and supports different user credentials for each Lights-Out processor.

Directory services support

Using HP schema directory integration, RILOE II supports the following directory services:

•Microsoft® Active Directory

•Microsoft® Windows® Server 2003 Active Directory

•Novell eDirectory 8.7.3

•Novell eDirectory 8.7.1

RILOE II software is designed to run within the Microsoft® Active Directory Users and Computers and Novell ConsoleOne management tools, enabling you to manage user accounts on Microsoft® Active Directory or Novell eDirectory. This solution makes no distinction between eDirectory running on NetWare, Linux, or Windows®. Spawning an eDirectory schema extension requires Java™ 1.4.0 or later for SSL authentication.

RILOE II supports Microsoft® Active Directory running on one of the following operating systems:

•Windows® 2000 family

•Windows® Server 2003 family

RILOE II supports eDirectory running on one of the following operating systems:

•NetWare 5.X

•NetWare 6.X

•Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS 2.1

Schema required software

RILOE II requires specific software, which will extend the schema and provide snap-ins to manage the RILOE II network. An HP Smart Component is available for download that contains the schema installer and the management snap-in installer. The HP Smart Component can be downloaded from the HP website (http://www.hp.com/servers/lights-out).
