iLO RBSU
HP recommends iLO RBSU to initially set up iLO and initially configure iLO network parameters for environments that do not use DHCP and DNS or WINS. RBSU provides the basic tools to configure iLO network settings and user accounts to get iLO onto the network.
iLO RBSU is designed to assist you with setting up iLO on a network. iLO is not intended for continued administration. RBSU is available every time the server is booted and can be run remotely using the iLO Remote Console. You can use RBSU to configure network parameters, directory settings, global settings, and user accounts.
iLO RBSU can be disabled in the Global Settings preferences. Disabling iLO RBSU prevents reconfiguration from the host unless the iLO Security Override Switch is set.
To run iLO RBSU:
1.Restart or power up the server.
2.Press the F8 key when prompted during POST. The iLO RBSU runs.
3.If prompted, enter a valid iLO user ID and password with the appropriate iLO privileges (Administer User Accounts>Configure iLO Settings). Default account information is located on the iLO Default Network Settings tag attached to the server containing the iLO management processor. If iLO has not been configured to present a login challenge to the RBSU. No prompt will appear.
4.Make and save any necessary changes to the iLO configuration.
5.Exit iLO RBSU.
HP recommends using DNS or DHCP with iLO to simplify installation. If DNS/DHCP cannot be used, use the following procedure to disable DNS and DHCP and configure the IP address and the subnet mask:
1.Restart or power up the server.
2.Press the F8 key when prompted during POST. The iLO RBSU runs.
