MP Main Menu

After logging in to the iLO 2 MP, the MP Main Menu appears. The MP Main Menu runs as a private session. Other iLO 2 MP users do not see the actions you perform in the private session.

The iLO 2 MP can support multiple sessions to perform independent tasks:

Multiple windows logged into the iLO 2 MP to monitor VFP or study event logs in one window while administering the server from another window.

Resetting a server from one window and monitoring the boot from another window while interacting with the console from a third window.

Table 6-2lists the MP Main Menu commands.
