of the server’s High Availability (HA), embedded server, and fault management. It also provides system administrators secure remote management capabilities regardless of server status or location. The iLO MP is available whenever the system is connected to a power source, even if the server main power switch is in the off position.
HP has used several different names over the years to describe the management functionality embedded in their servers, including “the management processor.” In addition, HP uses the term “management processor” to refer to any embedded microprocessor that manages a system. Management processor is a descriptive term (such as “server”), and iLO, is a brand name, or label (such as “Integrity”).
Remote access is the key to maximizing efficiency of administration and troubleshooting for enterprise servers. Integrity servers have been designed so all administrative functions that can be performed locally on the machine, can also be performed remotely. iLO enables remote access to the operating system console, control over the server’s power and hardware reset functionality, and works with the server to enable remote network booting through a variety of methods.
iLO 2 refers to an Integrated Lights Out 2 management processor (iLO 2 MP) with the latest advanced digital video redirection technology. This new feature gives you a higher performance graphics console redirection experience than with the previous iLO.
