4.7.4Preparing HP ProLiant DL365 Nodes

On HP ProLiant DL365 servers, use the following tools to configure the appropriate settings for an HP XC system:

•Integrated Lights Out (iLO) Setup Utility

•ROM-Based Setup Utility (RBSU)

HP ProLiant DL365 servers use the iLO utility; thus, they need certain settings that you cannot make until the iLO has an IP address. The HP XC System Software Installation Guide provides instructions for using a browser to connect to the iLO to enable telnet access.

Figure 4-15shows a rear view of the HP ProLiant DL365 server and the appropriate port assignments for an HP XC system.
