HP Integrated Lights-OutData sheetIn todays environment, where IT organizations have severely limited IT resources, onsite server management can be a major challenge. Executing tasks like server setup, health monitoring, power and thermal control can be tedious, time consuming, and expensive. But what if you could execute these tasks from any location, from anywhere in the world, with just a Web browser? The HP Integrated Lights-Out (iLO) management processor ships standard with every ProLiant server.1 Out of the box, iLO simplifies server setup, provides access to server health information, helps optimize server power and thermal control, and enables basic remote administration functions. While HP iLO ships with standard features enabled, you can unlock the iLO feature set with iLO Advanced. The application of an HP iLO Advanced license key gives you instant access to the virtual KVM console, multi-user collaboration, console record and replay, and 24-hour power measurement and single server Dynamic Power Capping. Now, with iLO 3, you can have up to six server administrators globally collaborating via remote console (up to 4 with iLO 2).

Key features and benefitsSimplified server setup

iLO virtual media, used in conjunction with ROM-based setup, SmartStart, or the SmartStart Scripting toolkit makes it possible for you to configure server boot order, network configuration, RAID settings, and other server parameters as well as deploy your server operating system (OS) in minutes. This enables server administrators to setup servers in remote locations without onsite staff, while reducing travel expenses and time out of the office.Embedded server health

Most management systems require operating system agents to troubleshoot hardware problems. By leveraging HP Integrated Lights-Out embedded health, system administrators gain deep insight into server component status when the operating system is offline or distressed. With HP ProLiant G6 and G7 servers, HP delivers support for viewing configuration and status of temperature sensors, fans, and power supplies, and configuration data for CPU and memory subsystems.Dynamic Power Capping and thermal control

Today more than ever, IT organizations are concerned with the cost of powering and cooling their x86 servers. The power and thermal controls exposed through iLO allow you to reduce server power Starting with the DL385 G7 server, servers carrying consumption by regulating processor clock speed and the G7 brand will feature a new generation of iLO, by providing an optional high-efficiency mode for HP Integrated Lights-Out 3. iLO 3 delivers turbo-charged power supplies. This combination of power regulation performance with remote console operation800% and power supply high-efficiency mode can help your faster than iLO 2 and virtual media that speeds 360% organization save as much as 18 percent in power faster than iLO 2. This means that everyday maintenance consumption. IT and facilities teams also need to make and deployment of servers in remote locations can take sure that they are making efficient use of existing place in a fraction of the time required with previous power and cooling capacity. With iLOs Dynamic generations of iLO. iLO 3 also supports Integrated Power Capping capabilities, IT and facilities staff Platform Management Interface (IPMI) and Data can set an upper limit on power consumption and Centre Management Interface (DCMI) standards and reclaim trapped power and cooling capacity created delivers high-performance hardware-based Advanced by overly conservative power budgeting policies. If Encryption Standard (AES) encryption. your company uses faceplate to budget server power needs, you can as much as triple the capacity of your 1 iLO ships on all ProLiant 300, 500, and 700 series server, all SL300 data center.
