Known problem: Collecting an HP iLO license:

One of the steps in the checklist is to collect the HP iLO license. The following are known issues
with this step:

You must be able to ping the HP iLO function from the CMS using only the system name (not
the fully qualified domain name).

The Systems Insight Manager License Manager uses the system name, not the fully qualified
domain name, regardless of system settings.

Systems in the same DNS zone as the CMS will work fine.

Systems in a different DNS zone will need to have the DNS suffix for the managed node
HP iLO unit added to the IP configuration of the CMS.

You must be able to access the HP iLO via SSH from the CMS.

The License Manager collects HP iLO licenses via SSH.

There is a maximum of two concurrent SSH sessions for an HP iLO unit.

HP iLO SSH sessions may be abandoned and not reclaimed. This causes the HP iLO SSH
to deny new connections, and the License Manager HP iLO license collection to fail. If
this occurs, reset the HP iLO (that is, use the reset button at the bottom of the HP iLO
diagnostics page in the HP iLO web GUI).
