Assign rights to the role object, as necessary, and associate the role with the management
device object.

Add users to the role object.

For more information about managing the directory service, see

“Directory-enabled remote

management” (page 280)

. Examples are available in

“Directory services for Active Directory”

(page 264)

and

“Directory services for eDirectory” (page 272)

.

Handle exceptions

iLO migration utilities are easier to use with a single role. If you plan to create multiple roles
in the directory, you might need to use directory scripting utilities, like LDIFDE or VBScript
utilities. These utilities create complex role associations. For more information, see

“Using bulk

import tools” (page 286)

.

After the schema has been extended, you can complete the directory services setup by using HP
migration utilities, which are included in the HP Directories Support for ProLiant Management
Processors package.

Schema documentation

To assist with the planning and approval process, HP provides documentation about the changes
made to the schema during the schema setup process. To review the changes made to your existing
schema, see

“Directory services schema” (page 339)

.

Directory services support

iLO software is designed to run with the Microsoft Active Directory Users and Computers snap-in
or the Novell ConsoleOne management tools, enabling you to manage user accounts through the
directory.

iLO supports the following directory services for HP schema directory integration:

Microsoft Active Directory

Microsoft Windows Server 2008 Active Directory

Novell eDirectory

This solution makes no distinction between eDirectory running on Linux or eDirectory running
on Windows. eDirectory schema extension requires Java 1.4.0 or later for SSL authentication.

Schema required software

iLO requires specific software that extends the schema and provides snap-ins to manage the iLO
network. The HP Directories Support for ProLiant Management Processors package contains the
schema installer and the management snap-in installer, as shown in

Figure 131 (page 262)

. You

can download the software from
