Installing the iLO drivers
iLO is an independent microprocessor running an embedded operating system. The architecture
ensures that the majority of iLO functionality is available, regardless of the host operating system.
The iLO drivers enable software such as HPONCFG and the Agentless Management Service to
communicate with iLO. Your OS and system configuration determine the driver requirements.
The iLO drivers are available from the HP Service Pack for ProLiant (Windows, Red Hat, and SLES)
