Virtual Power and Reset—Enables a user to power-cycle or reset the host system. These
activities interrupt the system availability. A user with this privilege can diagnose the
system by using the Generate NMI to System button.

Virtual Media—Enables a user to use the Virtual Media feature on the host system.

Configure iLO Settings—Enables a user to configure most iLO settings, including security
settings, and to remotely update the iLO firmware. This privilege does not enable local
user account administration.

After iLO is configured, revoking this privilege from all users prevents reconfiguration with
the web interface, HPQLOCFG, or the CLI. Users who have access to iLO RBSU, the UEFI
System Utilities, or HPONCFG can still reconfigure iLO. Only a user who has the
Administer User Accounts privilege can enable or disable this privilege.

IPMI/DCMI users

The iLO firmware follows the IPMI 2.0 specification. When you are adding IPMI/DCMI users, the
login name must be a maximum of 16 characters, and the password must be a maximum of 20
characters.

When you select iLO user permissions, the equivalent IPMI/DCMI user privilege is displayed in
the IPMI/DCMI Privilege based on above settings box.

User—A user has read-only access. A user cannot configure or write to iLO, or perform system
actions.

For IPMI User privileges: Disable all privileges. Any combination of privileges that does not
meet the Operator level is an IPMI User.

Operator—An operator can perform system actions, but cannot configure iLO or manage user
accounts.

For IPMI Operator privileges: Enable Remote Console Access, Virtual Power and Reset, and
Virtual Media. Any combination of privileges greater than Operator that does not meet the
Administrator level is an IPMI Operator.

Administrator—An administrator has read and write access to all features.

For IPMI Administrator privileges: Enable all privileges.

Administering directory groups

iLO enables you to view iLO groups and modify settings for those groups. You must have the
Configure iLO Settings privilege to add or edit directory groups. Use the Add/Edit Directory Group
page to add or edit iLO directory groups.
