Troubleshooting iLO 2 212

7. Use the following command to execute the iLO 2 firmware update in direct mode:
sh CP012108.scexe --direct (this parameter requires two dash (--) characters)
8. Once the iLO 2 firmware upgrade completes, power the server off and set the iLO 2 Security Override

Switch on the system board to Off.

iLO 2 does not respond to SSL requests

iLO 2 does not respond to SSL requests when a Java™ warning appears. If a user is logging into an iLO

2 browser connection and does not complete the login process by responding to the Java™ certificate

warning, iLO 2 does not respond to future browser requests. The user must continue the login process to
free the iLO 2 Web server.

Testing SSL

The following test checks for the correct security dialog prompt. A non-working server will proceed to a
Page cannot be displayed message. If this test fails, your domain controller is not accepting SSL

connections, and probably has not been issued a certificate.

1.

Open a browser and navigate to :636.
You can substitute in place of which goes to the DNS and checks
which domain controller is handling requests for the domain. Test multiple domain controllers to

verify all of them have been issued a certificate.

2.

If SSL is operating correctly on the domain controller (a certificate is issued), you are prompted with

a security message asking if you want to proceed with accessing the site, or view the server’s
certificate. Clicking Yes does not display a web page. This is normal. This process is automatic, but

might require rebooting. To avoid rebooting:

a.

Open the MMC and add the certificates snap-in. When prompted, select Computer Account for
the type of certificates you want to view. Click OK to return to the certificates snap in.

b.

Select Personal>Certificates folder. Right-click the folder and select Request New Certificate.

c.

Verify Type is domain controller and click Next until a certificate is used.

You can also use Microsoft® LDP tool to verify SSL connections. For more information on the LDP tool, go

to the Microsoft® website (

http://www.microsoft.com/support

).

An old certificate can cause problems with SSL can on the domain controller when it points to a

previously trusted CA with the same name, which is rare but might happen if a certificate service is added

and removed and then added again on the domain controller. To remove old certificates and issue a new

one follow the instructions in Step 2.

Resetting iLO 2

In rare instances, it might be necessary to reset iLO 2; for example, if iLO 2 is not responding to the

browser. To reset iLO 2, you must power down the server and disconnect the power supplies completely.
iLO 2 might reset itself in certain instances. For example, an internal iLO 2 watchdog timer resets if the

firmware detects an iLO 2 problem. If a firmware upgrade is completed or a network setting is changed,

iLO 2 also resets.
