The ROM-Based Diagnostic Utility provides a preboot method for quickly
checking the validity of the three major sub-systems of the server (memory,
CPU, and boot disk) needed to boot an operating system.

For more information on the System Maintenance Menu, refer to the HP ROM-
Based Setup Utility User Guide
on the Documentation CD.

Integrated Lights-Out Technology

Integrated Lights-Out is a standard component of selected ProLiant servers that
provides server health and remote server manageability. The iLO subsystem
includes an intelligent microprocessor, secure memory, and a dedicated network
interface. This design makes iLO independent of the host server and its operating
system. The iLO subsystem provides remote access to any authorized network
client, sends alerts, and provides other server management functions.

Using iLO, you can:

Remotely power up, power down, or reboot the host server.

Send alerts from iLO regardless of the state of the host server.

Access advanced troubleshooting features through the iLO interface.

Diagnose iLO using Insight Manager 7 through a Web browser and SNMP
alerting.

For more information about iLO features, refer to the Integrated Lights-Out User
Guide
on the Documentation CD or on the HP website
(

).

iLO ROM-Based Setup Utility

HP recommends using iLO RBSU to configure and set up iLO. iLO RBSU is
designed to assist you with setting up iLO on a network; it is not intended for
continued administration.

To run iLO RBSU:

1. Restart or power up the server.
