Lights-Out migration utilities are easier to use with a single Lights-Out role. If you plan to
create multiple roles in the directory, you might need to use directory scripting utilities,
like LDIFDE or VB script, to create complex role associations. For more information, see
“Using bulk import tools” (page 161) .

After the schema has been extended, you can complete the directory services setup by using HP
Lights-Out Directories Migration Utilities. For more information, see
“HPLOMIG directory migration
utility” (page 162) . The migration utilities are included in the HP Lights-Out Directory Package.
Version 1.13 and above of the Directories Migration Utility allows Lights-Out import and export
and supports different user credentials for each Lights-Out processor.
Schema documentation
To assist with the planning and approval process, HP provides documentation on 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 171) .
Directory services support
Using HP schema directory integration, iLO 2 supports the following directory services:

Microsoft Active Directory
•
Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Active Directory
•
Microsoft Windows Server 2008 Active Directory
•
Novell eDirectory 8.7.3
•

NetWare, Linux, or Windows. Spawning an eDirectory schema extension requires Java 1.4.0 or
later for SSL authentication.
iLO 2 supports Microsoft Active Directory running on one of the following operating systems:
•
Windows Server 2008
•
Windows Server 2003
iLO 2 supports eDirectory running on Novell.
