HP Integrated Lights-Out 2 - Manual (Page 140)

Management snap-in installer
The management snap-in installer installs the snap-ins required to manage iLO 2 objects in a
Microsoft Active Directory Users and Computers directory or Novell ConsoleOne directory.
iLO 2 snap-ins are used to perform the following tasks in creating an iLO 2 directory:
•
Creating and managing the iLO 2 and role objects (policy objects will be supported at a later
date).
•
Making the associations between iLO 2 objects and the role (or policy) objects.
Directory services for Active Directory
The following sections provide installation prerequisites, preparation, and a working example of
Directory Services for Active Directory. HP provides a utility to automate much of the directory
setup process. You can download the HP Directories Support for Management Processors on the
HP website at

Active Directory installation prerequisites
•
The Active Directory must have a digital certificate installed to allow iLO 2 to connect securely
over the network.
•
The Active Directory must have the schema extended to describe Lights-Out object classes and
properties.
•
The firmware version must be iLO v1.40 or later, or iLO v1.00 or later.
