2 Installing and Using AOL2

The follow sections describe how to install, use, and disable the AOL2 feature.

Setting Up AOL2 at the Server

1. Boot the NetServer and run the server's BIOS setup program (press F2

when prompted during the boot process).

2. At the main menu, go under Configuration and get to the embedded LAN

A port menu.

3. Enable the LAN power on/off and Wake On LAN (WOL) functions.

4. Save and exit.

5. After the Network Operating System is installed, run the NetServer Agents

installation program (this may be done from a client). The setup program is
located on the HP NetServer Navigator CD-ROM under

Manage\Server\language\NOS\setup.exe

where language indicates the language (FR=French, GE=German,
IT=Italian, SP=Spanish, US=English) and NOS indicates the abbreviation
for the version of Windows.

6. Once the NetServer Agents are installed, it is a good idea to go to each

server that you will be using AOL2 on and confirm that the two services
HPSDNSVC (the shutdown service) and HPAOLSVC (the AOL2
service) are set to "automatic" and have been started (the AOL2 setup
program should do this by default). You can do this under Control Panel |
Services
. The services should be set this way to ensure that they start
automatically whenever the server is restarted.

NOTE

If the IP address of your server ever changes, you will need to
either reboot the server or stop and restart the AOL2 service.
Not doing so will prevent you from using AOL2 features on
your server.
