corner.
Click Properties to update the iLO and or ESX/ESXi host password settings.

3. Update the user name and password for the iLO or ESX/ESXi host.
When updating the properties information at the cluster level, information is updated for all of the
servers in the cluster. When updating the properties information at the host or server level,
information is updated for that host or server only.
You can also use this page to set or update the power cost for a cluster.
Setting the power cost for a cluster
Before entering the power cost settings for a cluster, ensure that the cluster meets the following
requirements:
•
The cluster contains at least one HP ProLiant server or BladeSystem enclosure
•
The cluster is DRS-enabled
•
The cluster is configured for DPM
To determine if the cluster is DRS-enabled, navigate to the vCenter Server Summary tab for the
cluster and review the cluster information.
From the Properties screen for the cluster, enter the Power Cost. Entering the power cost for a cluster
generates the cost advantage information displayed on the Power Management screen.
