Configuring Composer2 iLO for remote access

You can configure the iLO of the HPE Synergy Composer2 for remote access from the Settings > Appliance screen. All the Composer2 nodes that are present in the enclosures managed by HPE OneView can be configured, including standby or standalone Composer2 nodes.

Composer2 iLO settings

The following are the settings that you can configure for the Composer2 iLO in HPE OneView:

  • The iLO user account and password that are required to log in to the Composer2 iLO.

  • Network parameters that allow you to access the Composer2 iLO from an external browser. The network parameters include iLO hostname, iLO IP address, subnet mask, gateway, and DNS server names. Both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses are supported.

Requirements

  • A single iLO user account is supported. Creating a user account replaces any existing user account.

  • The iLO username cannot be "Administrator" or start with an "_".

  • The iLO user account is assigned a predefined set of privileges that allows the user to perform a restricted set of iLO operations. Specifically, the iLO account has permissions to control power, use the iLO Integrated Remote Console (iLO IRC), and use the iLO Virtual Media.

    NOTE:

    Use iLO .NET IRC or iLO Java IRC. The iLO HTML5 IRC, at the time of this writing, does not support virtual media features.
