Create a Composer2 iLO user account to access the Composer2 remotely through iLO

This procedure describes how to create a user account on the HPE Synergy Composer2 iLO and configure the required network settings on the iLO to enable remote access.

Prerequisites
  • Privileges: Infrastructure administrator
Procedure
  1. From the main menu, select Settings > Appliance.

    The Composable Infrastructure Appliances panel displays the list of known Composer and Image Streamer nodes that are present in the enclosures managed by HPE OneView. The list includes HPE Synergy Composer and Image Streamer nodes as well. You can configure iLO for remote access only on the Composer2.

  2. Click the Edit icon against the Composer2 node that you want to configure for remote access.
  3. Select Enable external iLO access.
  4. Enter the iLO hostname and user account credentials.
  5. Enter the iLO IP address, subnet mask, gateway address, and DNS server names. These network parameters allow access to the iLO from an external browser.
    NOTE:

    Both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses are supported.

  6. Click OK to submit the changes.
  7. Verify that the iLO address is appearing for the configured Composer2 node in the Composable Infrastructure Appliances list in the Appliance page.

A user account is created on the Composer2 iLO that allows you access the Composer2 remotely.
