How the iLO is changed as a result of HPE OneView management

When server hardware is being managed by the appliance, the following configuration changes are made to the iLO on the server:

  • A management account (_HPOneViewadmin) is created and can be viewed on the iLO Overview and User Administration screens.

  • SNMP is enabled and the appliance is added as an SNMP trap destination.

    NOTE:

    Health monitoring is not enabled on HPE ProLiant G6 or HPE ProLiant G7 iLO 3 server hardware until the management agents are installed on the OS and the SNMP service is configured with the same SNMP read community string shown on the Settings screen.

  • NTP is enabled and the appliance becomes the server hardware’s NTP time source.

  • An appliance certificate is installed to enable single sign-on operations.

  • If the iLO is running an earlier firmware version, and a Service Pack for ProLiant (SPP) has been uploaded onto the appliance, theiLO firmware is automatically updated to the version in the SPP.
