Supported platforms
You can install the Lights-Out Advanced KVM card on any sx2000-based Integrity server with
updated management processor firmware that provides iLO 2 functionality and uses the web
interface to access iLO 2. The Lights-Out Advanced KVM card must be installed in a PCI-X
mode-1 slot. It cannot be used in PCI-X mode 2 slots or in PCIe slots. To determine which slots
are mode-1 compatible, see the documentation for your server product. A Lights-Out Advanced
KVM card is required for each hard partition (nPartition) where you want virtual keyboard,

currently supported on virtual partitions (vPar).
TIP: Remember, you do not need an iLO 2 Advanced Pack license key to use this card.
