iLO 2 MP
The Integrated Lights-Out Management Processor (iLO MP) for entry class Integrity servers is an
autonomous management subsystem embedded directly on the server. It is the foundation of the
server’s High Availability (HA), embedded server, and fault management. It also provides system
administrators secure remote management capabilities regardless of server status or location. The
iLO MP is available whenever the system is connected to a power source, even if the server main
power switch is in the off position.
HP has used several different names over the years to describe the management functionality
embedded in their servers, including “the management processor.” In addition, HP uses the term
“management processor” to refer to any embedded microprocessor that manages a system.
Management processor is a descriptive term (such as “server”), and iLO, is a brand name, or label
(such as “Integrity”).
Remote access is the key to maximizing efficiency of administration and troubleshooting for
enterprise servers. Integrity servers have been designed so all administrative functions that can be
performed locally on the machine, can also be performed remotely. iLO enables remote access to
the operating system console, control over the server’s power and hardware reset functionality,
and works with the server to enable remote network booting through a variety of methods.
Integrity iLO 2 refers to an Integrated Lights Out 2 Management Processor (iLO 2 MP) with the
latest advanced digital video redirection technology. This new feature gives you a higher
performance graphics console redirection experience than with the previous iLO.
