Basic system management functions, diagnostics and essential Lights-Out functionality are included as core components of Integrated Lights-Out (iLO) supported servers. The standard features of iLO are referred to as iLO Standard. Advanced remove administration functionality, referred to as iLO Advanced, can be licensed with the optional Integrated Lights-Out Advanced Pack for HP Integrity Servers.

iLO functionality on HP Integrity servers is very similar to that offered on HP Pro-ProLiant servers to ensure a common user experience between HP's ProLiant and Integrity platforms.

The key iLO Standard features on Integrity servers include:

Web Graphical User Interface (GUI). Access the iLO from anywhere using any standard browser
Virtual Power. Full remove control of the server power button
Remote text console. Operating system-independent, text-based console to display and control remove host server activities such as shutdown and start-up
Virtual Serial Port. Access serial port applications such as Windows Server 2003 Emergency Management Services and Text Telephone (TTY) sessions over your LAN
Command line and scripting interfaces. Flexible operation, configuration, and maintenance
Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption. All data transmitted between iLO processors and client browsers
iLO and server diagnostics. Detailed status logs
Domain Name System (DNS)/Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP).
Remove Firmware Update.
Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI) over LAN.

The key iLO Advanced Pack features include:

Directory Services Integration for iLO User Management using Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP)-based Directory Services
Secure Shell (SSH encryption) support for secure access to iLO
iLO Group Actions for managing multiple systems using HP Systems Insight Manager (HP SIM)
