Managing iLO reboots, factory reset, and NMI
Rebooting (resetting) iLO
In some cases, it might be necessary to reset iLO; for example, if iLO is not responding to the browser.
Using the
Reset
option does not make any configuration changes, but ends all active connections to the
iLO firmware. If a firmware file upload is in progress, it is terminated. If a firmware flash is in progress, you
cannot reset iLO until the process is finished.
iLO reset methods
• Click
Reset
on the
Diagnostics
page in the iLO web interface.
• Use the CLI or HPONCFG. For instructions, see the iLO scripting and CLI guide.
• Use the iLO 5 Configuration Utility.
• Use the server UID button on supported servers.
• Use the iLO RESTful API. For more information, see
http://www.hpe.com/info/restfulapi
.
• Use IPMI. For more information, see the iLO IPMI user guide.
If none of these methods are available or working as expected, you must power down the server and
disconnect the power supplies.
