HP Integrated Lights-Out, Integrated Lights-Out 2, Integrated Lights-Out
Advanced Pack, and Lights-Out 100
Models VT5900-H and VT5900-L support HP Integrated Lights-Out (iLO), HP Integrated Lights-Out 2,
and HP Integrated Lights-Out Advanced Pack, which are collectively referred to here at “iLO”. Model
VT5900-K supports HP ProLiant Lights-Out 100. These remote control services enable you to log in to
the VTS server using the iLO virtual serial port or Mgmt port.
l For information about using iLO, refer to
http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bc/docs/support/SupportManual/c00209014/c00209014.pdf.
l For information about using Lights-Out 100, refer to
http://bizsupport1.austin.hp.com/bc/docs/support/SupportManual/c01325507/c01325507.pdf.
Note that if you are using a serial connection over the physical serial port (connected through
/dev/ttyS0), use the following connection settings:
l Speed: 115200 bps
l Data Bits: 8
l Parity: None
l Stop bits: 1
After iLO or Lights-Out 100 is configured, you can enable iLO or Lights-Out 100 access on the system
boot menu by running /usr/local/tape/bin/grub-serial.bash as root and then rebooting the system.
iLO or Lights-Out 100 access to the VTS server is available without running this script, but you
cannot access the boot menu to change boot parameters or select a different kernel using iLO or
Lights-Out 100.
Common issues
The following sections provide general information to diagnose hardware components and software
features of the VTS system.
NonStop server
If error 190 occurs on the Subsystem Control Facility (SCF), perform the following:
l Check the power on VTS.
l Check the SCSI converter. (Blue LED indicates power is on.)
l Check the SCSI cable connections for bent or loose pins.
l QTOS users must stop the QTOS process before stopping or starting a virtual tape drive from
SCF.
