Prerequisites for bringing server hardware into an appliance

Server hardware model

The server hardware must be a supported model listed in the HPE OneView Support Matrix for HPE Synergy.

The server hardware must have a valid serial number and product ID programmed into it that matches the physical tag on the server hardware. The server is shipped out of the factory with the correct configuration. If the server is repaired or replaced after it has been shipped, a mismatch can occur. If a mismatch does occur, the serial number and product ID can be programmed using the UEFI System Utilities from the system console. For more information, see Replace the system board on a server that has a server profile assigned.

iLO firmware

The iLO firmware version must meet the minimum requirement listed in the HPE OneView Support Matrix for HPE Synergy. If Service Pack for ProLiant is uploaded into HPE OneView, the firmware is updated automatically.

Local user accounts

iLO must be configured to allow for local user accounts.
