iLO is key to making the server operational and boot. It helps simplify server set up, engage health monitoring as well as power and thermal control.

These capabilities are included with the Server at no extra cost (iLO Standard). No installation needed and a minimal setup is required.

Industry leading features that enhance server administrator productivity are available through optional licenses.

The iLO Advanced license will include all licensed features. This allows customers to have either standard, included features, or upgrade to licensed features that are all available with iLO Advanced.

iLO Initial Set up

Currently, when a customer orders a server, the server is shipped with the default iLO password being a randomized string. The randomized string which is the initial password for the iLO is printed on the iLO Default Network Settings Tag. The default password is used for the initial login and is restored when iLO is Reset to Defaults.

Using a randomized password is the best practice for security. However, some customers that onboard large numbers of servers view this as an impediment to automation.

Customers who prefer to get their servers with a well-defined or common default iLO password, may now order SKU P08040-B21 along with their servers. Ordering this SKU with the server will instruct the factory NOT to randomize the password and set a HPE defined common password. All customers using this SKU will receive their systems with the same password. Server orders that do not include the SKU P08040-B21 will continue to receive their servers with randomized passwords. This common password will be printed on the iLO Default Network Settings Tag and will be the default password if iLO is Reset to Defaults.

HPE highly recommends changing this password immediately after the initial onboarding process.

Customers who want to choose their own custom default password should use the HPE Factory Express Integration Services.
