FIRMWARE DEPENDENCY: Hewlett Packard Enterprise recommends the following or greater versions of iLO utilities for best performance: - RESTful Interface Tool (iLOREST) 2.3 - HPQLOCFG v5.2 - Lights-Out XML Scripting Sample bundle 5.10.0 - HPONCFG Windows 5.3.0 - HPONCFG Linux 5.4.0 - LOCFG v5.10.0 - HPLOMIG 5.2.0 KNOWN ISSUES: - Fibre Channel Ports are displayed with degraded status if they are configured but not attached. FIXES: - IML reports fan modules failed for D3000 only after server reboot - eRS service event added for Critical events like System Power Fault Detection - Security fixes - Added a Content Security Policy( CSP) to harden the web interfaces - Enhanced Input validation for user controlled data ENHANCEMENTS: - Updated Jquery library to 3.5.1 - Updated Openssl library to OpenSSL 1.0.2x - eRS enhanced to support generic service event 1000 for critical events SECURITY: For the latest security bulletins and vulnerabilities, please visit: https://support.hpe.com/hpesc/public/home Security best practices: Please refer to the HPE Integrated Lights-Out Security Technology Brief for the latest on security best practices at: http://www.hpe.com/support/iLO4_security_en Feature previews: Shared Network Port, port selection: Allows you to choose between port 1 and port 2 for Shared Network Port functionality. You can configure this setting on the Network > Shared Network Port > General page in the iLO web interface. NOTE: Not all sideband NICs are supported. In some cases, port 2 might not be fully functional. NICs that work with port #2 for sideband: HPE FlexFabric 10Gb 2-port 556FLR-T Adapter HPE FlexFabric 10Gb 2-port 533FLR-T Adapter HPE Ethernet 10G 2-port 562FLR-SFP+ ALOM HPE Ethernet 10/25G 2-port 640FLR-SFP28 ALOM HPE FlexFabric 10Gb 4-port 536FLR-T Adapter 361i-2port-1GB NIC 331FLR-4P-1G NIC 366FLR-4P- 1G NIC 561FLR-T-2P-10GB NIC 526FLR-SFP+2P-10GB NIC InfiniBand QDR/Ethernet 10Gb 2-port 544+FLR-QSFP Adapter **Port #2 Only 534FLR-SFP+2P-10GB NIC Ethernet 1GB 2-port 330i Adapter BCM57810 NetXtreme II 10 GigE (NDIS VBD) FlexFabric 10Gb 2-port 554FLR-SFP+ Adapter Ethernet 10Gb 2P 560FLR-SFP+ Adapter SUPPORT - 1. iLO 4 firmware updates and utilities are available at: http://www.hpe.com/support/iLO4 2.

You might encounter a "data inconsistency error" when you use iLO Federation Management. This error occurs when an iLO on your network is not responding correctly. Use the data on the Multi-System map page to troubleshoot data inconsistency errors. DOCUMENTATION - 1. iLO 4 documentation is available at http://www.hpe.com/support/iLO4. 2. Check the online help for information about how to use iLO. To access the online help, click the question mark icon in the upper right corner of any iLO web interface page. HOW TO USE - 1. Download the iLO 4 Online Firmware Update Component for your operating system. 2. Install the firmware using one of these options: a) Run the component on the host to be updated. The component will update the iLO 4 firmware and reset the iLO processor. b) Extract the firmware from the component. This will place the firmware image file, iLo4_yyy.bin (where yyy represents the firmware version), in the target directory. You now have these options: i) Login to iLO, navigate to the Update Firmware page, and update the firmware from there. ii) Use the Lights-Out Configuration Utility (HPQLOCFG) and RIBCL/XML scripts to update iLO 4 across the network. iii) Use the Online Lights-Out Configuration utility (HPONCFG) and RIBCL/XML scripts to update iLO 4 from the supported host OS. 3. iLO automatically resets after a successful update. There is no need to manually reset iLO. Copyright 2002-2021 Hewlett Packard Enterprise Development, LP
