Integrated Lights-Out Select provides cost-effective Lights-Out management upgrades for ProLiant servers that are managed using the remote consoles available in iLO 2 Standard and iLO 2 Standard Blade Edition. iLO Select compliments standard iLO 2 features by activating additional features you need to enable full remote control of your ProLiant servers in routine and emergency situations. iLO Select includes remote console collaboration and replay of BIOS and POST (pre-OS) screens, enterprise security, virtual media and virtual folders, and power management functionality.
iLO Select upgrades for iLO 2 management processors are available by purchasing the HP ProLiant Essentials Integrated Lights-Out Select Pack. The iLO Select Pack provides a license key that activates full remote control, security and power management capabilities for new ProLiant servers with iLO 2 management processors.
