HP System Management Homepage user name & password?

rf1nley — Thu, 05 Jan 2012 15:28:43 GMT

I am on a DL360 G4. I have installed Ubuntu 11.04 and the PSP. I am physically at the machine logged into a GNOME session and I am looking at the System Management Homepage login screen in Mozilla Firefox 9.0.1.

What would the user name/password be? My account credentials do not work, nor do the default iLO credentials marked on the machine.

You have a disabled root account (by default), see

By default the root user account is locked in Ubuntu https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo

Enable root per above linked document

Verify you can login as the additional user

Disable root account per above linked document

Setting a root password thus enabling the root account, and then logging into the HP System Management Homepage as "root" worked.

Thank you for pointing me in the right direction guys.
