its not a license issue because blade servers include the iLO Advanced License.

Hello SRH

I sorted out the issue. There was a memory problem in my Server.. I removed the faulty memory..

Just before the system boots,this message is
displayed for short time as iLO is waiting for some video information from the server as server is being reset.

After the system boots,
Just before the OS gets started (in Graphical mode),this message may be displayed for a short time.

Questions
1.Are you getting this message on remote console when the server is powered off ?
OR
2.Are you getting this message on remote console when the server is rebooting ?
