Can you open ILO links after login to OA.
Are you able to access the iLO with their IP address.

Yes I can log into the ilo indepently but not through the auto logon. Right now the ilos are using dhcp.

Hi Mpett2,
Are the iLOÂ´s and OA on same subnet?

Login to OA CLI and Execute the command
"reset server "
Note: When you try this command the OS will Go down there will be no connectivity till it boots UP. This should fix the Problem.

DO Telnet or SSH to OA IP address.
It will ask you for Username and Password.
Login.

there are several fixes for "iLO2 to stop responding" situations - maybe a firmware update will help.
