Understand Gen10 can be monitored only via agentless option i.e. via the ILO5. One of my customers intends to use IRS Software to use the VMware Vcenter to discover the Gen8/Gen9/Gen10 which are build using HPE ESXi OEM image. While there should be no issues for the Gen8/Gen9 servers, will this method also work for Gen10 Servers?

Hi!,
Thanks for the reply. So in this case the HPE AMS utility will provide the H/W alerts to IRS via the Vcentre? the ILO5 will not be connected. Not sure if there will be WBEM bundle for Gen10 Servers in the ESXi OEM image? Will be checking with IRS Support too on this.

OK, this is a little different than what I thought you were asking. What I responded to was using a connected iLO 5 to I-RS to detect service events from the iLO.
Have you succesfully done what you propose on iLO 4 (Gen8/9) systems? I don't think we have tested this setup - but if you have it working on the earlier iLO (4) - then I would think it will work with Gen10 - but still would like to hear the result of your testing.
