Proliant ML350 and ILO NIC
Probably a stupid question, but is it possible to use the ILO NIC as a regular NIC in the ML350, so that I can have redundant NICs, or do I have to add another NIC to the server?

Re: Proliant ML350 and ILO NIC
The ILO port basically provides you with remote access to a console feature embedded in a chipset on the motherboard. It's not a normal network input/output device as such so you can't use it as one.
You will have to purchase another NIC for redundancy. Be aware however that HP NIC teaming is based on a common driver for the cards to be teamed so you will need a NIC which uses the same driver as the existing one. You don't mention your ML350 model (G1, G2, G3 G4 etc,) but there are many available NIC choices I'm sure which are suitable. If you reply with your server model a suitable list can be provided.
I hope this helps.

The server is a HP ProLiant ML350 G5, with the NC373i Multifunction Gigabit Network Adapter.

Re: Proliant ML350 and ILO NIC
The ML350 G5 model supports PCI, PCI-X and PCI Express cards.
Probably the best match is the NC373T PCI Express Multifunction Gigabit controller - Option part number is 394791-B21.
