iLO Firmware Upgrade Problem

[Eric Painley]

I have recently upgraded the iLO Firmware on a ProLiant ML350 G5 using the online firmware flash utility. It successfully upgraded from version 1.81 to 1.82. However I am no longer able to access the remote console. I can see the screen however the mouse and keyboard does not work remotely. Even the Ctrl-Alt-Del button on that window does not work. Do I have to restart the server after the firmware upgrade in order for the keyboard and mouse to function?

Hi,

All system firmware update or try ilo reset.

Ok thanks! I will try that sometime this week (it is a production server so I obviously cannot restart it any time I feel fit to)
