"The iLO is not licensed to use the Integrated Remote Console after server POST is complet

After a firmware update I get this message:
The iLO is not licensed to use the Integrated Remote Console after server POST is complete...."

Does this mean I wont be able to use ilo to install an OS anymore?
Why the change after updating??

Hi,

Please give more details like Server model, iLO Version, iLO FW version, iLO License type that is currently installed.
Here is a similar post for your reference.

Thank You!

Hi,

the iLO is not licensed to use the Integrated Remote Console after server POST is complete...."

The IRC always needs the "iLO Advanced License", there has been no change for years.
In the Past without a License, it worked for some minutes, after cutting the Monitor/Keyboard for remote Sessions.

Does this mean I wont be able to use ilo to install an OS anymore?
Yes, or you can plug a Monitor/Keyboard into the Server, like the good old Days.

Why the change after updating??
It seems, that this behavor is now changed to Boot Screen only.

Btw, you can try out iLO Advnced for 90 Days:
HPE iLO Advanced Trial License | HPE

Will downgrading help to restore it to how to was?

If the ILO is licensed then kindly use the License key to re-activate it. If the server is not licensed then it is a feature of ILO to stop remote console after the POST completes. If ILO is licensed then you should be able to use remote console even after POST. Please use the below links to get in touch with the ILO licensing team:-

I bought this machine used, I do not have the licence key. Could I retrive the licence key from the ilo backup perhaps. I'm not sure if it was ilo advanced, all I know is that I was able to remotely install the OS.

Second question, if someone has already used an iLO advanced trial key on this machine, will I still be able to get another trial and activate it here?

ILO license needs to be purchased however you can use a trial license which should help you to install the Operating system:-

Also you can use a monitor and keyboard to install the OS.
