Re-enabling ILO Security

[Chris Williams_12]

Hi, we have recently taken support of two compaq blade servers and the administrator password for ILO was never provided. I enabled the jumper to "disable" ILO security and was then able to enter the ILO configuration settings without actually having to pass any user credentials. Unfortunatly, when I now try and re-enable ILO security by reverting the jumper settings to it's default position, the server will not power on!

Does anyone know of any specific configuration that needs to be made in order to re-enable ILO security.

Thanks!

Hello Chris,
Here is the link for pdf for the User Guide which will be helpful to you. Also please make sure that you have Network cable plugged in when re enabling it.
