How to disable iLO monitoring

[RBrightwell]

I have a few DL380 G4s and we don't utilize the iLO on them. However, SIM(4.2) reports these as being in a "Major" problem status. Is there a way to turn off monitoring of the iLOs?

I was getting similar issues and it was because the card was set to do dhcp by default after I flashed it. Since the iLO card was not attached to any network it produced the error. To take the iLO out of error status I went into it's settings and changed the network settings to blank.

Also I just got this info: There is a tool you can use that supposedly allows you to change the network settings without rebooting the server.

Hope that helps.

We had the same issue on all our new G4 server until I found a post i=on here about putting "remote insight information" in the inactive agents area.

open control panel_>HP Management agents_>move "remote insight information" to the inactive agents tab.

Hopefully that works for you.
