iLO Advanced Features
Directory Services Integration
Integrated Lights-Out 2 integrates with enterprise-class directory services to provide secure, scalable, and cost effective user management.
Single Sign-On
iLO 2 users can automatically login to iLO 2 from HP System Insight Manager (version 5.1 or greater) and the HP BladeSystem Onboard Administrator.
Multi-factor authentication (Firmware version 1.10 or greater)
Integrated Lights-Out 2 provides strong user authentication with two-factor authentication using digital certificates embedded on smartcards or USB flash drives.
Terminal Services Integration (iLO 2 Advanced Only) (Coming Soon)
Integrated Lights Out integrates with Microsoft Terminal Services to provide a high performance graphical remote console by automatically or manually switching to Microsoft Terminal Services when the operating system is fully loaded and available on the host system.

Insight Power Manager – Overview
Understanding HP Power Regulator• Power Regulator uses the processor p-states to change two key
attributes that affect power consumption.• 1. CPU frequency: Moving to a lower p-state causes the affected CPU to operate
at a lower frequency. For example, a 3.773 GHz processor might operate at 3.0 GHz in a lower p-state.
• 2. CPU voltage: Moving to a lower p-state causes the affected CPU to operate at a lower level of voltage.
CPU operating at 1.4v at max p-state might operate at 1.2v in the min. p-state.

HP Power Regulator is a hardware-level feature that enables ProLiant systems to save power - and thereby financial resources - by controlling the processor performance states (p-states) of the server CPUs.
Insight Power Manager monitors and uses HP Power Regulator technology.
Insight Power Manager – ModesThere are four modes in which Power Regulator can operate:
• • HP Static Low Power Mode. − In this mode, Power Regulator sets the processors to the lowest supported power state and forces
the CPUs to stay in that lowest state. This mode saves the maximum amount of resources, but it might affect the system performance if processor utilization stays at or above 75% utilization.
• • HP Static High Performance Mode.− In this mode, Power Regulator sets the processors to the highest supported processor state and
forces the CPUs to stay in that highest state. This mode ensures maximum performance, but it does not save any resources. This mode can be useful for creating a baseline of power consumption data without Power Regulator.
• • HP Dynamic Power Savings Mode. − In this mode, Power Regulator sets the processors to the appropriate power level based on the
utilization of each CPU core during the last 1/8 second. The CPU is set to the power saving processor p-state if the CPU is operating at a utilization level that can be completed at the slower CPU frequency. The CPU is set to the maximum performance processor p-state if the CPU is operating at a utilization level that requires the fastest CPU frequency. The point at which Power Regulator shifts from the minimum p-state to the maximum p-state varies based on the processor installed in the system. A 3.773 GHz CPU that has a 3.0 GHz minimum p-state frequency switches modes at around 75% utilization. A 3.2 GHz CPU that has a 3.0 GHz minimum p-state frequency switches modes at around 88% utilization. It is the ratio of the maximum p-state compared to the minimum p-state, plus a small guard band, that determines the utilization at which the processor switches from minimum p-state to maximum p-state.
• • OS Control Mode. − In this mode, Power Regulator configures the server to enable the operating system to control the
processor
