DESCRIPTION:   Firmware for the Hewlett-Packard
               iLO 4 Management Controller
               
LAST RECOMMENDED OR CRITICAL VERSION: 2.10


PREVIOUS VERSION: 2.10


UPGRADE REQUIREMENTS: RECOMMENDED

  Users should update to this firmware version if their system is
  affected by one of the documented fixes or if there is a desire to utilize any of
  the enhanced functionality provided by this version.

FIRMWARE DEPENDENCY:

  For best performance and IPv6 support, HP recommends upgrading to the latest versions
  of the iLO utilities:
  
   HPQLOCFG 1.4.0 (replaced CPQLOCFG)
   HP Lights-Out XML Scripting Sample 4.60 bundle
   HPONCFG 4.6.0.0 (Windows)
   HPONCFG 4.5.0.0 (Linux)
   LOCFG.PL 4.60 (included in the HP Lights-Out XML Scripting Sample bundle)
   HPLOMIG 4.60 (upgrade HPLOMIG before installing this version of iLO 4)


KNOWN ISSUES: None

Fixes:

The following issues are resolved in this version:

   Fixed detection of the Intel GPU sensor in Gen9 servers with the GPU. This allows
    fans to be controlled more reasonably.
   Staged ROM settings might be lost after CONREP is run if the server was reset before
    iLO was reset.
   The correct number of license seats is not displayed when 256 or more seats are 
    licensed.
   Fixed an IPMI driver issue for Linux.
   Fixed a Virtual Media disconnect issue.
   Fixed a DHCP client renewal issue.
   Alertmail webpage rejects email addresses with  wwww@xxxx.yyy.zz  format
   Fixed an IPMI boot option issue when using IPMI tool. 
   The set command in the iLO CLI does not finish on DL380 Gen9 servers.
   The iLO IPv6 options are set to the default values when FIPS mode is enabled. 
   The iLO web interface hangs for a few minutes when a long string is entered for a
    group firmware update. 
   Added an iLO workaround for IPMI tool boot parameter command options.
   LDAP authentication fails when a password contains diacritic characters.
   LDAP authentication might fail against a properly configured OpenLDAP server due to 
    protocol version restrictions.
   iLO sends several multicast join/leave requests when disabling multicast.
   iLO event logs that contain an IP address are dropped if the DNS lookup queue is 
    full. These events are now logged with (DNS name not found) in place of the DNS name.
   The iLO web interface allows an iLO Federation Group Key with more than 32 characters
    when the character limit is 31.
   The set_Boot_Mode.xml script fails when you use HPONCFG to set legacy mode for Gen8 
    servers.
   The Firmware page incorrectly displays slot 0 for HP220i Host adapters.
   The Asset Tag can be set via XML when the server is powered off, except for when
    the server is in UEFI mode.
   An Embedded Flash/SD-Card subsystem failure is not logged in iLO Event log.  
   iLO does not reset when Active Health System logging is enabled via XML.
   An iLO event log entry is not recorded when network settings are modified 
    by using the CLI.
   The floppy disc boot options always, never, and once are displayed in the Gen9 CLI,
    but these features are not supported.
   A TPM Caution message is not displayed when a new language pack is installed.
   The tooltip on the Device Inventory page does not disappear when you click 
    outside the table.


Enhancements:

This version adds support for the following features and enhancements:

   The Remote Console security settings were moved from the Administration > 
    Security > Remote Console page to the Remote Console > Security page.
   The new Authentication Failure Delay Time setting allows users to 
    configure the duration of the iLO login delay after a failed login attempt. 
    This setting can be configured on the Access Settings page.
   The new Authentication Failures Before Delay setting allows users to configure
    the number of failed login attempts that are allowed before iLO imposes a 
    login delay. This setting can be configured on the Access Settings page.
   iLO 4 2.20 and later allows you to install more than one language pack.
      - For iLO 4 2.10 and earlierYou can install one language pack at a time. 
        Installing a new language pack replaces the currently installed language 
        pack, regardless of the language pack version.
      - For iLO 4 2.20 and laterLanguage packs are not supported on servers that 
        do not have a NAND. Servers without a NAND should continue to use iLO 
        4 2.10.
      - iLO 4 2.20 or later requires version 2.20 or later of the iLO language 
        pack.
      - When you upgrade from an earlier version of iLO 4 to version 2.20 or 
        later, previously installed language packs are deleted.
      - The following language packs are available: Japanese and Simplified 
        Chinese.
   The HP ProLiant Agentless Management Service status is now listed on the 
    Information > System Information > Summary page.
   Trusted Module status is now displayed on the Information > Overview page.
   RIBCL scripts and the CLP can now be used to send a test trap to test the 
    SNMP configuration.
   Added support for IPv6 in IPMI LAN Configuration Command Parameters.



Feature previews:
   Shared Network Port port selectionAllows you to choose between port 1 and port 2 
    for Shared Network Port functionality. You can configure this setting
    on the Network > Shared Network Port > General page in the iLO web interface. 
    
    NOTE: Not all sideband NICs are supported. In some cases, port 2 might not 
    be fully functional.

         NICs that work with port #2 for sideband:
         361i-2port-1GB NIC
         331FLR-4P-1G NIC
         366FLR-4P- 1G NIC

   iLO network connection auto-selectAllows you to configure iLO to automatically 
    select the iLO Dedicated Network Port or Shared Network Port, based on the 
    detected network activity. This feature can be configured
    by using the iLO CLI or XML scripting.

   responding correctly. Use the data on the Multi-System map page to troubleshoot data 
   inconsistency errors.

DOCUMENTATION -

1.  iLO 4 documentation is available at http://www.hp.com/go/iLO/docs.

2.  Check the online help for information about how to use iLO. To access the 
    online help, Click the question mark icon in the upper right corner of 
    any iLO web interface page.

HOW TO USE -

1.  Download the iLO 4 Online Firmware Update Component for your
    operating system.

2.  Install the firmware using one of these options:

    a) Run the component on the host to be updated.
       The component will update the iLO 4 firmware and reset the iLO processor.

    b) Extract the firmware from the component. This will place the firmware
       image file, iLo4_yyy.bin (where yyy represents the firmware version), in
       the target directory.  You now have these options:

       i) Login to iLO, navigate to the Update Firmware page, and update the
          firmware from there.

       ii) Use the HP Lights-Out Configuration Utility (HPQLOCFG) and RIBCL/XML
           scripts to update iLO 4 across the network.

       iii) Use the HP Online Lights-Out Configuration utility (HPONCFG) and
            RIBCL/XML scripts to update iLO 4 from the supported host OS.

3.  iLO automatically resets after a successful update.
    There is no need to manually reboot the iLO.
