Access RBSU on ML350 G6 remotely

  • 772

We have a remote server having issues and the HP Support guy suggested to

"Disable No-Execute Memory Protection in the server BIOS."

This is easy if you have the server onsite and there are many resources on the web how to do this. But how about setting the BIOS remotely? Would that be possible. Trying to search it on the net but found none.

Server: HP Proliant ML350 G6 ILo 2

Any help are really appreciated.

Cheers,

Karl

    So you mention that you have an ILO 2 on the server. Then that's the solution. It needs to have an IP address that you can access remotely, and even that can be configured from the operating system. The specifics of setting up and provisioning ILO access from the OS depends on the OS itself, and questions about that would be better suited for a different topic altogether.

    Nevertheless, ILO gives full KVM access to the pre-OS environment so that you can get into and modify the BIOS settings. You can even mount an image remotely and flash the BIOS or any pre-boot environment that may be residing on a sub-system of the server, including the ILO/BMC itself.
