This Softpaq is used for remote iLO firmware update via the iLO web-based interface or the iLO XML scripting process. New features - No new features are implemented with this firmware release. Problems fixed from last release - 1. Corrected I2C transaction issues to assist manufacturing. a) problem in factory programming of EEPROM. b) iLO may incorrecly store the system Serial Number (SN) when the host's version of the Serial Number is changed. This problem may be exhibited after changing the host Serial Number. 2. Corrected Ethernet session detection routines for automated factory testing. {SP25781 (1.60)} 1. Support for the iLO Shared Network Port on the DL360 G4, ML370 G4, and DL380 G4. 2. Support for Secure Shell (SSH). Note: After upgrading to iLO 1.60, a SSH connection will not be available for approximately 30 minutes while the key generation occurs. This is a one time delay. Supports OpenSSH & PuTTY clients. 3. Virtual Media Enhancements including: Support for scriptable virtual media access, CD-ROM images support, composite device (floppy and CD-ROM) support Scriptable virtual media allows the user to connect/disconnect the virtual media devices via XML tools or the CLI. The virtual floppy images and ISO 9660 CD images are served from Windows IIS or Apache servers on the iLO management network. The virtual media applet can now use ISO 9660 formatted images as the source of the virtual media CD-ROM. Composite device support allows the virtual media floppy and CD-ROM drive to be connected simultaneously from the Virtual Media applet. 4. Support for a command line interface (CLI) which is accessible using SSH and telnet on the iLO management network or using the host serial port where supported. The CLI allows you to: view and manipulate the virtual power controls view and manipulate the unit ID (UID) invoke the text console or virtual serial console generate non-maskable interrupts (NMI) if needed iLO Advanced users can view and manipulate virtual media 5. Support for new & updated XML commands. See the User Guide for complete details. Enclosure static IP for select BL p-series servers Scripted virtual media operations Enhanced virtual power button control Configure the Shared Network Port Serial CLI support SSH support RBSU/iLO IP support 6. Added text to the login screen to indicate current user authentication method, directory and/or local user. 7. Support for Mozilla 1.6. 8. Support for displaying the iLO IP address during POST. {SP25040 (1.55)} 1. Addressed ROM POST issue on the ML370 G4 when using a USB keyboard & mouse. 2.
