Notes -

IMPORTANT: After upgrading to the ProLiant ML110 G2 BMC Firmware v1.23 
           the BMC may not be recognized during POST when connecting the server 
           to AC power and immediately powering on.  Upgrading the ML110 G2 system ROM 
           to version 1.12 or later will prevent this issue.

           as LO100 technology previews with this firmware release. This allows customers 
           to evaluate and use these features at no extra charge for an unlimited timeframe 
           on ProLiant ML110 G2 servers.

	   None.


Problems Fixed -


        ProLiant ML110 G2 Lights-Out 100i Ver. 1.23
        ===========================================

           
	1) Added improved error checking when flashing firmware using a TFTP server.  
	   Flash mode will not be entered if an invalid or missing filename is specified 
	   when using a TFTP server to flash firmware.

	2) Resolved an issue with the SMASH CLP "oemhp_dhcp_enable" field 
	   displaying incorrect values.

	3) Removed the SMASH CLP "reset" verb from the CLP target directories.

	4) Changed the SMASH CLP command prompt to "/./->".

	5) Resolved an issue where the server would not PXE boot 
	   with the Lights-Out 100 card present.

	6) Resolved an issue where the IPMI session privilege level 
	   was getting limited to "user".  This could prevent customers 
	   from executing some commands such as power down.


Known Problems -
 
	   Lights-Out 100 connections intermittently drop when using Windows 2003 EMS.   
	   This will be fixed in an upcoming maintenance release.
