Blade Watch

I got sent a private tweet asking if applying a license to your ilo requires a reboot of the server or the ilo. It doesn’t.

The ilo license is used to enable the console view option and extra features, it’s a license key of about 12 digits (maybe a few more, memory fails me as I’m on the train going home). Anyway, you go into the ilo administration tab, under that there’s an ilo licensing section, you enter the key press apply and that’s it! The console option will work immediately.

There is a key for each ilo license purchased, if I remember correctly it was included with blades, but I think extra with standard rack servers.

Thanks for the tweet!
