@John Pierce (or anyone else who knows):
Isn't the iLO access on the HP Microservers restricted once an OS is
installed on the device? [0]
I read somewhere about needing to purchase an iLO license to allow full
functionality. I got the impression that the iLO functionality that was
available was really only helpful for installing an OS ... and not for
Serial Over LAN once the OS was installed. (Is that right or wrong?)
Best I recall the author did not mention anything about a RAC card (so it
was not likely that separate part/device).
