schoondoggy 785 Posted September 2, 2013 We should start a iLo thread or perhaps a remote monitoring thread. Thanks for the find, I ordered one, for $42 its worth the risk. It is the current part number. Normally, advanced is $350-400 and essentials is $100-130. Buy.com US has it for $59; the UK version is more; http://www.play.com/Search.html?searchstring=512485B21&searchsource=0&searchtype=allproducts Several eBay sources for $35; http://www.ebay.com/itm/HP-512485-b21-512519-001ILO-ADV-PK-SGL-SVR-W-1YR-TS-U-/290839114198?pt=COMP_EN_Servers&hash=item43b75cb1d6 Search with 512485B21 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Joe_Miner 254 Posted September 3, 2013 Good idea SchoonDoggy -- I've split this off to it's own thread. There's some additional info on iLO4 at http://homeservershow.com/forums/index.php?/topic/5578-can-you-build-your-own-gen8-equivalent-microserver/page-2#entry67600 also.

mrmellypants 3 Posted September 4, 2013 Hi All, Just a quick update I have cough, cough found a few iLO 2 keys, and they work fine for iLO4, so I suspect the ones of ebay, Amazon etc will be good as well. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ikon 438 Posted September 4, 2013 Not to be critical, but I hope those iLO2 keys are legit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
schoondoggy 785 Posted September 5, 2013 I finally started playing with iLo on the MS G8. Similar to others, with the B120i enabled everything was fine. B120i and a P212 in the system iLo can not find either. I have a ticket open with HP support. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LoneWolf 156 Posted October 29, 2013 My big question is, does anyone know what happens at the end of a year? Do you just lose phone support and updates, or do features you have purchased disable? I'm okay with losing support, but I'd be disappointed if it means losing remote access functionality. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
