Aah, here we go again. I still haven't figured out how to use the iLO remote console.
I have tried ssh towards the iLO IP address and get no connection. I have tried telnet towards the iLO IP address and get a weird /./-> prompt. Can I do anything useful with it? I have tried http towards the iLO IP address and get the server virtual power controls, etc, rather flashy, can remote power on, watch temperature sensors. Cool. But no console. You (or someone) just briefly mentioned Esc-Q. Where is it used?
