Your customer wants to optimize GenlO servers for a virtualization workload by configuring all of them with a specific workload profile in the BIOS. All of the servers are managed using HPE OneView.
How can this task be completed?
Which iL0 parameter can be configured using HPE OneView server profile?
In HPE OneView, you can configure the iLO Federation Group parameter using a server profile. This setting allows you to assign the server's iLO to a specific federation group, enabling features like group power control and firmware updates across multiple servers. By configuring this parameter within the server profile, you ensure consistent iLO settings across all servers that use that profile.
Option A (Correct): iLO Federation Group can be set in the server profile to organize iLOs into groups for collective management.
Option B: The iLO firmware repository is managed separately and is not configured via server profiles.
Option C: Active Directory integration is a global setting configured at the appliance level, not per server profile.
Option D: Access to the remote console is managed via iLO user permissions, not directly through server profiles.

How is HPE Storage Integration Pack for VMware vCenter deployed?
The HPE Storage Integration Pack for VMware vCenter is deployed as a virtual appliance to the supported hypervisor. This means it is delivered as a pre-configured virtual machine image that you import into your VMware environment. Deploying it as a virtual appliance simplifies installation and integration, allowing for seamless management of HPE storage resources directly within VMware vCenter.
HPE OneView documentation states that the integration pack is provided as a virtual appliance for deployment on supported hypervisors, enhancing storage management within VMware environments.
