 iLO is the management interface used on many HewlettPackard servers. These often allow you to remotely power a machine up or down, and connect to the machine's local console. 
  
 !! Random Notes 
  
-ssh $ilo returns * Received disconnect from ip.ad.dr.ess: 11: Authentication failed*  
- Check if you have several ssh keys in your ssh agent (eg with "<tt>ssh-add -L </tt>"). Each time your agent tries a key that is not in the iLO's list of authorised keys counts as a failure, and after 3 failures it will close the connection. Either install your keys in the iLO's key management system, or run ssh without your ssh-agent (eg with "<tt>SSH_AUTH_SOCK= ssh $ilo</tt>")  
+"<tt> ssh $ilo</tt>" returns "<tt> Received disconnect from ip.ad.dr.ess: 11: Authentication failed</tt>":  
  
-ssh $ilo returns * shell request failed on channel *  
- If you run "<tt>ssh -v $ilo</tt>", you'll see that the last debug message before failing is something like " <tt >debug1: Sending env LANG = en_NZ.UTF-8</tt >". This confuses old versions of the iLO. Workaround it with " <tt >unset LANG; ssh $ilo</tt >", or get and install a newer iLO firmware from the HP website.
