A single word	`cat`	Topics that contain the word "cat". You will also find its grammatical variations, such as "cats".
A phrase. You can specify that the search results contain a specific phrase.	`"cat food"` (quotation marks)	Topics that contain the literal phrase "cat food" and all its grammatical variations. Without the quotation marks, the query is equivalent to specifying an OR operator, which finds topics with one of the individual words instead of the phrase.

iLO integration

MBC includes integration with the HPE Integrated Lights-Out 2, 3 and 4 (iLO2, iLO3, iLO4) Standards. This increases the level of control that SA has over servers, down to the level where the users no longer have to even power on the servers. When the user provides an iLO IP and credentials, MBC will connect to the iLO API and automatically power on the server. iLO also provides more thorough hardware discovery.

Table 14 show the special attributes used for iLO Integration.

Table 14. iLO Special Attributes
Special Attribute	Description
`ilo.hostname`	Hostname or IP address for the iLO. This must be accessible from the `hub` server. This value is stored as a custom attribute by MBC.
`ilo.username`	Username to use to authenticate to the iLO. This value is stored as a custom attribute by MBC.
`ilo.password`	Password used to authenticate to the iLO. This value is not stored as a custom attribute by MBC.
`ilo.reboot_if_on`	Default: power the server on only if it is currently off. If you specify this argument with a non-null value, MBC reboots the server, even if it's already on. This value is not stored as a custom attribute by MBC.

The first page of the Web APX has form inputs for the iLO parameters.

The following is an example CSV that will cause MBC to boot/reboot the server:

00-13-21-DD-DD-24,pxe_image=linux,sequence_id=310001, dhcp.hostname=danube,ilo.hostname=10.128.32.102, ilo.username=Administrator,ilo.password=adminpass, ilo.reboot_if_on=1
