 The SMASH interface is spec'd by the DMTF:
  http://www.dmtf.org/standards/smash/

This is what you see when you SSH to iLO.  There are a few legacy commands
(REMCONS, VSP, etc.) but the SMASH stuff is much more comprehensive.

Also, keep in mind that if you remove all power from the server (by yanking
the power cord) that it will cause iLO to power off -- iLO is powered by AUX
power, meaning that it is ON as long as power is applied to the power supply
receptacle.

When iLO first powers on after the power outage, it takes it some time to
regenerate SSL certificates, so it will operate a bit slower during the
certificate regeneration period.
