hi im currently using integrated lights out 2 on a hp integrity rx 2660. the status summary of the iLo is as follows:

iLOMP: f.02.25

system firmware: rom a 04. 11, rom b 04.11, boot rom a

currently im using this command to power on /off and restart this machine:

ipmitool -H host -P mypasswordpower cycle.

i would like to change the password "mypassword" . how can i do so?

Hi,

please check the IPMItool website at http://ipmitool.sourceforge.net/index.html for command usage details.

Example of how to change lan IPMI password to mynewpassword:
ipmitool -I lan -H host -P mypassword lan set 1 password "mynewpassword"

Kind Regards

Holger
