iLO config using hponcfg?

MGaccess — Wed, 30 Apr 2008 15:37:28 GMT

Hi, I was able to configure my iLO settings on my Windows servers using the hponcfg utility with no reboot required.

Is there a similar utility for Linux (actually ESX server)? I have the 7.91 PSP installed. Any help with syntax would be appreciated as well.

(I've tried to download different things to try, but most of the download links that I find are broken links to hp.com. It looks like HP has reshuffled there download site and didn't leave breadcrumbs - sucks.)

I got it working...

1. Download HP Management Agents 8.0.x or higher for Linux
2. Uninstall current agents - ./installvm_version.sh -uninstall
3. Install new agents - ./installvm_version.sh -install
4. Download hponcfg utility (hponcfg-1.7.0-2.noarch.rpm at the time of writing) and install: rpm -ivh hponcfg-1.7.0-2.noarch.rpm
5. You may need the hp-ilo channel driver. If so, download here and install (8.0.0-144.rhel4 at the time of writing). Install: rpm -ivh hp-ilo-.rpm

6. The hponcfg utility will be installed in the /sbin directory
7. Run your scripts to config iLO: Ex. hponcfg -f add_user.xml

That worked for me - but no guarentees! :-)
