curl to set ilo user's minimum password length NOT working

DenYeo — Wed, 26 May 2021 11:06:07 GMT

I am trying to change the ilo user's minimum password length by running this curl command:

# curl -s -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST --data '{"Oem": { "Hpe": {"MinPasswordLength": "11"} }}' https://<iloHostname>/redfish/v1/accountservice/ -u <ilousername>:<ilopasswd> --insecure

But i gotten this instead:

{"error":{"code":"iLO.0.10.ExtendedInfo","message":"See @Message.ExtendedInfo for more information.","@Message.ExtendedInfo":[{"MessageArgs":["Action"],"MessageId":"Base.1.4.PropertyMissing"}]}}

1) what curl command parameters do i use to view the message extended info to see the detailed error message?

2) How do i set the ilo user's minimum password length using the curl command?

Found out that i should use PATCH instead of POST.

But i would still like to know:

1) what curl command parameters do i use to view the message extended info to see the detailed error message?

so that i would know how to better troubleshoot.
