How to Get all ILO IPs ?

curious — Mon, 20 Mar 2006 21:54:00 GMT

Hello !

I am trying to get all the ip addresses in a network.
I read a little about this and as far as I see there are many ways to achieve this.

Reading this Thread : http://forums1.itrc.hp.com/service/forums/questionanswer.do?threadId=453732
**********************************
snmputil walk ServerName Communitystring .1.3.6.1.4.1.232.9.2.5.1.1.5

Results would be similar to this

Variable = .iso.org.dod.internet.private.enterprises.232.9.2.5.1.1.5.2
Value = IpAddress 192.168.0.2

So from there you could parse the output and match up the ip.

The rib name OID is

.iso.org.dod.internet.private.enterprises.232.9.2.5.1.1.14.2
**********************************

-What's OID ?
-By doing the snmpwalk, Do I need the proliant to be powered up with OS loaded ( I mean drivers ) or not ?

I also saw the HPONCFG Utility, but let's assume I am not able ( don't have the right permissions ) yet.

Also there's a way with Insight Manager, I have access to an Insight Manager 7 Server :
I ran a query selecting "All Management Processors" and also another called "Integrated Lights-Out(iLO)"
And did found a lot of them, but I am not sure if these are all of the ILOs. ( I understand that the information on Insight Manager depends on the Remote Insight Agents on the ilo server side but there are some servers that don't have them ).
-By the way - If I run an automatic discovery, and all the agents are up and running, would the ilo server appear at the insight manager query ? ( I mean, isn't there any other configuration or setting ? )

Is there any certain way to find out how many servers have and iLO ? and if it's possible the IP Address or the Servername.

Thanks in advance,

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
1.-What's OID ?

ANSWER:
OID is called object Identifier.
The OID identifies a managed object uniquely in the MIB.

The OID .iso.org.dod.internet.private.enterprises.232.9.2.5.1.1.14.2 corresponds
to iLO Name/IP address.

2.-By doing the snmpwalk, Do I need the proliant to be powered up with OS loaded
( I mean drivers ) or not ?

ANSWER:
The Proliant need to be powered up with OS loaded.
Also Please ensure that HP Insight Server Agents are up and running on
the host server.

3.By the way - If I run an automatic discovery, and all the agents
are up and running, would the ilo server appear at the insight manager query ?
( I mean, isn't there any other configuration or setting ? )

ANSWER:
Yes.
SNMP settings need to be configured properly on both HP SIM and HOST server
where iLO resides.
Please ensure SNMP community string is specified as "public" on both HP-SIM
side and Host server side.
