How to use openssl to generate key pair for SSL.

How can you import a key pair into the ilo.

Does the import_cert.xml from the hpqlocfg.exe and locfg.pl take the private keys?

I did find this article, but was having issues with windows hpqlocfg.exe the locfg.pl I am also experinces unknown errors..

iLO doesn't support importing Private/Public RSA key-pair. See my explanation why it doesn't here:

http://community.hpe.com/t5/Remote-Lights-Out-Mgmt-iLO-2-iLO/Anyway-to-change-the-Subject-Alternative-Name-on-iLo-SSL-Cert/m-p/6845098/highlight/true#M7739

What you need to do is to create your own Private CA then, have each iLO generate a CSR then, get the CSR signed by your CA and finally import the signed SSL certificates back into that iLO. The article in the link you posted has a very interesting way to script all of this.
