Automating iLO Configuration with Rest calls?

strecksh — Fri, 26 Jun 2020 13:59:47 GMT

Hello, I need to update the iLO information for a couple hundred servers. This involves changing the iLO IP address, eth address, and name of the server. I have been doing this one by one manually but I started talking to someone in the HPCM division and they said they use rest calls to automate setting up nodes. They weren't sure if you could use rest calls to set the parameters I mentioned above, so that's why I am asking here. Thanks

What are you looking to set.

Personally I use a mix of Powershell - https://www.powershellgallery.com/packages/HPEiLOCmdlets/3.0.0.0

and the HP Lights-Out Configuration Utility https://support.hpe.com/hpsc/swd/public/detail?swItemId=MTX_8abe539b67bf46978e8f84acb8

Hello,

it will be good if you can share us more information about your activity

is it new setup you need to configure the iLO ? if yes there is no option to configure the iLO automatical from remote server.

there is CLI command you can grab the iLO information below is the lin.
