Difficulty Changing iLO Hostname Using Redfish API

Harrry — Wed, 26 Apr 2023 04:06:04 GMT

I have been attempting to change the hostname of my iLO server using the Redfish API, but have encountered significant difficulties. Despite following the documentation provided by HPE, I have been unable to successfully update the hostname through the API. I have tried multiple methods and have even reached out to HPE's technical support for assistance, but have not received a satisfactory resolution. The lack of clear documentation and the difficulty in implementing this seemingly simple task has been frustrating and time-consuming. As a customer, I expect better support and more straightforward processes from HPE, especially for basic functions like changing the hostname.

Hi,

Can you please mention the following:
Server model
BIOS version
iLO FW version
Redfish API version if any
Any error message or code when you execute the Redfish script/command

On HPE Gen10 and Gen10 Plus Systems, iLO 5 May Not Save Redfish Subscriptions

Thank You!
