hpsum: how get out of INSTALL state

[Redneck]

I'm trying to use hpsum CLI to downgrade some firmware on a bl870c i2.

How do I get my node out of the INSTALL state and UserActionNeeded_phase?

(this forum interface really sucks: I can't use ctrl-v to paste anything.)

# hpsum inventory --nodes aa.bb.cc.dd --baselines /usr/local/bl870ci2_26.41

Inventory in progress ...

Failed to inventory on node aa.bb.cc.dd. <Cannot perform the operation now. Reason: Node is in INSTALL state and UserActionNeeded phse>

hpsum version: 7.5.1. return code of the above command is 252

I had no trouble with pasting this with firefox.

Looks like Microsoft Edge isn't supported.

I wonder if iLO will ever support Edge...

Closing this since I figured out how to unpack all of the scexe files in the bl8x0ci2 firmware bundles, and how to apply the ilo/system firmware that I want without the use of hpsum.

The iLO (actually, all console interfaces on all hardware platforms) is a special interface that is stuck in time. Occasionally, manufacturers will update console firmware but when and which latest whizzy browser is now popular will be likely not ever be updated. Not unlike JavaJunk where some older disk arrays cannot be managed using the latest Java code, only the old reliable browsers should be used to manage the hardware in a data center. Or better yet, use the command line, sometimes cryptic but doesn't depend on fancy graphics.
