RDP job to update iLo firmware?

[hmafinejad]

I'm sure this has been done, but I'm running into some problems with the RDP job not completing. Would appreciate any tips on how to set up the job properly.

Thanks in advance!

Can you tell us how the job is set up currently?

Hi Steven,

I've created a Install Package Task, and run:
.\lib\software\UltraMaint.1.0\iLo2FW\1.70\cp009856.exe with the /s coomand-line switch. (I've attached the screenshot)

When I run this, I get an "Error 1 installing package" error.

Thanks!

Here's the screenshot of my Task

If you have HP SIM and you ILO's are in SIM then then I use SIM to Upgrade the ilo's

Create custom tool to Update the ilo and point to the bat file

which contains

C:\scripts\Cpqlocfg\cpqlocfg -s %DEVICENAME% -l C:\scripts\Cpqlocfg\logs\FW\%DEVICENAME%log.txt -f C:\scripts\Cpqlocfg\Update_Firmware.xml



You also need to download HP Lights-Out XML Scripting Sample for Windows on the SIM Server

Does the ILO FW get installed or does it just fail?

I've built some jobs with "non-supported" packages and the job fails but gets the packages installed anyway.

What you need to do in that case is to add your own return codes. For example error 1. This is if you press next from your screenshot above.

you enter code:1 Response:Continue Result:success Status:Success

Then the job will not fail...
