Problem with ilo2 and DL380 G6 and power on

Here is my situation, i have 2 old DL380 G6 which i use to run some of my VM Admin stuff like Log Insight etc.
I upgraded the Ilo 2 to version 2.33 03/20/2018

So far so good, i used the ILO to reboot my system and now its stuck in the Standby mode. If i SSH to Ilo and do

</>hpiLO-> power

power: server power is currently: Off

but if i now go and do 

</>hpiLO-> power on

Server power already On

tried rebooting Ilo and all but no luck. Short of driving to datacenter how can i get server out of standby ?

Re: Problem with ilo2 and DL380 G6 and power on

type 'power help' to get all the power command options

You might try 'power reset' or maybe use the CLP commands listed in the help syntax.

Re: Problem with ilo2 and DL380 G6 and power on

I tried every command under the power option like power off, power reset etc. every time I issue power on it tells me power is already on and does nothing. I even reset the ilo with no luck. What’s the CLP I may ask without sounding like a fool

Re: Problem with ilo2 and DL380 G6 and power on

power

The power command is used to change the power state of the server and is limited to users
with the Power and Reset privilege.

— power – Displays the current server power state
— power on – Turns the server on
— power off – Turns the server off
— power reset – Resets the server (server power off followed by server power on)
— power warm – Warm boots the server

Instead of using the simple commands, the following examples show the new CLP format:

◦ start /system1 – Turns the server on
◦ stop /system1 – Turns the server off
◦ reset /system1 – Resets the server
◦ reset /system1 hard – Performs a coldstart reboot of the server
◦ reset /system1 soft – Performs a warmstart reboot of the server
◦ show /system1 enabledstate – Shows the current power state, for which enabled is powered on and disabled is powered off.

Re: Problem with ilo2 and DL380 G6 and power on

Thanks for the info but it does not solve my issue as these commands return the same thing.

When i try to power on it says it is already on

</>hpiLO-> start /system1
status=2
status_tag=COMMAND PROCESSING FAILED
error_tag=COMMAND ERROR-UNSPECIFIED
Server power already on.

 </>hpiLO-> stop /system1
status=0
status_tag=COMMAND COMPLETED
Power-Off signal sent to host server.

 </>hpiLO->

</>hpiLO-> start /system1
status=2
status_tag=COMMAND PROCESSING FAILED
error_tag=COMMAND ERROR-UNSPECIFIED
Server power already on.

Sorry that didn't help, the host could be in some state where you need to remove power to reset everything
