ILO Advanced License Retrieval

[chuckk281]

Sarhan had a customer question:

*************

Hello all,

Is there a command line way to retrieve ILO advanced License prior to replacing system board if server is still accessible.

Customer advised that the GUI part is not working. I know we can call HP license to get if need be.

The server in particular is DL Series G7.

Thank you

Input from Dan:

**************

SSH to the iLO and then run:

show /map1 license

You can also SSH in, turn on logging in putty or whatever your SSH tool is, and then run “show -a” to dump everything about that iLO out.  Then you can go back and dig through it if you find a setting missing after the System Board is swapped.

Example:

</>hpiLO-> show /map1 license

status=0

status_tag=COMMAND COMPLETED

/map1

  Properties

    license=3xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxM

  Verbs

    cd version exit show reset set oemhp_ping

</map1>hpiLO->

Actual License masked to protect the guilty
