sample scripts for flashing all Blade iLos at once

Folks,

I cant seem to get the blades iLo's to flash with either the UPDATE ilo commnad or the HPONCFG utility.

I know I am doing something wrong but dont know what! Can someone send some real examples of flashing (to 270. bin)

Thanks,

Fredy,

Hello Fredy,

You can update blade ilo from OA cli by using the following syntax:
UPDATE ILO {ALL | <bay number> [{ , | - } <bay number>]} <url> [TPM_FORCE]

Fo all server syntax will be:
UPDATE ILO ALL <url>
The URL must be formatted as protocol://host/path/file.

You may refer to page 171:
https://support.hpe.com/hpsc/doc/public/display?docId=c00702815

Using HPONCFG:
Run the hponcfg tool from OA CLI to automatically update the ILO firmware of all the Blade servers in C-class enclosure:
hponcfg ALL ftp://<ipaddressFTPserver>/update_firmware.xml

Update_firmware.xml.
<RIBCL VERSION="2.0">
<LOGIN USER_LOGIN="Dontcare" PASSWORD="UsingAutologin">
<RIB_INFO MODE="write">
<UPDATE_RIB_FIRMWARE IMAGE_LOCATION="ftp://<ipaddress FTP server>/ilo2_150.bin"/>
</RIB_INFO>
</LOGIN>
</RIBCL>
end_marker

You can also download the samples for windows from:
