activate UID light from Linux command line

[Chris Nord]

Anybody know if there is a (Ubuntu) command to activate the UID light on a Proliant DL160 G6 server? The is no iLO on the box.

I am running Linux version 2.6.28-18-generic (buildd@yellow) (gcc version 4.3.3 (Ubuntu 4.3.3-5ubuntu4)

hi,

check this docu :

http://www.icare.hp.com.cn/TechCenter_StaticArticle/31754/35002.pdf

section :

The hp Unique Identifier utility (hpuid) allows local manipulation of the ProLiant Unique IDentifier (UID) blue light on selected ProLiant servers. The hpuid utility allows the light to be turned on and off and will display the current status of the light (see Table 3).

As it states (On selected ProLiant servers) I'm not sure the DL160 falls under the list of selected servers. You also need the health driver (hpasm) loaded to use hpuid
