DL gen10 - conrep error

[andy_msc]

Hi,

I'm in the middle of testing the current scripting tools on a new DL360 Gen10.

I'm running CentOS7 and installed the following rpms:
hp-health-10.80-1855.21.rhel7.x86_64.rpm
hponcfg-5.3.0-0.x86_64.rpm
hp-scripting-tools-11.20-2.rhel7.x86_64.rpm
ssacli-3.30-14.0.x86_64.rpm
ssaducli-3.30-14.0.x86_64.rpm
storcli-1.24.09-1.noarch.rpm

I'm trying to capture the BIOS settings with conrep -s -f uefi.cfg

But I get the following error:

ERROR: Unable to open CHIF channel for Option Rom operations: 0000000c: All channels are currently in use for the requested priority.

Does anyone know what this is about?
Couldn't find anything with google.
The tools always worked fine on Gen9 servers

I also get an error running hponcfg:

ERROR: CpqCiCreateFunc() 0 time failed.
Driver Error Code:(1,1h).
Driver Error Message: CPQCIDRV driver is not loaded.

ERROR: CpqCiCreateFunc() 1 time failed.

So my guess is I don't have the latest CHIF driver hpilo in my kernel.
I couldn't find anything in the SPP repo.

Where can I get the latest driver for RHEL7?

iLO5 requires a new CHIF driver which is in the kernel, refer to the solution in this  thread https://community.hpe.com/t5/ProLiant-Servers-ML-DL-SL/iLO5-issues-on-Centos-7/td-p/6990073

Also hp-health is not supported on Gen10, use amsd as all the health information is now provided by iLO
