Ilo Problem

[glmrenard]

Hello Experts,

I have a Proliant Serveur (ML370 G3)
I know its product number(
293765-001) and its serial number but I have lost the paper with the ILO password :((
Is this possible to get a new default password to install ilo without modifying jumper on the server ?
Thanks for answering and have a nice day !

If you already have OS installed:
-install HP Lights-Out Online Configuration Utility for Windows 2000/Server 2003
http://h18013.www1.hp.com/support/files/lights-out/us/download/23416.html
-Use "Administrator_reset_pw.xml- Reset the default administrator account password using HPONCFG" script from
HP Lights-Out XML Scripting Sample for Windows
http://h18023.www1.hp.com/support/files/server/us/download/24181.html
It will reset ILO password to word "password"

Thanks but I use a Fedora Core 3 (Linux) system and I don't found any rpm for this distribution ...

I don't know if HP Lights-Out Online Configuration Utility exists for Fedora.
But if you can reach server physically
you can reboot the server and during boot select "F8" option (something like "Press F8 to configure ILO").
You don't need password to access ILO configuration with "F8" and you can add/remove users in such way...

Hello,

you might have a look at proliant support pack at
http://h18013.www1.hp.com/products/servers/management/psp/index.html

look for rpm matching you distribution.

after installing hprsm and hpsmh
try using hponcfg
hponcfg -f foo
will write actual configuration in foo
edit foo
(you might find admin password in foo)
hponcfg -w foo
will "write" foo to ILO

you don't have to reboot.

be sure to run on the 'right' host !!

Hello all,

thanks for answering, I have used the F8 method and now Ilo works perfectly :)
I tried psp but I had some source location problem.
Thanks again
