Powershell Set-HPiLONetworkSetting returns "Error: Line #5: syntax error near "ILO_NIC_AUTO_DELAY""

[MarcVDH]

Hello,

When trying to do simple tasks like setting up the ILO DNSname or the ILO primary DNS server, the set-HPiLONetworkSetting command always returns Error: Line #5: syntax error near "ILO_NIC_AUTO_DELAY".

I am using the latest ILO cmdlets v1.4.0.1
The commands that I am launching are these :
Set-HPiLONetworkSetting -Server $ILOip -Username xxxxx-Password xxxxx -DisableCertificateAuthentication -DNSName $ILOname
Set-HPiLONetworkSetting -Server $ILOip -Username xxxxx-Password xxxxx -DisableCertificateAuthentication -PrimDNSServer $DNSip

Doing a  Get-HPiLONetworkSetting gives me this :

No ILO_NIC_AUTO_DELAY parameter can be found.
In the end I tried to flash the ILO firmware, the version I had was 2.0 and it is now 2.5.
If I try again, I can see the ILO_NIC_AUTO_DELAY paramter and the cmdlet to configure the network settings works correctly.

Here is the same command with the new firmware :

Isn't it a bug with the cmdlet as there is no firmware prerequisite to use these cmdlets and they should be compatible with ILO 3 and 4 ?

Hi,

This is a known issue in 1.4.0.1 of iLO cmdlets and it got fixed in 1.4.0.2 hotfix that we provided recently.

Please upgrade to new hotfix version as this was the issue on iLO3 fw version where "ILO_NIC_AUTO_DELAY" was getting added automatically in Set-HPiLONetworkSetting cmdlet which was not supported in iLO3 FW version.

Thanks,

Gokul
