Reboot ILO with hponcfg

[trevrobwhite]

Hi all,

I'm hoping someone can help, i've configured my ILO user/password + IP address using hponcfg (included below details for the board), however to activate the new IP address I know I need to reboot the ILO processor, does anyone know the RIBCL to reboot the ILO processor only, the only commands I can find reset the processor which completely wipes it which is not what I want, I want the new IP address activiated.

Many thanks.

Here are the scripts you can give to hponcfg with the /f switch to change the password and IP address:

Change Administrator or User password

<RIBCL VERSION="2.0">
  <LOGIN USER_LOGIN="administrator" PASSWORD="XXXX">
  <RIB_INFO MODE="write">
    <RESET_RIB/>
  </RIB_INFO>
  </LOGIN>
</RIBCL>

Replace administrator with another user if needed, and XXXX with the password you want to use

Change IP Address details:

<RIBCL VERSION="2.1">
    <LOGIN USER_LOGIN=”user” PASSWORD=”password”>
        <RIB_INFO MODE=”WRITE” >
            <MOD_NETWORK_SETTINGS>
                <IP_ADDRESS VALUE = "0.0.0.0"/>
                <SUBNET_MASK VALUE = "255.255.255.0"/>
                <GATEWAY_IP_ADDRESS VALUE = "0.0.0.0"/>
                <PRIM_DNS_SERVER value = "0.0.0.0"/>
                <SEC_DNS_SERVER value = "0.0.0.0"/>
                <DHCP_ENABLE VALUE = "N"/>
                <DNS_NAME VALUE = "ILO"/>
                <DOMAIN_NAME VALUE = ""/>
                <TER_DNS_SERVER value = "0.0.0.0"/>
                <PRIM_WINS_SERVER value = "0.0.0.0"/>
                <SEC_WINS_SERVER value = "0.0.0.0"/>
                <STATIC_ROUTE_1 DEST = "0.0.0.0" GATEWAY = "0.0.0.0"/>
                <STATIC_ROUTE_2 DEST = "0.0.0.0" GATEWAY = "0.0.0.0"/>
                <STATIC_ROUTE_3 DEST = "0.0.0.0" GATEWAY = "0.0.0.0"/>
            </MOD_NETWORK_SETTINGS>
        </RIB_INFO>
    </LOGIN>
</RIBCL>

Change details as needed
