Sure, I can manually run the Lights-Out Migration utility, but I want this process completely automated when my team builds new servers. I already have a script that automates every other aspect of the iLO configuration, including LO hostname (it's based off the server's hostname).
Sifting through the sample scripts, I found a way to auto-configure the directory settings on the board, but that doesn't seem very useful if I still have to use the migration utility.
What am I missing?
Solved! Go to Solution.

Re: Automatic AD LO processor object creation
The HP Directory Schema Information Booklet describes in detail all of the LOM objects used by iLO in the directory:
http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/DocumentIndex.jsp?contentType=SupportManual&locale=en_US&docIndexId=179166&taskId=101&prodTypeId=15351&prodSeriesId=397989
The standard is to create a unique LOM object for each iLO processor. The LOM object lists applicable LOM roles, although a unique role is not required for each object.
Technically, you could point all of the iLO processors at the same LOM object. The consequence of this is that all iLO processors would be treated identically, and it might not make sense across directory partitions. Furthermore, it could break the assumed model if changes or enhancements are introduced in the future.

Re: Automatic AD LO processor object creation
I didn't realize I could assign more than one iLO board to a single AD processor object. So I made one for each site here, and since my "package" for setting up the Lights-Out cards is already site-aware, it associates the iLO board with the appropriate processor object.
I've tested it by resetting an iLO card to manufacturer defaults, then rebuilding the server it was in.
Now all Lights-Out configuration is 100% automated! Thank you!

SolutionIn the HP Directories Support package, a utility called HPQLOMGC.exe is installed and documented in a PDF.
The utility is a command-line version of the directory migration utility that is intended for scripted directory deployments. I am sure that this can be used to create the proper LOM objects in the directory.

Re: Automatic AD LO processor object creation
If you still want to programatically create objects, you could always generate your xml file with a simple batch script. For example:
set Config_File="%Temp%\iLOConfig.xml"
echo ^
The carats (^) are escape characters in batch, telling the echo statement to echo the < instead of treating it as a redirect.

Re: Automatic AD LO processor object creation
1) browse to http://www.hp.com/servers/lights-out
2) pick an iLO product
3) pick "Software and Drivers"
4) pick your OS (such as Windows Server 2003) and click "locate software"
For scripting documentation and examples, get: HP Lights-Out XML Scripting Sample for Windows
For configuration from Windows to the iLO processor in the same host, get: HP Lights-Out Online Configuration Utility for Windows 2000/Windows Server 2003
For configuration from Windows to lights-out processors over the network, get: HP Lights-Out Configuration Utility
There is also support for Linux.

Re: Automatic AD LO processor object creation
"File or assembly name NetworkUtils, or one of its dependencies, was not found."
Anyone have an idea as to where the error is coming from? Is it coming from my xml file or from the initial command line?
Any help would be appreciated...
Thanks,
