HP Scripting Toolkit for Windows - Manual (Page 50)

You must then invoke the tool to load the contents of hba.ini input to the HBA NVRAM: hpqlarep
/l hba.ini.
Using HPONCFG
HP offers support for the iLO features available on HP ProLiant servers with the HPONCFG utility.
HPONCFG is an online configuration tool used to set up and reconfigure iLO without requiring a
reboot of the server operating system. The utility runs in a command-line mode and must be executed
from an operating system command line.
HPONCFG enables you to initially configure features exposed through the RBSU or iLO. This utility
is not intended for continued administration. CPQLOCFG should be used for ongoing administration
of user rights and network functionality on the server.
Before using HPONCFG, the iLO Management Interface Driver must be loaded on the server.
HPONCFG displays a warning if the driver is not installed.
For more information, see the HP iLO website at http://www.hp.com/go/ilo .
Also, see the HP iLO 4 Scripting and Command Line Guide (for Gen8 servers) on the HP website
at
http://www.hp.com/go/proliantgen8/docs or the HP ProLiant Integrated Lights-Out 3 v1.20
Scripting and Command Line Guide (for G7 servers) on the HP website at www.hp.com/go/ilo .
HPONCFG command-line syntax
hponcfg [-help][-?][-reset][-f filename][-l filename]
[-w filename][-get_hostinfo][-m firmwarelevel]
IMPORTANT: Because the -w argument does not capture certain types of information, such as
the administrator password, data files created with HPONCFG using the -w argument cannot then
be used as input files for HPONCFG, unless they are modified first.
HPONCFG command-line arguments
Description Command-line argument
