The verbose output shown indicates that seven threads are being used for Find-HPiLO, which
lists each address being checked, and then two threads in the Get-HPiLOFirmwareVersion
command. (This threading allows multiple commands to multiple iLOs to be sent at the same time.)
The pipeline then sends to Add-Member twice and for each item adds the –Username and
–Password
parameters to the returned objects that represent the iLOs found.
Those are in turn passed through to Get-HPiLOFirmwareVersion to drive its parameter inputs.
The final results are the firmware version information for the two iLOs found by Find-HPiLO.
Without the –Verbose parameters you would see the Warning line from Find-HPiLO and the
firmware information for the two iLOs found in that range of addresses.

cmdlets
These cmdlets are used to determine the current version of the HPiLOCmdlets module installed and

The Update-HPiLOModuleVersion cmdlet has no parameters. This cmdlet checks the version
number of the installed cmdlets against the version number available for download. If the local
version is the most recent, the output will indicate this.
PS C:\Users\Username> Update-HPiLOModuleVersion
The currently installed version 1.1.0.0 is the most current.
If there is a more recent version available than the one currently installed locally, the output will
