Launch applications with HP SIM custom tools
Use custom tools in HP SIM to combine RIBCL, HPQLOCFG, and system collection to manage
Group Administration of iLO devices. Custom tools are executed on the CMS and on target systems.
You can create a remote tool that runs on selected target systems, and even schedule its execution.
For more information about custom tools, see the HP SIM help.
Batch processing using HPQLOCFG
Group Administration is also delivered to iLO through batch processing. The components needed
for batch processing are HPQLOCFG, an RIBCL file, and a batch file.
The following example shows a sample batch file used to perform the Group Administration for
iLO:
REM Updating the HP Integrated Lights-Out 3 board
REM Repeat line for each board to be updated
