HP iLO 3 Scripting and Command Line Guide

As of release iLO 3 version 1.05, the Virtual Serial Port supports automatically enabling and

disabling software flow control. By default, this behavior is disabled. You can enable this

configuration option using the RIBCL only. To enable this option, execute the following script:

Example:

<RIB_INFO MODE="write">

<MOD_GLOBAL_SETTINGS>

<VSP_SOFTWARE_FLOW_CONTROL value="Yes"/>

</MOD_GLOBAL_SETTINGS>

<RESET_RIB />

</RIB_INFO>

</LOGIN>

</RIBCL>

The VSP_SOFTWARE_FLOW_CONTROL feature is not supported in iLO 3.

MOD_GLOBAL_SETTINGS parameters

The following parameters are optional. If you do not specify a parameter, then the parameter value

for the specified setting is preserved.

NOTE: If any port changes are detected, iLO reboots to apply the changes after the script has

completed successfully.

SESSION_TIMEOUT—Determines the maximum session timeout value in minutes. The accepted

values are 0, 15, 30, 60, and 120. A value of 0 specifies infinite timeout.

F8_PROMPT_ENABLED—Determines if the F8 prompt for ROM-based configuration appears during

POST. The possible values are Yes or No.

HTTP_PORT—Specifies the HTTP port number.

HTTPS_PORT—Specifies the HTTPS (SSL) port number.

REMOTE_CONSOLE_PORT—Specifies the port used for remote console.

MIN_PASSWORD—Specifies how many characters are required in all user passwords. The value

can be from zero to 39 characters.

ILO_FUNCT_ENABLED—Determines if the Lights-Out functionality is enabled or disabled for iLO.

The possible values are Yes or No. This parameter is case insensitive.

VIRTUAL_MEDIA_PORT—Specifies the port used for virtual media.

F8_LOGIN_REQUIRED—Determines if login credentials are required to access the RBSU for iLO.

The possible values are Yes or No.

ENFORCE_AES—Determines if iLO enforces the use of AES/3DES encryption ciphers over the iLO

interface, SSH, and XML connections. The possible values are Yes or No.

NOTE: When enabling AES/3DES, manually close all other GUI, XML, and CLI connections

since remaining sessions may continue to use the non-AES/3DES cipher.

AUTHENTICATION_FAILURE_LOGGING—Specifies logging criteria for failed authentications.

Possible values include:

• 0—Disabled

• 1—Enabled (records every authentication failure)

• 2—Enabled (records every second authentication failure)
