HP iLO information

Hi,

I am trying to write a BigFix fixlet to check for the existance of a file, if it exists, create a copy of it, delete the file and then execute a command to write the HP iLO information out to that file, this is the actionscript I have written but for some reason it doesn’t work:

if (exists file “c:\ilo_config.old.xml”) then (delete “c:\ilo_config.old.xml”)

if (exists file “c:\ilo_config.xml”) then (move “c:\ilo_config.xml” “c:\ilo_config.old.xml”)

dos C:\hp\hpsmh\data\cgi-bin\vcagent\Discovery\HPONCFG.exe /w c:\ilo_config.xml

dos “C:\Program Files\HP\hponcfg\hponcfg.exe” /w c:\ilo_config.xml

Can anyone help me on this?

Thanks

Anthony

When you use relevance expressions in actions, you need to surround them with curly braces instead of parentheses:

if {exists file “c:\ilo_config.old.xml”}

delete “c:\ilo_config.old.xml”}

endif

if {exists file “c:\ilo_config.xml”}

move “c:\ilo_config.xml” “c:\ilo_config.old.xml”

endif

dos C:\hp\hpsmh\data\cgi-bin\vcagent\Discovery\HPONCFG.exe /w c:\ilo_config.xml

dos “C:\Program Files\HP\hponcfg\hponcfg.exe” /w c:\ilo_config.xml

Thanks boyd, that works brilliantly but now I can’t seem to get the information out of the file! I would like to get the IP address from the output file listed below but the file MAY have two different formats (see both below). Any suggestions as to how I could acheive this? I used the following working property relevance for the second file, but try as I have, I cannot get this to work with the first file and I certainly can’t combine them!

node values of attributes of selects “/RIBCL/LOGIN/RIB_INFO/MOD_NETWORK_SETTINGS/IP_ADDRESS” of xml document of file “C:\ilo_config.xml”

I suppose you could do the xml node process, but this relevance seems to work for both file formats:

preceding text of first “%22” of following text of first “= %22” of lines whose(it contains “<IP_ADDRESS VALUE”) of file “c:\ilo_config.xml”

For the other, you could use the version info to help decide which node path to use to filter the data and combine two separate relevances to pull the data. But unless you are going to try to do something a bit more complicated, I don’t see the problem with just using the string match/parse relevance above.
