Does anyone know how to query the iLO IP address via WMI?

You can try https://:2381 and get info from ilo agents. I do not think you can get it thru wmi.

Hello JPeppers,

on HP servers you’ll usually have the HP ProLiant support pack installed. There’s a utility called hpdiags.exe(by default in C:\hp\hpdiags), which, when run with no arguments, produces couple of .xml files. Have a look at surveybase.xml. Drill down to:

This is where your iLO IP address lives in

you can also retrieve things like the iLO MAC from there.

As far as I know there’s no WMI provider for the iLO data, so I’m afraid one will have to resort to ugly hack in BF. Then again you can run in only once a week :slight_smile:

I know this post is several years old but I thought I would share my information I put together on HP iLo cards,

I have included 3 files, a Task, Computer Group and an Analysis. The computers become relevant to the group

if there HP’s and have the iLO Management installed, the task creates a file in the hponcfg dir called iLoInfo.xml

if the file does not exists or its more then 7 days old it becomes relevant again. the task can be run as a policy action

to continually update the systems. the information I gather is below

IP_ADDRESS

DHCP_ENABLE

SUBNET_MASK

GATEWAY_IP_ADDRESS

Username Password

DNS Name

Speed Auto Select

NIC Speed

Full Duplex

File Date (iLoInfo.xml)

extract the 3 files from the zip file and import each into BES, you may have to point the task to the imported computer group
