Configuring ILO from the commandline

I just got an interesting question from a colleague. He wanted to know if it was possible to configure ILO from the command line. A quick google search came with an interesting link:

So the quick answer is "yes". You do need to have the HP Proliant Support Pack installed, but when you have it, it's under C:\Program Files\HP\hponcfg. There is also a gui version, in that directory, to make things even easier: hponcfg_gui.exe

Want to do it for Linux? Possible too!

Look for the "HP Lights-Out Online Configuration Utility for Linux"on that page.

You're welcome.
