HP 232664-006 HP Lights-Out directory package, Hpqlomig operation, Finding management processors

6.Create a role for the users of the management processor using the HP Lights-Out management snap- in.

HP Lights-Out directory package

All of the migration software, as well as the schema extender and management snap-ins, are packaged together in an HP Smart Component. To complete the migration of your management processors, the schema must be extended and the management snap-ins must be installed before the migration tool is run. The Smart Component can be found on the HP Lights-Out management website (http://www.hp.com/servers/lights-out).

To install the migration utilities, click LDAP Migration Utility in the Smart Component. A Microsoft® MSI installer is launched, which installs HPQLOMIG, HPQLOMGC, required DLLs, the license agreement, and other files into the C:\Program Files\Hewlett-Packard\HP Lights-Out Migration Tool directory. You can select a different directory. A sample XML file is also installed, and a shortcut to HPQLOMIG is created on the Start menu.

NOTE: The installation utility will present an error message and exit if it detects that the .NET Framework is not installed.

HPQLOMIG operation

The command line utility is intended to be used in conjunction with Systems Insight Manager. If you are not using Systems Insight Manager, consider using the HPQLOMIG utility.

IMPORTANT: Installing directory support for any management processor requires downloading the HP Smart Component. Refer to the "Pre-migration checklist (on page 113)" and the "HP Lights-Out directory package" sections for additional information. Extending the schema must be completed by a Schema Administrator.

HPQLOMIG requires logon and upgrade firmware privileges for each management processor. Change directory setting privileges are required for directory services.

Finding management processors

The first step to migrating is discovering all the management processors you want directory services enabled. You can search for management processors using DNS names, IP addresses, or IP address wildcards. Address field variables must follow these rules:

•DNS names, IP addresses, and IP address wildcards must be delimited with a semicolon.

•The IP address wildcard uses the "*" character in the third and fourth octet fields. For example, IP address 16.100.*.* is valid, whereas IP address 16.*.*.* is not.

•Ranges can be specified using a hyphen. For example, 192.168.0.2-10 is a valid range. A hyphen is supported only in the rightmost octet.

•After you click Find, HPQLOMIG begins pinging and connecting to port 443 (the default SSL port). The purpose of these actions is to quickly determine if the target network address is a management processor. If the device does not respond to the ping or connect appropriately on port 443, then it is determined not to be a management processor.
