Using HPONCFG on Windows servers

Start the HPONCFG configuration utility from the command line. When using Microsoft® Windows®, cmd.exe is available by selecting Start>Run>cmd. HPONCFG displays a usage page if HPONCFG is entered with no command line parameters. HPONCFG accepts a correctly formatted XML script. Refer to the "Remote Insight Command Language (on page 138)" section for more information on formatting XML scripts. HPONCFG sample scripts are included in the HPONCFG package.

The command line format is:

HPONCFG [ /help /? /m firmwarelevel /reset [/m firmwarelevel] /f filename [/l filename][/xmlverbose or /v][/m firmwarelevel] /w filename [/m firmwarelevel]

/get_hostinfo [/m firmwarelevel] /mouse [/dualcursor][/allusers] ]

Refer to the "HPONCFG command line parameters (on page 135)" section for an explanation of the usage.

Obtaining an entire configuration

HPONCFG can be used to obtain an entire configuration from an iLO management processor or a RILOE

II.In this case, the utility executes from the command line without specification of an input file. The name of the output file is given on the command line. For example:

HPONCFG /w config.xml

In this example, the utility indicated that it obtained the data successfully and wrote it to the output file as requested. The following is a typical example of the contents of the output file:

<HPONCFG VERSION = "1.1">
