Advanced IPMI util usage on Windows
Use the Windows IPMI util application for remote IPMI access to iLO. The commands, although
different, provide similar functionality.
• To retrieve the general status of iLO, enter:
C:\> ipmiutil.exe health -N IP ADDRESS -J 3 -U user name -P Password
• To power the HP ProLiant server on, enter:
C:\> ipmiutil.exe reset -u -N IP ADDRESS -J 3 -U user name -P
Password
• To power the HP ProLiant server off, enter:
C:\> ipmiutil.exe reset -d -N IP ADDRESS -J 3 -U user name-P Password
• To turn on the HP ProLiant server UID, enter:
C:\> ipmiutil.exe led -i5 -N IP ADDRESS -J 3 -U user name -P Password
NOTE: The IPMI util application only enables turning on the UID for five seconds. To keep
the UID light on persistently, the IPMI util needs to be scripted in a loop with a four second
delay.
