HP iLO 3 Scripting and Command Line Guide - Business Support ...

RIBCL
• RESPONSE
This tag name indicates that iLO is sending a response to the previous commands back to the
client application to indicate the success or failure of the commands that have been sent to
iLO.
• STATUS
This parameter contains an error number. The number 0x0000 indicates that no error exists.
• MSG
This element contains a message describing the error that happened. If there is no error, the
No error message appears.
This command is used to start and end an RIBCL session. You can use it only once to start an RIBCL
session, and it must be the first command to display in the script. The RIBCL tags are required to
mark the beginning and the end of the RIBCL document.
For example:
RIBCL parameters
VERSION is a string that indicates the version of the RIBCL that the client application is expecting
to use. The VERSION string is compared to the version of the RIBCL that is expected, and an error
is returned if the string and the version do not match. The preferred value for the VERSION parameter
is 2.0. The VERSION parameter is no longer verified for an exact match; however, this parameter
must not be blank.
RIBCL runtime errors
The possible RIBCL error messages include:
• Version must not be blank.
• RIBCL via IPv6 is not supported.
RIBCL boot order
For iLO3 1.50, the RIBCL interface is not available over IPv6 — only IPv6 configuration and
status using RIBCL over IPv4 is available.
You can modify the boot order using RIBCL. In order to provide this capability, a few tags were
added. the following partial scripts are provided for clarity.
This code modifies EVs to achieve the results shown. The one time boot EV is:
CQTBT1.
This was modified to set the one-time boot and to display the current status. The persistent boot is
accomplished by reading and modifying CQHIPL, and reading CQHNIPL to determine the number
of valid boot devices.
