If you change it, make sure you note where you install it since you’ll need it later. exe will most probably installed by default into the folder “c:\Program Files \HP Lights-Out Configuration Utility”. It possible that the link will be changed in future, since this happends a lot on the HPE website, but a quick google search on “HPQLOFCG.EXE”, will probably help you as well. Quite handy skillset to have as an IT consultant 😉.įirst download the “Lights-Out Configuration Utility (HPQLOCFG.EXE)” from the HPE server. So here a quick post, on how you can use the Command Line to connect and retrieve info from the ILO’s of HP servers. This was also the case with one of my customers, from which we wanted to retrieve the license keys to reuse in other servers. Command line and scripting tools always have been a nice way to automate things or to retrieve valuable information that can’t be found in the GUI. Sometimes, you want to have more info then the GUI shows you, or you want to create or change configuration on loads of different servers, and clicking is not the fastest way.
