You can try with user/password provided with some HP systems. Maybe hponcfg could help: http://srvops.wordpress.com/2012/02/13/how-to-configure-ilo-from-command-line/

Ok sounds good.
But on this server I have Linux installed.
So how to change and where the ILO settings ?

You can accomplish that with Perl scripting and xml

You can download some script examples from take a look here: Script examples for ILO Script Examples for ILO

Hope this helps.

You have got ILO user and pass?

sorry I cannot find any script from your link....

no, I have no user and no pass.

Try this scripts to reset passwords: http://h20565.www2.hp.com/portal/site/hpsc/template.PAGE/public/kb/docDisplay/?sp4ts.oid=397989&spf_p.tpst=kbDocDisplay&spf_p.prp_kbDocDisplay=wsrp-navigationalState%3DdocId%253Demr_na-c02996384-6%257CdocLocale%253D%257CcalledBy%253D&javax.portlet.begCacheTok=com.vignette.cachetoken&javax.portlet.endCacheTok=com.vignette.cachetoken

If not work, you must to reboot and enter config.

What do you mean when you saying

sorry I cannot find any script from your link....

When I access the link I´m redirected to a HP page with several  link scripts for windows and Linux, when I press one of the links send me to the script page where I can download the script.

not sure what model server you have but is there a plastic tag that slides out from the front of the server?
default ilo info should be there along with server serial number

ok now I have the scripts for windows.
My server has linux installed.
Can I use the scripts also from remote from another server ?

can I use the ADD_USER script ?
Because it ask for a login, but I dont have one.

<LOGIN USER_LOGIN="adminname" PASSWORD="password">

ok this linux is a debian version and I am not very familiar with it.
is it also possible to start the script from a remote windows machine ?

Not remotely, but you can established a remote session, but you need to have access rights to the server.
Access to the server by SSH and follow the steps that I mention on my previous post.
On the Windows machine you will need PuTTy or a similar program.

Let us know.

so when I can connect via ssh to the server I can run the commands, right ?

Yes. Because you are working remotely in the OS console.

The 2nd line from your script shows a user login, but I have no login.
Is it then possible to use this script or do I have to use the reset script ?

Don´t worry with that just copy and paste the lines in the script, you just need to edit the 5º line for the password if you want. If you don't change it the password for administrator will be "mynewpassword".

ok, can I use this script also for ilo version 3 ?
Because I wrote I have HP ILO 3.

Yes.
But when you run step 1 and you don´t obtain any response you will need to install hpconfig RPM for Linux, Hponcfg ships in the ProLiant Support Pack (PSP) or you could try download it here SmartStart Scripting Toolkit Linux Edition

Confused.
When I connect via SSH, can I start your script or do I have to do more ?

If you are connected to the server by SSH a command shell appear, right?
Then follow the steps that I mention on a previous post.

On the SSH command line issue the following commands:
1. To check if the package is already installed or not using the below command.
 # rpm -qf /sbin/hponcfg
 hponcfg-1.x.x-x -> you will see a response similar to this if you have the package installed

 2.List/Check the content of the package
 # rpm -ql hponcfg-1.x.x-x
 /sbin/hponcfg

Then you will need to create the XML file, for that you can do it by vi or nano in Linux.
So again in your SSH command line issue the following:

 vi passwd_reset_ilo.xml

Then past the code and save the file, after this on SSH your command line issue the following command.
  hponcfg -f passwd_reset_ilo.xml -l log.txt

If a succeed message appears you are ready to go.

Do you have these commands also for DEBIAN LINUX ?

What commands, the sintax is similar for all Linux distros.

 Are you having issues?
If you are can you tell us what they are?

the rpm command is a REDHAT command not debian.

I also advise to take a look here for HP support on Debian OS.

ok thanks
