After the ROMPaq utility flashes the selected device, cycle pwer manually t rebt the perating system. Remtely updating the firmware Use the lad cmmand t remtely update the LO100 firmware. The firmware file must be an uncmpressed firmware image file created using the DOS ROMPAQ utility fund n the Lights-Out 100 Firmware Upgrade Diskette Utility, which is available fr dwnlad frm the HP website ( T create an uncmpressed image file, enter the fllwing cmmand at the DOS prmpt: ROMPAQ /D <infile> <utfile> where <infile> is the ROMPAQ firmware image file and <utfile> is the file name fr the uncmpressed binary image file. Fr example: ROMPAQ /D cpqq0801.d14 ldrimage.bin ROMPAQ Firmware Upgrade Utility, Versin 5.02 (R) Cpyright (c) Hewlett-Packard Crpratin, Input file: CPQQ0801.D14 Output file: LDRIMAGE.BIN The lad cmmand is used t retrieve a binary image frm a specific surce lcatin (specified as a URL) and place it at the specified target address. The lad cmmand can dwnlad and flash an ldr firmware image file using TFTP frm the specified lcatin. T flash the firmware using TFTP settings: On Windws : a. Cpy the BMC firmware int a directry n the server. b. Run TFTP by launching the executable file tftpd32.exe. c. Navigate t TFTP cnfiguratin>settings, and set Timeut t 4 secnds and Max Retransmit t 10. d. Enter the Base Directry and TFTP Server IP Address. Base Directry is the path where the BMC firmware is residing. TFTP Server IP Address is the IP address f the TFTP server (fr example, ). On Linux: Cnfiguratin 16

17 a. Navigate t Applicatins>Systems Settings>Server Settings>Services and make sure that TFTP and xinetd are running. b. Open the /etc/xinetd.d/tftp file and mdify the parameter server_args t include -T Fr example, server_args = -c -s /tftpbt -T c. If a firewall is enabled, disable it r mdify the settings t allw the firewall t cnnect t the TFTP prt. T change the firewall settings, navigate t Applicatins>System Settings>Security Level, and enter 69:udp in the parameter f the ther prt. T update the firmware, lg in t LO100 as the administratr thrugh the CLP interface, and issue the lad cmmand t uplad and install the firmware frm the map1/firmware directry. 1. Start a CLP sessin. T access CLP: a. Navigate t Start>All Prgrams>Accessries>Cmmand Prmpt. b. At the cmmand prmpt, enter telnet <IP address>. 2. At the CLP prmpt, enter cd map1/firmware. 3. At the CLP prmpt, enter lad -surce <URI> -emhpfiletype csr where: <URI> is the //<tftp server IP>/<filename> t be dwnladed. <tftp server IP> is the URL r IP address f the TFTP server cntaining the firmware. <filename> is the file name f the image file (LdrImage.bin in this example). Fr example, enter lad -surce // /LdrImage.bin - emhpfiletype csr. The TFTP applicatin might reprt an errr in the early part f the firmware uplad prcess, during the firmware image validatin prcess. An errr des nt necessarily indicate failure f the firmware uplad and des nt prevent successful firmware uplads. A successful firmware uplad typically takes several minutes.

The Lights-Out 100 prvides security fr remte management in distributed IT envirnments by using an industry-standard encryptin prtcl fr data traveling n unsecured netwrks. SSL is available by installing the Lights-Out 100c Remte Management Card r purchasing the Lights-Out 100i Select Pack r the Lights-Out 100i Advanced Pack. Fr mre infrmatin, see "LO100 ptinal features (n page 6)." LO100 cmes preinstalled with a certificate. T install a user-specific certificate, see the ne-time "Imprting a certificate (n page 51)" setup prcedure. If yu cannt access the lgin page, yu must verify the SSL encryptin level f yur brwser is set t 128 bits. The SSL encryptin level within the management prcessr is set t 128 bits and cannt be changed. The brwser and management prcessr encryptin levels must be the same. T use the preinstalled certificate, enter in the address line f the brwser, which uses SSL-encrypted cmmunicatin. Enter t use nn-ssl encrypted cmmunicatin. Using SSH SSH is a telnet-like prgram fr lgging in t and executing cmmands n a remte machine, which includes security with authenticatin, encryptin, and data integrity features. The Lights-Out 100 remte management prcessr can supprt simultaneus access frm tw SSH clients. After SSH is cnnected and authenticated, the cmmand line interface is available. LO100 supprts tw simultaneus SSH cnnectins. SSH is available by installing the Lights-Out 100c Remte Management Card r purchasing the Lights-Out 100i Select Pack r the Lights-Out 100i Advanced Pack. Fr mre infrmatin, see "LO100 ptinal features (n page 6)." LO100 supprts the SSH versin 2 and the fllwing client utilities: PuTTY 0.54 r later. OpenSSH LO100 cmes preinstalled with a certificate. T install a user-specific certificate, see the ne-time "Imprting a certificate (n page 51)" setup prcedure. Using the SSH utility When using a SSH utility t cnnect t a server fr the first time, the utility prmpts yu t accept the server public key, smetimes referred t as a hst key. Accepting this key authrizes the utility t stre a Using LO100 18

T avid this issue and fr best results, HP recmmends using versin 0.54 r later. Using the OpenSSH utility OpenSSH is a free versin f the SSH prtcl available fr dwnlad n the Internet. T start an OpenSSH client in Linux, at the cmmand prmpt enter: ssh -l lginname ipaddress/dns name Using CLP HP has wrked with key industry partners within Distributed Management Task Frce, Inc. t define an industry-standard set f cmmands. The SMASH suite will standardize manageability interfaces fr servers. The Lights-Out 100 remte management prcessr implements the cmmand set defined in the Server Management Cmmand Line Prtcl Specificatin, 1.00 Draft. The CLP replaces the simple CLI that was released previusly and is n lnger supprted. The management prcessr functinality accessible frm the SMASH CLP is a lw-bandwidth interface and prvides similar functinality t the web interface. The CLP is designed fr users wh prefer a nngraphical interface. The CLP is accessible thrugh the fllwing methds: Telnet SSH cnnectin Physical serial prt Using LO100 19

20 CLP syntax LO100 CLP supprts tw simultaneus SSH cnnectins, tw SSH cnnectins and ne telnet cnnectin, r ne SSH cnnectin and tw telnet cnnectins. Yu cannt have mre than tw simultaneus SSH cnnectins and up t three (telnet and SSH) cnnectins at a time. The general syntax f CLP cmmand is: <verb> <target> <ptin> <prperty> Verbs The fllwing verbs are supprted: cd help lad reset set shw start stp exit versin Target The default target is the /. The target can be changed by the cd cmmand r by specifying a target n the cmmand line. Optins The fllwing ptins are valid: -help/-h -all/-a Prperties are the attributes f the target that can be mdified. Output The utput syntax is text. The valid Blean values fr any cmmand are true and false. General ntes If the cmmands n the CLP cmmand span mre than ne line, yu cannt navigate between different lines. Operating system-specific ntes The Micrsft Windws 2000 telnet client des nt supprt the Functins keys F1 thrugh F12, Insert, Hme, and End keys. These keys will nt wrk in a Lights-Out 100 cmmand line sessin. The Backspace key in the Lights-Out 100 CLP implementatin is mapped t the value 0x8. Sme client perating systems, Nvell Linux Desktp and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 Desktp, map the Backspace key t the value 0x7f, which is used fr the Delete key in the Windws telnet client. The Backspace key will nt wrk frm a client frm which it has value f 0x7f. Fr the Linux clients, using the Hme r the End key enables the Lights-Out 100 CLP service t remap the Backspace key t use the value 0x7f, making the key functinal. In the Windws PuTTY client, the Backspace key can be mapped t a value f 0x8 by changing the setting fr Terminal Keybard t Cntrl-H. Using LO100 20

21 Base cmmands The help cmmand displays cntext-sensitive help. Entering help displays all the supprted cmmands. Entering <cmmand> -help displays the help message specific t that cmmand. Help fr verbs Calling help fr a verb returns the general syntax and usage assciated with issuing that verb. Calling help fr a verb that is nt present in the current directry returns an Unsupprted Cmmand message. The fllwing examples are all valid ways t call help fr a verb. /./-> help shw Usage: shw [<target>][<ptins>][<prperties>] /./-> shw -h Usage: shw [<target>][<ptins>][<prperties>] /./-> shw -help Usage: shw [<target>][<ptins>][<prperties>] /./-> Help fr targets Calling help fr a target returns any infrmatin abut the target, and what it cntains. Yu can call help fr any target that is nt cntained in the current directry (help map1 can be called frm system1). /./-> system1 -h Invalid cmmand /./-> system1 -help Invalid cmmand /./-> help system1 Hst System Directry /./-> help map1 Management Service Prcessr Directry /./-> cd system1 /./system1/-> help map1 Management Service Prcessr Directry Help fr prperties Calling help fr a prperty r any ther ptin fr which there is n help infrmatin returns an Unsupprted Cmmand r Invalid cmmand message. Fr example: /./system1/-> shw /./system1 Targets emhp_sensrs emhp_frus cnsle1 led1 Using LO100 21

22 Prperties name=hewlett-packard enabledstate=enabled Verbs cd versin exit shw reset start stp help /./system1/-> help name Unsupprted Cmmand /./system1/-> help enabledstate Unsupprted Cmmand /./system1/-> help prperties Unsupprted Cmmand /./system1/-> name -h Invalid cmmand /./system1/-> The exit cmmand terminates the CLP sessin. The cd cmmand sets the current default target. The cntext wrks similar t a directry path. The rt cntext fr the server and the starting pint fr a CLP system is /. (frward slash perid). By changing the cntext, yu can shrten cmmands. Fr example: The cd cmmand changes the directry. The cd.. cmmand mves up the tree ne directry. The cd myflder cmmand mves t the myflder flder if myflder is in the current directry. The shw cmmand displays values f a prperty r cntents f a cllectin target. Fr example: /./> shw /. Targets system1 map1 Using LO100 22

23 Prperties Verbs cd versin exit shw help The first line f infrmatin returned by the shw cmmand is the current cntext. In the example, /. is the current cntext. Fllwing the cntext is a list f subtargets (Targets) and prperties (Prperties) applicable t the current cntext. The verbs sectin (Verbs) shws which cmmands are available in this cntext. Yu can als specify the shw cmmand with an explicit r implicit cntext and a specific prperty. An explicit cntext is /map1/firmware and is nt dependent n the current cntext. An implicit cntext assumes that the cntext specified is a child f the current cntext. If the current cntext is /map1, then a shw firmware cmmand displays the /map1/firmware data. If a prperty is nt specified, then all prperties are shwn. The lad cmmand mves a binary image frm a URL t the map. The lad cmmand takes a binary image frm a specific surce lcatin (specified as a URL) and places the image at the specified target address. In a remte management prcessr implementatin, the firmware dwnlads a full image file using TFTP frm the specified lcatin and prgrams flash with the image. In a remte management prcessr implementatin, /map1/firmware is a valid target. The lad cmmand supprts usage nly with the fllwing ptins. -surce <lcatin> This ptin must be specified. (h)elp This ptin appears n the cmmand line. The cmmand ignres all ptins and prperties except -utput (fr terse r verbse utput). These ptins are valid nly fr this cmmand when the -help ptin is used. surce <value> This ptin specifies the target frm which the binary image is transferred. The value specified must be a valid URL. The frmat is //tftpserverip/path/filename. This ptin is required in the cmmand line when yu execute the lad cmmand unless yu use -help. The file must be an uncmpressed firmware image file that yu create using the DOS ROMPAQ utility fund n the Lights-Out 100 Firmware Upgrade Diskette Utility. Yu can dwnlad the utility frm the HP website ( T create the uncmpressed image file, enter the fllwing cmmand frm DOS: ROMPAQ /D <infile> <utfile> where <infile> is the ROMPAQ firmware image file and <utfile> is the filename fr the uncmpressed binary image file. -examine This ptin validates cmmand frmats. The lad cmmand returns any status data n the first lines. After the status data appears, ne f the fllwing lines f text appears n the next line: <URL> transferred t <target address> (if the file is transferred) <URL> nt transferred (if the file is nt transferred) Example: lad -surce // /pub/firmwareimage.bin -emhpfiletype csr Using LO100 23

24 // /pub/firmwareimage.bin transferred t /map1/firmware/firmwareimage The reset cmmand cycles the target frm enabled t disabled and then back t enabled. The set cmmand assigns a specific value t a prperty r grup f prperties. The standard syntax fr the set cmmand is set prperty = new value. The set cmmand is used t change any prperty (if applicable.) If the current directry des nt cntain the prperty yu want t change, yu must specify the target f the prperty befre entering the prperty yu want t change. The start cmmand causes a target t change state t a higher run level. The stp cmmand causes a target t change state t a lwer run level. Yu can between a CLP and a cnsle redirectin sessin by entering start r stp in the directry, fr example, the /./system1/cnsle1/-> directry. When using the stp cmmand t switch t the CLP sessin, yu must press the ESC key befre using the stp cmmand t return t the CLP sessin. The versin cmmand queries the versin f the CLP implementatin r ther CLP elements. Fr example: /./map1/-> versin Versin 1.00 /./map1/-> cd firmware /./map1/firmware/-> versin Versin 1.00 /./map1/firmware/-> shw /./map1/firmware Targets Prperties fwversin=2.20 Verbs cd versin exit shw reset lad help /./map1/firmware/-> shw fwversin fwversin=2.20 /./map1/firmware/-> fwversin Invalid cmmand /./map1/firmware/-> Using LO100 24

Lg in t LO100 thrugh a supprted brwser. 2. T display the license activatin screen, click Applicatin License Key. If the Applicatin License Key ptin is nt available, yu must update the LO100 firmware. Fr mre infrmatin, see "Updating the firmware (n page 16)." 3. Enter the license key in the spaces prvided. T mve between fields, click inside a field, r press the Tab key. The Activatin License Key field advances as yu enter data. 4. Click Apply. Imprting a certificate If yu d nt want t use the preinstalled public key (certificate), create and install yur wn private key (certificate). Imprting a key r certificate is a ne-time prcedure that supprts bth SSH and SSL. The key must be generated using external third-party sftware, placed n a TFTP server, and upladed t the LO100. Fr Micrsft Windws, if yu d nt have a TFTP sftware package, use TFTPD32.EXE, which is available n the Internet. Linux generally has a TFTP server installed with the perating system. If it is nt, see yur Linux dcumentatin fr mre infrmatin. Using LO100 51

52 NOTE: When yu use the CLP lad cmmand with TFTPD32, HP recmmends using a 4- secnd timeut and 10 retries. NOTE: When using the CLP lad cmmand in Linux set the timeut t The firewall built int sme Linux systems might nt allw the TFTP server t send and receive infrmatin. Yu might have t disable the firewall t allw these cnnectins. If yu are experiencing firewall issues, change the firewall settings t allw cnnectins n prt 69 (the default prt fr TFTP servers). See yur firewall dcumentatin fr additinal infrmatin. Creating a certificate LO100 requires a 1,024-bit DSA key stred in PEM (Base64-encded) frmat t be lcated n a TFTP server. Fr example, the fllwing prcess uses Win32 OpenSSL, dwnladed frm the Shining Light Prductins website ( and the cmmands issued in a DOS windw t generate the certificate. T generate a certificate using Win32 OpenSSL: 1. Dwnlad Win32 OpenSSL. 2. Install and set up OpenSSL. 3. Using OpenSSL, generate a DSA parameters file: penssl dsaparam -ut server_dsaparam.pem Generate the DSA private key file, called server_privkey.pem: penssl gendsa -ut server_privkey.pem server_dsaparam.pem 5. Generate the DSA certificate (public key) file, called server cacert.pem: penssl req -new -x509 -key server_privkey.pem -ut server_cacert.pem - days When prmpted fr a distinguished name, enter an apprpriate dmain name fr the servers that will be receiving the certificate. 7. After creating the certificate, cpy it t a TFTP server that is accessible n the same netwrk as LO100. Befre imprting a certificate r key, yu must discnnect frm any remte KVMS sessins. Imprting a key r certificate will discnnect yur sessin and reset the LO100 prcessr. After imprting a key r certificate and LO100 cnfirms a successful uplad, yu must lg back int LO100. Using LO100 52

53 Installing a certificate r private key thrugh a web brwser The Security Settings page enables yu t install new keys and certificates fr SSL and SSH cnnectins. T install a certificate thrugh the brwser: 1. Lg in t LO100 as an administratr. 2. On the brwser main menu navigatin bar, click Security Settings. 3. In the tftp server IP address field, enter the IP address f the TFTP server. 4. On the menu under File type, select Certificate. 5. Enter the file name f the certificate created (server_cacert.pem) in the File Name field. Include the path relative t the tftp server rt in the file name. 6. Click Apply. T install the private key thrugh the brwser: 1. Lg in t LO100 as an administratr. 2. On the brwser main menu navigatin bar, click Security Settings. 3. In the tftp server IP address field, enter the IP address f the TFTP server. 4. On the menu under File type, select Key. 5. Enter the file name f the key created (server_privkey.pem) in the File Name field. Include the path relative t the tftp server rt in the file name. 6. Click Apply. Installing a certificate r private key thrugh the CLP T install a certificate, lg in t LO100 as administratr thrugh the CLP interface and issue the lad cmmand t uplad and install the certificate. Fr example: lad -surce <URI> -emhpfiletype cer where: <URI> is the //tftpserver IP/path/filename t be dwnladed. tftpserver is the URL r IP address f the TFTP server cntaining the certificate. Path is the path f the file relative t the TFTP server rt. filename is the file name f the certificate file (server_cacert.pem in this example). Yu can als find these cmmands in /map1/firmware directry. Using LO100 53

54 NOTE: After using the lad cmmand LO100 will reset ending yur CLP interface sessin. Yu must recnnect t the CLP interface. T install a private key, lg in t LO100 as administratr thrugh the CLP interface and issue the lad cmmand t uplad and install the certificate. Fr example: lad -surce <URI> -emhpfiletype key where: <URI> is the //tftpserver IP/path/filename t be dwnladed. tftpserver is the URL r IP address f the TFTP server cntaining the private key file. Path is the path f the file relative t the TFTP server rt. filename is the file name f the private key file (server_privkey.pem in this example). Yu can als find these cmmands in /map1/firmware directry. NOTE: After using the lad cmmand LO100 will reset ending yur CLP interface sessin. Yu must recnnect t the CLP interface. Reslving character and line feed issues HP recmmends using similar perating systems t cmmunicate between the CMS and yur applicatins r wrkstatins. Fr example, if yu are running a Linux CMS, run Linux n yur wrkstatins, and use a Linux telnet client. Likewise, if yu are running a Windws CMS, run Windws n yur wrkstatins, and use a Windws Telnet client. If yu run multiple perating systems in yur envirnment, an applicatin limitatin issue might ccur. Fr example, running Linux n yur servers and using a Windws Telnet client r PuTTY might cause an end f line character issue. If yu experience issues, d ne the fllwing: Fr a Windws Telnet client t Linux cnsle redirectin cnfiguratin, make sure Windws Telnet sends a CR fr the line feed. T set CR, use the fllwing cmmand fr Windws Telnet: unset crlf Fr applicatins such as PuTTY with Linux redirectin: a. Click Cnnectin>Telnet. Using LO100 54

55 b. Clear Return key sends Telnet New Line instead f ^M. LO100 has a default f 0x08 (input) and 0x03 (utput) filter setting that must nt be changed. If the default settings are changed, functinality issues might ccur and yu must restre the default settings. After the defaults are reset, yu must lg ut and back in t the shell t restre nrmal functinality. T restre the default settings, use the fllwing IPMI cmmands fr yur envirnment and perating system: T set telnet inbund t 0x08: CLP: emhp I 20 c b4 DOS: ipmitl 20 c Linux: ipmitl raw 0x30 0x29 0x01 0x00 0x00 0x02 0x00 0x08 T set telnet utbund t 0x03: CLP: emhp I 20 c b8 DOS: ipmitl 20 c Linux: ipmitl raw 0x30 0x29 0x01 0x00 0x00 0x02 0x01 0x03 T set SSH inbund t 0x08: CLP: emhp I 20 c b3 DOS: ipmitl 20 c Linux: ipmitl raw 0x30 0x29 0x01 0x00 0x01 0x02 0x00 0x08 T set SSH utbund t 0x03: CLP: emhp I 20 c b7 DOS: ipmitl 20 c Linux: ipmitl raw 0x30 0x29 0x01 0x00 0x01 0x02 0x01 0x03 Fr example, t restre the default setting using telnet in Windws : 1.
