Administrator_reset_pw.xml

<ribcl VERSION=”2.0″>
<login USER_LOGIN=”Administrator” PASSWORD=”boguspassword”>
<user_INFO MODE=”write”>
<mod_USER USER_LOGIN=”Administrator”>
<password value=”newpass”/>
</mod_USER>
</user_INFO>
</login>
</ribcl>

6. Using notepad, I opened up the sample file and modified it slightly. Initially, I just removed the LOGIN and ran the file but HPONCFG gave me a syntax error. I then added it back and gave the Administrator a bogus password. Apparently, the LOGIN line is required for syntax reasons but it is not actually processed.
7. Next, I opened a command line and changed directories to C:\hp\ilo and typed the following:

HPONCFG.exe /f Administrator_reset_pw.xml /l log.txt > output.txt

8. I opened up Internet Explorer, navigated to my iLO machine and viola! I was able to login as Administrator.

If changing Administrator’s password seems too scary, you can also add another user with administrator privileges. You can then login as that user and change the Administrator password via the web console. Use the following code, suited to your liking:

add_user.xml

<ribcl version=”2.0″>
<login USER_LOGIN=”Administrator” PASSWORD=”boguspass”>
<user_INFO MODE=”write” >
<add_USER
USER_NAME=”Tim”
USER_LOGIN=”Tim”
PASSWORD=”mynewpass”>
<reset_SERVER_PRIV value = “Y” />
<admin_PRIV value = “Y” />
</add_USER>
</user_INFO>
</login>
</ribcl>

Other cool samples:

ModNet.xml

<RIBCL VERSION=”2.0″>
<LOGIN USER_LOGIN=”Administrator” PASSWORD=”adminPassword”>
<RIB_INFO MODE=”read”>
<GET_NETWORK_SETTINGS/>
</RIB_INFO>
</LOGIN>
</RIBCL>

iLORestart.xml

<RIBCL VERSION=”2.0″>
<LOGIN USER_LOGIN=”Administrator” PASSWORD=”adminPassword”>
<RIB_INFO MODE=”write”>
<RESET_RIB/>
</RIB_INFO>
</LOGIN>
</RIBCL>

Many thx to our HP Guru “Jürgen Kopp” to bring me to this solution !!!
