Solution of the iLO error “HTTP SSL_ERROR_BAD_MAC_ALERT”

I noticed the following error when opening the iLO web interface in the browser:

Error establishing secure connection
An error occurred while connecting to 172.16.1.2. The SSL node reported an incorrect message authentication code. Error code: SSL_ERROR_BAD_MAC_ALERT

Updating iLO 3 firmware on HP servers

Once I set up iLO on servers and noticed that when opening an interface in the browser, an SSL error occurs and the iLO web interface does not open.

See how to temporarily solve this error in my article – Solution of the iLO error “HTTP SSL_ERROR_BAD_MAC_ALERT”.

For example, I will use HP ProLiant DL380 G7 with old firmware iLO 3 1.10 (Jul 26 2010)

Solving the problem when upgrading iLO 3 “98% Receiving Image…”

Updated somehow iLO 3 from version 1.10 to 1.88, on the HP ProLiant DL380 G7 server and the process stopped at “98% Receiving Image…

So, if the firmware version of iLO 3 is lower than 1.28, then you must first upgrade to version 1.28, and then higher.

That’s the whole solution to the problem.

Resetting the iLO password via hponcfg on HP servers

On the test, I change the iLO password to the standard Administrator user on the HP ProLiant DL380 G7 server, the password is generated randomly from the manufacturer and installed in the BIOS, it can also be seen on the pull-out ribbon and attached to the server.

Therefore, in order not to restart the server to change the password, create a file with the name reset_password.xml for example and add content to it:

<RIBCL VERSION="2.0">
<LOGIN USER_LOGIN="Administrator" PASSWORD="password">
<USER_INFO MODE="write">
<MOD_USER USER_LOGIN="Administrator">
<PASSWORD value="password specify here only"/>
</MOD_USER>
</USER_INFO>
</LOGIN>
</RIBCL>

Where Administrator, this is the user name, password – do not touch, there can be any text, but only indicate the desired password to the user in the PASSWORD value.

We export the file:

sudo hponcfg -f reset_password.xml

In case of an error, you can output the report to the log.txt file with the command:

sudo hponcfg -f reset_password.xml -l log.txt

SNMP OID List for iLO4

I made a template for Zabbix today to monitor iLO 4 on the HP DL380p G8 server and had to investigate several OIDs.

You can check the OID from Linux with the command:
snmpwalk 192.168.1.5 -c КОМЬЮНИТИ -v 2c OID

Below is a list and description for OID coolers, processors, temperature sensors, logical drives (RAID), hard disks, network controller iLO, RAM.
