iLO Cookbook
Enables configuration of HPE iLOs via their APIs.
Requirements

- iLO 4
Cookbook Dependencies
- none
How to use the iLO Cookbook:
This cookbook is not intended to include any recipes.
Use it by specifying a dependency on this cookbook in your own cookbook.
# my_cookbook/metadata.rb ... depends 'ilo'
Now you can use the resources this cookbook provides. See below for some examples.
iLO Authentication
Each of the resources below requires you to pass in the info necessary to connect with the iLO API.
The basic structure accepted by the ilos
property is an array of hashes (or ILO_SDK::Client
objects):
ilos = [ { host: 'ilo1.example.com', # Required. IP or hostname user: 'Administrator', # Optional. Defaults to 'Administrator' password: 'secret123', # Required ssl_enabled: false # Optional }, { host: '10.0.0.3', user: 'User2', password: 'secret456' } ]
This array can be built using a variety of different sources, including [encrypted] databags, attributes, or read from json or yaml files.
For example:
# Set directly in recipe: ilo_list1 = [] ilo_list1.push { host: 'ilo1.example.com', user: 'Administrator', password: 'secret123' } # Read from data_bag: ilo_list2 = data_bag_item('ilo_secrets', 'data_center_1') # Load from yaml file: ilo_list3 = YAML.load_file('/root/ilo_secrets.yml')
iLO Resources
The following resources are available for usage in your recipes.
We give examples to show how to use each resource, but there are much more detailed examples in the [examples](examples) directory.
You may also find the [recipes in the cookbook used for testing](spec/fixtures/cookbooks/ilo_test/recipes) helpful as examples.

ilo_bios 'set BIOS configuration' do ilos [ilo1, ilo2] settings( UefiShellStartup: 'Enabled', UefiShellStartupLocation: 'Auto', UefiShellStartupUrl: 'http://www.uefi.nsh', Dhcpv4: 'Enabled', Ipv4Address: '10.1.1.0', Ipv4Gateway: '10.1.1.11', Ipv4PrimaryDNS: '10.1.1.1', Ipv4SecondaryDNS: '10.1.1.2', Ipv4SubnetMask: '255.255.255.0', UrlBootFile: 'http://www.urlbootfile.iso', ServiceName: 'iLO Admin', ServiceEmail: 'admin@domain.com' # NOTE: This is just an example; you can set as many or as few settings as you want. # (And there's a whole lot more you can set.
