When you forgot your HP ILO password, there are 2 solutions to reset it:
- By having physical access to the server and reconfigure it during the boot.
- By having Windows access and running a script.
To reset the password from Windows, you need to copy CPQLOCFG.EXE on your server and run the following XML Script:
<RIBCL VERSION="2.0">
<LOGIN USER_LOGIN="adminname" PASSWORD="password">
<USER_INFO MODE="write">
<MOD_USER USER_LOGIN="username">
<PASSWORD value="newpassword"/>
</MOD_USER>
</USER_INFO>
</LOGIN>
</RIBCL>
This solution is working for HP ILO, ILO2 and RILOE II interfaces.
You can download the following package, containing CPQLOCFG.EXE with aditional scripts.
