iLO5 update fails due to required version
chris240189 opened this issue · comments
I have an iLO5 running 1.39 (flashed via python-hpilo).
Upon updating to 2.18 (with the last update of python-hpilo) the script fails with hpilo.IloError: Firmware flash failed.
.
Flashing the bin file directly via the webgui fails too with "the file siganture is invalid".
The reason could be that iLO5 1.40 is required for updating further (source https://community.hpe.com/t5/proliant-servers-ml-dl-sl/ilo5-firware-update-fails-quot-the-file-siganture-is-invalid/td-p/7085862)
updating to iLO5 1.40 manually and then using the python-hpilo updates as expected flawlessly to 2.18
Unfortunately there's not much python-hpilo can do. This is actually a known issue thogh the documentation only talks about iLO3. I'll update it to mention iLO5 and the 1.40 step.
