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.
