RIBCL Sample Scripts
Sample scripts for all iLO commands described in this section are available for
download from the HP website (http://www.hp.com/servers/lights-out).
RIBCL General Guidelines
In this section, all of the commands are grouped by functionality. All commands
that manipulate user information are grouped together. Grouping commands
allows the firmware to view the data to be manipulated as a block of information,
similar to a text document, allowing for multithreaded access to the different
kinds of information.
An opening command opens a database. The database remains open until the
matching closing command is sent. All changes made within a single command
block are applied simultaneously when the database is closed. Any errors within
the block cause the enclosed changes to be discarded.
An example of an opening command and its matching closing command are as
follows:
In all examples, the opening and closing commands are displayed.

connection. The XML header is built into the cpqlocfg utility and has the
following format:
