Can’t reset HP ML110 G6 LO100 to factory defaults

hphp-proliantilo

I've tried to reset the embedded LO100 using the following methods:

  • Switch configuration dip switch 1
  • Removing CMOS battery for more than 10 minutes

None of the methods above reset to factory default settings.

I can only access the LO100 via SSH and haven't found anything useful using the CLP to reset it.

Accessing via web UI doesn't work.

It seems that despite the server having a dedicated LO100 port, it is currently configured in "shared" mode.

How can I gain web ui access and reset to factory default settings?

UPDATE I managed to upgrade the firmware for the LO100 using SSH and CLP. According to this it should reset the settings, but it didn't!

Did you try to use ipmitool?

Like this:

$> ipmitool lan print

That should give you some IPMI output. You can boot almost any Linux from a LiveCD/Stick and just install ipmitool. I once had a HP ML110 G6 and was able to restore access to my iLO 100 through ipmitool.
