HP Lights-Out Migration Command utility
The HP Lights-Out Migration Command utility, HPQLOMGC.EXE, offers a command-line approach to
migration, rather than a GUI-based approach. This utility works in conjunction with the Application
Launch and query features of HP SIM to configure many devices at a time. Customers that must
configure only a few LOM devices to use directory services might also prefer the command-line
approach. For more information, see the section, "HPQLOMIG directory migration utility (on page
173
)."

HP SIM utilities:
o
Manage multiple LOM devices.
o
Discover the LOM devices as management processors using CPQLOCFG to send a RIBCL XML
script file to a group of LOM devices to manage those LOM devices. The LOM devices perform
the actions designated by the RIBCL file and send a response to the CPQLOCFG log file. For
more information, see the
HP Integrated Lights-Out Management Processor Scripting and
Command Line Resource Guide

Traditional import utilities
Administrators familiar with tools such as LDIFDE or the NDS Import/Export Wizard can use these
utilities to import or create many LOM device objects in the directory. However, administrators must
still configure the devices manually, as described previously, but can do so at any time.
Programmatic or scripting interfaces can also be used to create the LOM device objects in the same
way as users or other objects. The "Directory services schema (on page
213
)" section provides
details on attributes and attribute data formats when creating LOM objects.
