Hi Benny, There are a couple of development modules in the ansible docs, e.g. https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/devel/modules/hpilo_boot_module.html, but I have not used them.
I use the python package from http://seveas.github.io/python-hpilo to expose a command line interface and use an example playbook like the following. You have to extract data from the output of the cli but it's fairly straightforward and very useful. ansible-playbook -i "localhost," -c local playbook.yml --- - hosts: localhost gather_facts: false vars: ilo_host: "192.168.0.10" # IP address / hostname of the iLO interface ilo_user: "xxxxx" # username for the user to log into the iLO ilo_password: "xxxxxx" # fetch from vault or other secret storage hpilo_cli_cmd: "hpilo_cli {{ ilo_host }} --json --login='{{ ilo_user }}' --password='{{ ilo_password }}'" tasks: - name: Get current power status command: "{{ hpilo_cli_cmd }} get_host_power_status" register: hpilo_cli_get_host_power_status - name: Record power status set_fact: power_status: "{% if 'ON' in hpilo_cli_get_host_power_status.stdout %}ON{% else %}OFF{% endif %}" - name: Power on server - if it is powered down command: "{{hpilo_cli_cmd}} press_pwr_btn" when: power_status != "ON" - name: Reboot server - if it is powered up command: "{{hpilo_cli_cmd}} cold_boot_server" when: power_status == "ON" Hope that helps.
