I discovered this possibility a year back, and it’s only now I invested the time to get this working! It turned out not to be as challenging as I thought, in fact the hardest bit was getting the authentication token.<\/p>\n

I have written a PowerShell function called Get-AHSData which allows you to gather the AHS data from an HPE iLO 4 or newer. These AHS logs are frequently requested by HPE Support when logging calls for Proliant, and downloading these using the iLO UI can be cumbersome – and involves a mouse!<\/p>\n

Get-AHSData will allow you to specify the server, iLO Credentials and a Start \/ End date for the log range if necessary. By default it will grab metrics for 1 day. You specify a folder to export the file to and it will go grab the file and save it there, returning a file list (if you run against multiple iLOs).<\/p>\n

Code is out on GitHub Here<\/a><\/p>\n

Sorry it’s a little long to embed here, and keeping it in GitHub will allow me to iterate it with improvements without having to circle back and update this page.<\/p>\n

An example of this running:

Let me know on GitHub if you have any issues, or feel free to fork and improve! I already have a couple of enhancements from my colleagues which I will look to include.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
