ILO2 Java Remote console as Standalone version
Tested with Java 8 and Java 11. Hangs for an unknown reason on Java 15.
Because even on the latest firmware (2.33 as of 2021-04-16),
due to hardware limitations, iLO2 does not support modern TLS (and ciphers).
Therefore, adjusting the JRE's security settings is necessary. Seemingly, this can not be done at runtime,
so a custom security file has to be passed to Java. That is what the -Djava.security.properties=java.security part does.
if this still fails with a TLS related error, the certificate in use by your ILO might still rely on pre-2.33 ciphers. In that case, regenerate or replace it through the ILO web interface.
You can either pass host, username and password as arguments:
java -Djava.security.properties=java.security -jar ILO2RemCon.jar <Hostname> <Username> <Password>
Or you can use a config file (for an example, see config_template.properties):
java -Djava.security.properties=java.security -jar ILO2RemCon.jar -c <Path to config.properties>
Running the Application without arguments will try using a config.properties in the current working directory.
