iLO 5 LetsEncrypt Certificate Autorenew

This project leverages the HP iLO Python API to automate the request and renewal process for SSL certificates on servers running iLO5. By default this uses the Cloudflare DNS challenge for the certificate, but it can be modified to use any method you like.

NB: This has only been tested with iLO 5 version 2.99.

Installing

Make sure you have a valid Python 3 install with pip ready to go. I recommend using a virtual environment of some kind to run this script. Install dependencies...

pip install -r requirements.txt

...and you'll be ready to go!

Usage

1. Customize your .env file using the .env.template file provided. Make sure to provide values for all variables.

2. Create a file called cloudflare-token.ini that contains your CloudFlare DNS API token in this format:

   dns_cloudflare_api_token = {YOUR TOKEN HERE}

3. Run the script: python generate_cert.py

4. If everything worked, iLO will reset itself in a few minutes with the new SSL cert. You're done!
