How to configure ssh keys on HP C Class blade enclosures

Submitted by Peter Jenkins — posted on 2010-08-05 14:39 — last modified 2010-08-05 14:39

Couldn't find this online so I thought I'd share it here.

If you want to add an ssh key to a HP BladeSystem Onboard Administrator do this at the prompt:

> set script mode on

Script mode now in effect.

[SCRIPT MODE]> add sshkey UnIqUe_StRiNg
ssh-rsa realkeyomitted user@hostname
UnIqUe_StRiNg

Note that you can't have password and ssh key authentication for a single user so you'll need to create two administration users, one for password auth and one for ssh key.

I'll leave the reader to decide what they think of this functionality!
