Monitoring HP ILO via Ssh

I'm looking at monitoring hp ilo via ssh, as our existing script only runs
on the linux boxes.

Looking at this, it isn't hard, so I'm thinking someone *MUST* have done
this already

In the spirit of never writing from scratch what you can steal ^H^H^H^H
find an existing collaborative project on, does anyone have anything like
this already?

thanks Betsy
