Hi,

awesome script! I need to open the same bunch of old idrac consoles every now and then and idrac being idrac that was a pain!

A small note though:
You leave your idrac web session open. That will clog your idrac eventually and it will become none responsive for a while because it reached it's maximum number of open sessions.

I'de recommend adding the following line after line 9:
RET=$(curl -s https://${HOST}/data/logout -c .cookie -b .cookie -k)

cheers
