In the Oracle ILOM CLI, encode the remote user password when specifying the destination URL.
For example, if your password is my_pwd, the encoded password in a dump command URL would look like this:
dump -destination http://username:my%3fpwd@hostname:/path/file
where: username is the user name for the target host; my%3fpwd is an example encoded password for the target host; hostname is the name of the target host, path is the location to store the file on the target host; and file is the name of the file being transferred.

Change the user password on the remote host to an acceptable URL password.
