A recent Gnome is very hard to build, because it depends on a dozen Linux-specifics: glibc, glib, xrandr, gvfs/fuse, dbus, systemd.
I was surprised that Oracle has done the effort for Solaris 11. E.g. they provide a gvfs clone (that does not need fuse), systemd services (that work with init and smf), and much more, just for the sole purpose: support Gnome.
I cannot believe that HPE does the same.
If there is any Gnome then it is certainly an older Gnome version (e.g. Gnome 1.4).
Sorry, I have lost my HPE account and cannot dig further...

gnome-osd-client(1) General Commands Manual gnome-osd-client(1)
NAME
gnome-osd-client - A GNOME OSD shell interface
SYNOPSIS
gnome-osd-client [-h] [--help] [-f] [--full] [-s] [--stdin] [--dbus] [message]
DESCRIPTION
The gnome-osd-client command allows you to send Gnome OSD notifications from shell scripts.
OPTIONS
-h --help
Display help on command-line options.
-f --full
Enable "full" message specification syntax, which is XML based.
-s --stdin
Read message from stdin instead of command-line.
--dbus Always use D-BUS instead of Bonobo as IPC mechanism.
By default Bonobo is used, unless it is not available, in which case D-BUS is tried next. This option reverses this order.
MESSAGE FORMAT
The protocol used by GNOME OSD is XML based (surprise!).
<message ..attributes..> ...pango markup... </message>
For a description of pango markup, see http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.0/pango/PangoMarkupFormat.html
The <message> XML element accepts the following attributes:
id This allows you to create or use alternative OSD instance; By specifying different IDs, you can keep several messages on the screen
at the same time. But for each ID, only one message can be displayed at a time. If not specified, id='default' is assumed.
inherit
Can be used in conjunction with 'id', to specify that the new OSD instance (which must not already exist) inherits properties from
the instance identified by 'inherit'. If not specified, inherit='default'.
Any gnome-osd gconf key name (run "gconf-editor /apps/gnome-osd" for a list, with respective documentation)
These control several message properties. This can not be used for messages with ID 'default'. Property overrides are remembered
across messages for the same ID. For instance, if you specify animations='false' for id='foo', next message with id='foo' will have
animations turned off by default.
Example:
.PP
gnome-osd-client -f "<message id='myplugin' osd_fake_translucent_bg='on' osd_vposition='center' animations='off' hide_timeout='1000' osd_halignment='right'>Volume: 96%</message>"
