Synopsis
• racadm deploy -m <module> -u root -p <password> -s
<ipaddress> <subnet> <gateway> -b <device> -o <no|yes>
• racadm deploy -m <module> -u root -p <password> -s -6
<ipv6Address> <prefixlen> <gateway> -b <device> -o <no|
yes>
where <prefixlen> is a number between 0 and 128.
• racadm deploy -m <module> -u root -p <password> -d [-6]
• racadm deploy -a -u root -p <password>
Input
• -b < device > — Specifies the first boot device; must be used with -o.
• Use with -m <module> to specify for an individual server, or with -a for
all servers
Legal values: device=None, PXE, HDD, CD-DVD, vFDD, vCD-DVD, SD,
FDD, RFS
• -o < no|yes > — Indicates if the server should boot from the device once;
must be used with -o.
Use with -m <module> to specify for an individual server, or with -a for
all servers
• -a — server/switch. Applies options to all modules present in the chassis
of the given module type. Specify the value as server or switch. Default
value is server. Switches must support Ethernet Management.
• -u root — Indicates that the < password > is supplied for the root user on
the server. root is a constant parameter, the only value that is valid with
the ‑u option. Required Username when you are setting IOA values.
• -m < module > — Specifies the server you want to configure.
Legal value must be one of the following values:
– server-n where n=1–4
– switch-n where n=1–2.
• -p < password > — Specifies the password for the root user on the server
or switch.
Legal values: For switches, valid passwords are 6 - 32 ASCII characters in
length, ranging in value 32–125 (decimal). For servers, valid passwords
are 1 – 20 ASCII characters in length, ranging in value 32 – 126 (decimal).
• -s <ipaddress subnet gateway> — Sets the IP address, subnet mask, and
gateway for the specified server, separated by single spaces.
– ipaddress — A string representing a valid IP address. For example,
192.168.0.20.
– subnet — A string representing a valid subnet mask. For example,
255.255.255.0.
– gateway — A string representing a valid gateway address. For
example, 192.168.0.1.
• -d — Enables DHCP for the specified server.
The -s and -d options cannot be used together in the same command.
• -6 — Enables IPv6 auto configuration (when used with -d.) Sets static
IPv6 addresses (when used with -s).
• -v—SNMPv2 community string.
