RACADM
After performing a CMC reset (using the RACADM racreset subcommand), when a command is entered, the following
message is displayed:
racadm <subcommand> Transport: ERROR: (RC=-1)
What does this message mean?
Another command must be issued only after CMC completes the reset.
Using the RACADM subcommands sometimes displays one or more of the following errors:
• Local error messages — Problems such as syntax, typographical errors, and incorrect names. For example, ERROR:
<message>
Use the RACADM help subcommand to display correct syntax and usage information. For example, if you have an error in clearing a
chassis log, run the following sub-command.
racadm chassislog help clear
CMC–related error messages — Problems where the CMC is unable to perform an action. The following error message is displayed
racadm command failed.
To view information about a chassis, type the following command.
racadm gettracelog
While using rmware RACADM, the prompt changes to a ">" and the "$" prompt is not displayed again.
If a non-matched double quotation mark (") or a non-matched single quotation (’) is used in the command, the CLI changes to the
">" prompt and queues all commands.
To return to the $ prompt, type <Ctrl>–d.
An error message Not Found is displayed while using the $ logout and $ quit commands.
Managing and recovering a remote system
When accessing the CMC Web interface, a security warning stating that the host name of the SSL certicate does not match
the host name of CMC is displayed.
CMC includes a default CMC server certicate to ensure network security for the web interface and remote RACADM features.
When this certicate is used, the web browser displays a security warning because the default certicate is issued to CMC default
certicate which does not match the host name of CMC (for example, the IP address).
To address this security concern, upload a CMC server certicate issued to the IP address of CMC. When generating the certicate
signing request (CSR) to be used for issuing the certicate, ensure that the common name (CN) of the CSR matches the IP address
of CMC (for example, 192.168.0.120) or the registered DNS CMC name.
