User's Manual

Using the RACADM Command Line Interface 81
need to make exact index matches between all the CMCs being managed.
New users are added to the first available index. A
.cfg file that parses and
runs correctly on one CMC may not run correctly on another if all indexes
are full and you must add a new user.
• Use the
racresetcfg subcommand to configure both CMCs with
identical properties.
Use the
racresetcfg subcommand to reset the CMC to original
defaults, and then run the
racadm config -f <filename>.cfg
command. Ensure that the .cfg file includes all desired objects, users,
indexes, and other parameters. See the database property chapter of the
Dell Chassis Management Controller Firmware Version 2.0 Administrator
Reference Guide
for a complete list of objects and groups.
CAUTION: Use the racresetcfg subcommand to reset the database and the
CMC NIC settings to the original default settings and remove all users and user
configurations. While the root user is available, other users’ settings are also reset
to the default settings.
Parsing Rules
• Lines that start with a hash character (#) are treated as comments.
A comment line
must start in column one. A "#" character in any other
column is treated as a # character.
Some modem parameters may include # characters in their strings. An
escape character is not required. You may want to generate a
.cfg from a
racadm getconfig -f <filename>.cfg command, and then
perform a
racadm config -f <filename>.cfg command to a
different CMC, without adding escape characters.
Example:
#
# This is a comment
[cfgUserAdmin]
cfgUserAdminPageModemInitString=<Modem init # not
a comment>
• All group entries must be surrounded by open- and close-brackets
([ and ]
) .
