Users Guide

missing properties into the configuration file after running the getconfig -f command. This is true for all the RACADM–indexed

groups.

This is the list of the indexed groups that exhibit this behavior and their corresponding key properties:

• cfgUserAdmin — cfgUserAdminUserName

• cfgEmailAlert — cfgEmailAlertAddress

• cfgTraps — cfgTrapsAlertDestIPAddr

• cfgStandardSchema — cfgSSADRoleGroupName

• cfgServerInfo — cfgServerBmcMacAddress

Modifying the CMC IP Address

When you modify the CMC IP address in the configuration file, remove all unnecessary <variable> = <value> entries. Only the

actual variable group’s label with [ and ] remains, including the two <variable> = <value> entries pertaining to the IP address

change.

Example:

# Object Group "cfgLanNetworking"

[cfgLanNetworking]

cfgNicIpAddress=10.35.10.110

cfgNicGateway=10.35.10.1

This file is updated as follows:

# Object Group "cfgLanNetworking"

[cfgLanNetworking]

cfgNicIpAddress=10.35.9.143

# comment, the rest of this line is ignored

cfgNicGateway=10.35.9.1

The command racadm config -f <myfile>.cfg parses the file and identifies any errors by line number. A correct file updates the

proper entries. Additionally, you can use the same getconfig command from the previous example to confirm the update.

Use this file to download company-wide changes or to configure new systems over the network with the command, racadm

getconfig -f <myfile>.cfg.

NOTE:

Anchor

is a reserved word and should not be used in the .cfg file.

Configuring Multiple CMCs through RACADM

Using Chassis Configuration Profiles

By using chassis configuration profiles, you can export the chassis configuration profiles as an XML file and import it to another chassis.

Use RACADM get command for export operation and set command for import operation.

NOTE: By default, the export is done as clone type. You can use the –—clone to get the clone type profile in XML file.

You can export chassis profiles (XML files) from CMC to the network share or to a local management station and import chassis profiles

(XML files) from the network share or from a local management station.

The import and export operation to and from the network share can be done through local RACADM as well as remote RACADM.

Whereas, the import and export operation to and from the local management can be done only through remote RACADM interface.

Exporting Chassis Configuration profiles

You can export chassis configuration profiles to network share by using the get command.
