Synopsis
racadm getconfig -f <filename>
racadm getconfig -g <groupName> [-i
<index>]
racadm getconfig -u <username>
racadm getconfig -h
racadm getconfig -g <groupName> -o
<objectName>
[-i index]
Input
● -f — The -f <filename> option directs getconfig to write
the entire iDRAC configuration to a configuration file. This
file can be used for batch configuration operations using
the config subcommand.
● -g — The -g <groupName>, or group option, can be
used to display the configuration for a single group.
The groupName is the name for the group used in the
racadm.cfg files. If the group is an indexed group, use the
-i option.
● -h — The -h, or help option, displays a list of all available
configuration groups in alphabetical order. This option is
useful when you do not have exact group names.
● -i — The -i <index>, or index option, is valid only for
indexed groups and can be used to specify a unique group.
The <index>is a decimal integer from 1 through n, where n
can vary from 1 to maximum number of indexes a particular
group supports. If -i <index> is not specified, a value of 1
is assumed for groups, which are tables that have multiple
entries. The index is specified by the index value, not a
named value.
● -o — The -o <objectname> or object option specifies
the object name that is used in the query. This option is
optional and can be used with the -g option.
● -u — The -u <username>, or user name option, can be
used to display the configuration for the specified user.
The <username> option is the login name for the user.
● -v — The -v option displays additional details with the
display of the properties and is used with the -g option.
