User's Manual

Using the RACADM Command Line Interface 93
you can use the Pageant application. It runs in the background and makes
entering the passphrase transparent. For Linux clients, you can use the ssh-
agent. For setting up and using either of these applications, see the
documentation provided from that application.
Enabling a CMC User With Permissions
To enable a user with specific administrative permissions (role-based
authority), first locate an available user index by performing the steps in
"Before You Begin" on page 87. Next, type the following command lines with
the new user name and password.
racadm config -g cfgUserAdmin -o
cfgUserAdminPrivilege -i <index> <user privilege bitmask value>
NOTE: See Table 3-1 in the Database Property chapter of the Dell Chassis
Management Controller Administrator Reference Guide for a list of valid bit mask
values for specific user privileges. The default privilege value is 0, which indicates
the user has no privileges enabled.
Disabling a CMC User
Using RACADM, you can only disable CMC users manually and on an
individual basis. You cannot delete users by using a configuration file.
The following example illustrates the command syntax that can be used to
delete a CMC user:
racadm config -g cfgUserAdmin -i 2
cfgUserAdminPrivilege 0x0
Configuring SNMP and E-mail Alerting
You can configure the CMC to send SNMP event traps and/or e-mail alerts
when certain events occur on the chassis. For more information and
instructions, see "Configuring SNMP Alerts" on page 373 and "Configuring E-
mail Alerts" on page 379.
You can specify the trap destinations as appropriately-formatted
numeric addresses (IPv6 or IPv4), or Fully-qualified domain names
(FQDNs). Choose a format that is consistent with your networking
technology/infrastructure.
