80 Using the RACADM Command Line Interface

Enabling and Disabling the RACADM Remote Capability

NOTE: Dell recommends that you run these commands at the chassis.

The RACADM remote capability on the CMC is enabled by default. In the

following commands, -g specifies the configuration group the object belongs

to, and -o specifies the configuration object to configure.

To disable the RACADM remote capability, type:

racadm config -g cfgRacTuning -o

cfgRacTuneRemoteRacadmEnable 0

To re-enable RACADM remote capability, type:

racadm config -g cfgRacTuning -o

cfgRacTuneRemoteRacadmEnable 1

Using RACADM Remotely

NOTE: Configure the IP address on your CMC before using the RACADM remote

capability. For more information about setting up your CMC, see "Installing and

Setting Up the CMC" on page 31.

The RACADM console’s remote option (-r) allows you to connect to

the managed system and execute RACADM subcommands from a

remote console or management station. To use the remote capability, you

need a valid user name (-u option) and password (-p option), and the

CMC IP address.

Before you try to access RACADM remotely, confirm that you have

permissions to do so. To display your user privileges, type:

racadm getconfig -g cfguseradmin -i n

where n is your user ID (1–16).

If you do not know your user ID, try different values for n.

NOTE: The RACADM remote capability is supported only on management stations

through a supported browser. For more information, see the Supported Browsers

section in the Dell Systems Software Support Matrix at support.dell.com/manuals.

NOTE: When using the RACADM remote capability, you must have write

permissions on the folders where you are using the RACADM subcommands

involving file operations. For example:

racadm getconfig -f <file name> -r <IP address>

racadm sslcertupload -t 1 -f c:\cert\cert.txt
