racresetcfg
Description Deletes your current iDRAC or CMC configuration and resets iDRAC or CMC to the factory
default settings. After reset, the default name and password is root and calvin,
respectively, and the IP address is 192.168.0.120. Only for iDRAC Enterprise on Blade
servers, it is IP address plus the number of the slot the server inhabits in the chassis. If
you issue racresetcfg from a network client (for example, a supported Web browser,
Telnet/ssh, or remote RACADM), you must use the default IP address. The racresetcfg
subcommand does not reset the cfgDNSRacName object.
To use this subcommand, you must have Configure iDRAC privilege for iDRAC and Chassis
Administrator privilege for CMC.
NOTE: Certain firmware processes need to be stopped and restarted to complete the
reset to defaults. iDRAC or CMC becomes unresponsive for about 30 seconds while
this operation completes
For CMC only:
NOTE: There is a 100% fan request when the command is issued against the servers.
