New Features and Usability Enhancements to RACADM Commands in iDRAC7

To import a new license to a specific device in a known location, use:

$ racadm license import -f license.xml -l //shareip/sharename

-u <share user> -p <share user password> -c idrac.embedded.1

To import a license from a CIFS share to a device, in this case embedded iDRAC, use:

$ racadm license import -u admin -p passwd -f License.xml-l

//192.168.2.140/licshare -c idrac.embedded.1

To import a license from the local file system using Local RACADM, use:

$ racadm license import -f License.xml -c idrac.embedded.1

To import a license from the local filesystem using Remote RACADM, use:

$ racadm license import -f C:\Mylicdir\License.xml

-c idrac.embedded.1

To export a license file (for Remote RACADM, if filename is not specified, the file(s) are exported to the

directory where RACADM is running), use:

$ racadm license export -f <filename> -l <share location>

-u <share username> -p <share password> -c iDRAC.Embedded.1

To delete a license, use:

$ racadm license delete -e B9865F23455DC458

To delete all licenses installed on a particular device, use:

$ racadm license delete -c idrac.embedded.1

To delete licenses on a particular device, in this case embedded iDRAC, use:

$ racadm license delete -c idrac.embedded.1

To delete a license using entitlement ID, in this case xYZabcdefg, use:

$ racadm license delete -e xYZabcdefg

To delete a license using transaction ID, in this case 2, use:

$ racadm license delete -t 2

To replace a license on a device with a license file on an NFS share using transaction ID, in this case

transaction 27, use:

$ racadm license replace -f License.xml -l 192.168.2.140

:/licshare-t 27

To replace a license on a device with a license file on a CIFS share using transaction ID, in this case
