Synopsis
• racadm config -g <group> -o <object> <value>
• racadm config -g <group> -o <object> -i <index> <value>
• racadm config -f <filename> -o [-c] [-p] [-continue]
NOTE:
•
The conguration le retrieved using remote RACADM is not interoperable. For the cong racadm -
r 192.168.0 -u root -p xxx config -f c:\config.txt command, use the
conguration le retrieved from the same interface. For example, for the cong racadm -r
192.168.0 -u root -p xxx config -f c:\config.txt , use the le generated from
getcong command racadm -r 192.168.0 -u root -p xxx getconfig -f c:
\config.txt.
• -f is only applicable for remote RACADM.
racadm config -g <group> -o <object> <value> [-m <module>]
Input
• -f — The -f <filename> option causes cong to read the contents of the le specied by
<filename> and congure CMC. The le must contain data in the format specied in the section Parsing
Rules in the
CMC User’s Guide available at www.dell.com/esmmanuals.
NOTE: The -f option is not supported for the Serial or Telnet or SSH console.
• -continue — This option is used with -f option only. If conguration through le is unsuccessful for a
group, then conguration continues with the next group in the le. If this option is not used, then
conguration stops when it is unsuccessful for a particular group. After the unsuccessful group, the rest of
the groups are not congured.
• -p — This option must be used with the -f option. It directs cong to delete the password entries
contained in the cong le -f <filename> after the conguration is complete.
To apply the password, you must remove the preceding Read-Only marker '#' in the cong le before
executing the config -f command.
• -g — The -g <groupName>, or group option, must be used with the -o option. The <group> species
the group containing the object that is to be set.
