Supported RACADM Interfaces
The RACADM command-line utility provides a scriptable interface that allows you to locally congure or remotely congure your
CMC. The utility runs on the management station and the managed system. It is available on the Dell OpenManage Systems
Management and Documentation DVD or at dell.com/support.
The RACADM utility supports the following interfaces:
• SSH or Telnet — Also known as Firmware RACADM. Firmware RACADM is accessible by logging in to CMC using SSH or Telnet.
Similar to Remote RACADM, at the RACADM prompt, directly run the commands without the RACADM prex.
• Remote — Supports running RACADM commands from a remote management station such as a laptop or desktop. To run
Remote RACADM commands, install the DRAC Tools utility from the OpenManage software on the remote computer. To run
Remote RACADM commands:
– Formulate the command as a SSH or Telnet RACADM command.
For more information about the options, see RACADM Subcommand Details. To download the local RACADM tool from
dell.com/support, click Servers, Storage & Networking in the General Support section. Click PowerEdge, click the required
PowerEdge system, and then click Drivers & downloads.
