RACADM
After performing a CMC reset (using the RACADM racreset subcommand), when a command is entered, the following
message is displayed:
racadm <subcommand> Transport: ERROR: (RC=-1)
This message indicates that another command must be issued only after CMC completes the reset.
Using the RACADM subcommands sometimes displays one or more of the following errors:
• Local error messages — Problems such as syntax, typographical errors, and incorrect names. Example:ERROR: <message>
Use the RACADM help subcommand to display correct syntax and usage information.
CMC-related error messages — Problems where the CMC is unable to perform an action. Also might say "racadm command
failed."
Type racadm gettracelog for debugging information.
While using remote RACADM, the prompt changes to a ">" and the "$" prompt is not displayed again.
If a non-matched double quotation mark (") or a non-matched single quotation (’) is used in the command, the CLI changes to the
">" prompt and queues all commands.
To return to the $ prompt, type <Ctrl>–d.
An error message "Not Found" is displayed, while using the $ logout and $ quit commands.
The logout and quit commands are not supported in the CMC RACADM interface.
Managing and Recovering a Remote System
While accessing the CMC Web interface, a security warning stating that the host name of the SSL certicate does not match
the host name of CMC is displayed.
CMC includes a default CMC server certicate to ensure network security for the Web interface and remote RACADM features.
When this certicate is used, the Web browser displays a security warning because the default certicate is issued to CMC default
certicate which does not match the host name of CMC (for example, the IP address).
To address this security concern, upload a CMC server certicate issued to the IP address of CMC. When generating the certicate
signing request (CSR) to be used for issuing the certicate, ensure that the common name (CN) of the CSR matches the IP address
of CMC (for example, 192.168.0.120) or the registered DNS CMC name.
