cong attribute
Description
Allows you to set iDRAC conguration parameters individually or to batch them as part of a conguration le and
then modify iDRAC conguration properties. If the data is dierent, the iDRAC object is written with a new value.

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 iDRAC. The le must contain data in the format specied in the section Parsing Rules in the iDRAC
User’s Guide available at www.dell.com/idracmanuals.
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.
