groups as dened in the database property chapter of the Chassis Management Controller for Dell PowerEdge M1000e RACADM
Command Line Reference Guide . The following example displays a group name, object, and the object’s property value:
[cfgLanNetworking] -{group name}
cfgNicIpAddress=143.154.133.121 {object name}
{object value}
• All parameters are specied as "object=value" pairs with no white space between the object, =, or value. White spaces that are included
after the value are ignored. A white space inside a value string remains unmodied. Any character to the right of the = (for example, a
second =, a #, [, ], and so on) is taken as-is. These characters are valid modem chat script characters.
[cfgLanNetworking] -{group name}
cfgNicIpAddress=143.154.133.121 {object value}
• The .cfg parser ignores an index object entry.
You cannot specify which index is used. If the index already exists, it is either used or the new entry is created in the rst available index
for that group.
The racadm getconfig -f <filename>.cfg command places a comment in front of index objects, allowing you to see the
included comments.
NOTE: You may create an indexed group manually using the following command:
racadm config -g <groupname> -o <anchored object> -i <index 1-16> <unique anchor name>
• The line for an indexed group cannot be deleted from a .cfg le. If you do delete the line with a text editor, RACADM stops when it
parses the conguration le and alert you of the error.
You must remove an indexed object manually using the following command:
racadm config -g <groupname> -o <objectname> -i <index 1-16> ""
NOTE
: A NULL string (identied by two " characters) directs the CMC to delete the index for the specied
group.
To view the contents of an indexed group, run the following command:
racadm getconfig -g <groupname> -i <index 1-16>
• For indexed groups the object anchor must be the rst object after the [ ] pair. The following are examples of the current indexed
groups:
[cfgUserAdmin]
cfgUserAdminUserName= <USER_NAME>
• When using remote RACADM to capture the conguration groups into a le, if a key property within a group is not set, the
conguration group is not saved as part of the conguration le. To replicate these conguration groups on other CMCs, set the key
property before executing the getconfig -f command. Alternatively, enter the missing properties into the conguration le
manually after running the getconfig -f command. This is true for all the racadm indexed groups.
This is the list of the indexed groups that exhibit this behavior and their corresponding key properties:
– cfgUserAdmin — cfgUserAdminUserName
– cfgEmailAlert — cfgEmailAlertAddress
– cfgTraps — cfgTrapsAlertDestIPAddr
– cfgStandardSchema — cfgSSADRoleGroupName
– cfgServerInfo — cfgServerBmcMacAddress
Modifying the CMC IP Address
When you modify the CMC IP address in the conguration le, remove all unnecessary <variable> = <value> entries. Only the
actual variable group’s label with [ and ] remains, including the two <variable> = <value> entries pertaining to the IP address
change.
Example:
#
# Object Group "cfgLanNetworking"
#
104
