Synopsis
racadm getconfig -f <filename>
racadm getconfig -g <groupName> [-i <index>]
racadm getconfig -u <username>
racadm getconfig -h
racadm getconfig -g <groupName> -o
<objectName> [-i index]
Input
• -f — The -f <filename> option directs getconfig to
write the entire iDRAC configurations to a configuration file.
This file can be used for batch configuration operations using
the config subcommand.
NOTE: This option is supported only on remote
interfaces.
•
-g — The -g <groupName> or group option, is used to
display the configuration for a single group. The <groupName>
is the name for the group used in the racadm.cfg files. If the
group is an indexed group, then use the-i option.
• -h — The -h or help option, displays a list of all available
configuration groups in alphabetical order. This option is useful
when you do not remember exact group names.
• -i — The -i <index> or index option, is valid only for
indexed groups and is used to specify a unique group. The
<index> is a decimal integer from 1 through n, where n can
vary from 1 to maximum number of indexes a particular group
supports. If -i <index> is not specified, then a value of 1 is
assumed for groups, which are tables that have multiple entries.
The -i option enters the index value and not a named value
• -o — The -o <objectname> or object option specifies the
object name that is used in the query. This option is optional
and can be used with the -g option.
• -u — The-u <username> or user name option, is used to
display the configuration for the specified user. The
<username> option is the login name for the user.
• -v — The -v option displays more information with the display
of the properties and is used with the -g option.
Output
The subcommand displays error message when:
• Invalid syntax, group name, object name, index, or any other
invalid database members are entered.
• The RACADM CLI transport is unsuccessful.
If errors are not encountered, this subcommand displays the
content of the specified configuration.
