44 RACADM Subcommand Details
Output
This subcommand generates error output for any of the following reasons:
• Invalid syntax, group name, object name, index, or other invalid 
database members
• RACADM CLI failures
This subcommand returns an indication of the number of configuration 
objects that were written out of the total objects in the .cfg file.
Examples
•
racadm config -g cfgLanNetworking -o 
cfgNicIpAddress 10.35.10.100
Sets the 
cfgNicIpAddress
 configuration parameter (object) to the value 
10.35.10.110. This IP address object is contained in the group 
cfgLanNetworking
.
•
racadm config -f myrac.cfg
Configures or reconfigures iDRAC6. The 
myrac.cfg
 file may be created 
from the 
getconfig 
command. The 
myrac.cfg
 file may also be edited 
manually as long as the parsing rules are followed.
  NOTE: The myrac.cfg file does not contain passwords. To include passwords 
in the file, you must enter them manually. If you want to remove password 
information from the myrac.cfg file during configuration, use the -p option.
-i  The -i <index>, or index option, is valid only for indexed groups and can be 
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, a value of 1 is 
assumed for groups, which are tables that have multiple entries. The index 
is specified by the index value, not a named value.
-c  The -c, or check option, is used with the config subcommand and allows the 
user to parse the .cfg file to locate syntax errors. If errors are found, the line 
number and a short description of what is incorrect are displayed. Writes do 
not occur to iDRAC6. This option is a check only.
