210 racadm Subcommand Man Pages
Description
The racreset subcommand issues a reset to the DRAC 4. The user is allowed
to select how many seconds of delay occur before the reset sequence is
started. The reset event is written into the DRAC 4 log.
The default option is soft. If you do not type an option, the racadm CLI waits
three seconds and then runs the soft option with the racreset subcommand.
CAUTION: You must reboot your system after performing a hard reset of the
DRAC 4 as described in Table A-25.
Table A-25 describes the racreset subcommand options.
Examples
• racadcm racreset soft 1
Start the DRAC 4 soft reset sequence in 1 second.
• racadm racreset soft 20
Start the DRAC 4 soft reset sequence after 20 seconds.
Table A-25. racreset Subcommand Options
Option Description
hard A hard reset resets the entire DRAC 4 and is as close to a power-on
reset as can be achieved using software. The DRAC 4 log, database, and
selected daemons are shut down gracefully prior to the reset. A hard
reset should be considered as a final effort. PCI configuration is lost.
soft A soft reset is a processor and processor subsystem reset that resets the
processor core to restart the software. PCI configurations are preserved.
The DRAC 4 log, database, and selected daemons are shut down
gracefully prior to the reset.
graceful A graceful reset is the same as a soft reset.
<delay> The user is allowed to select how many seconds of delay occur before
the reset sequence is started. A valid delay entry is between 1-60
seconds. The default is 3 seconds.
