Using RACADM Remotely
NOTE: Configure the IP address on your DRAC 5 before using the racadm remote
capability. For more information about setting up your DRAC 5 and a list of related
documents, see "Basic Installation of the DRAC 5".
RACADM provides a remote capability option (-r) that allows you to connect
to the managed system and execute racadm subcommands from a remote
console or management station. To use the remote capability, you need a
valid user name (
-u option) and password (-p option), and the DRAC 5
IP address.
NOTE: If the system from where you are accessing the remote system does not
have a DRAC certificate in its default certificate store, a message is displayed when
you type a racadm command.
Security Alert: Certificate is invalid - Name on
Certificate is invalid or does not match site name
Continuing execution. Use –s option for racadm to
stop the execution on certificate-related errors.
