Adding and Configuring DRAC 5 Users 97
Example
The following example describes how to add a new user named "John" with a
"123456" password and LOGIN privileges to the RAC.
racadm config -g cfgUserAdmin -o cfgUserAdminUserName
-i 2 john
racadm config -g cfgUserAdmin -o cfgUserAdminPassword
-i 2 123456
racadm config -g cfgUserAdmin -i 2 -o cfgUserPrivilege
0x00000001
racadm config -g cfgUserAdmin -i 2 -o
cfgUserAdminEnable 1
To verify, use one of the following commands:
racadm getconfig -u john
racadm getconfig –g cfgUserAdmin –i 2
Removing a DRAC 5 User
When using RACADM, users must be disabled manually and on an
individual basis. Users cannot be deleted by using a configuration file.
The following example illustrates the command syntax that can be used to
delete a RAC user:
racadm config -g cfgUserAdmin -o cfgUserAdminUserName
-i <index> ""
A null string of double quote characters ("") instructs the DRAC 5 to remove
the user configuration at the specified index and reset the user configuration
to the original factory defaults.
Testing e-mail Alerting
The RAC e-mail alerting feature allows users to receive e-mail alerts when a
critical event occurs on the managed system. The following example shows
how to test the e-mail alerting feature to ensure that the RAC can properly
send out e-mail alerts across the network.
racadm testemail -i 2
NOTE: Ensure that the SMTP and Email Alert settings are configured before testing
the e-mail alerting feature. See "Configuring E-Mail Alerts" for more information.
