84 Advanced Configuration of the DRAC 5
To configure multiple DRAC 5 cards, perform the following procedures:
1
Use RACADM to query the target DRAC 5 that contains the appropriate
configuration.
NOTE: The generated .cfg file does not contain user passwords.
Open a command prompt and type:
racadm getconfig -f myfile.cfg
NOTE: Redirecting the RAC configuration to a file using getconfig -f is only
supported with the local and remote RACADM interfaces.
2 Modify the configuration file using a simple text editor (optional).
3 Use the new configuration file to modify a target RAC.
In the command prompt, type:
racadm config -f myfile.cfg
4
Reset the target RAC that was configured.
In the command prompt, type:
racadm reset
The getconfig -f racadm.cfg subcommand requests the DRAC 5
configuration and generates the racadm.cfg file. If required, you can
configure the file with another name.
You can use the getconfig command to enable you to perform the following
actions:
• Display all configuration properties in a group (specified by group name
and index)
• Display all configuration properties for a user by user name
The config subcommand loads the information into other DRAC 5s. Use config
to synchronize the user and password database with Server Administrator
