114 Advanced Configuration of the iDRAC6
• All parameters are specified as "object=value" pairs with no white space
between the object, =, or value.
White spaces that are included after the value are ignored. A white space
inside a value string remains unmodified. Any character to the right of the
'=' is taken as is (for example, a second '=', or a '#', '[', ']', and so forth).
These characters are valid modem chat script characters.
See the example in the previous bullet.
•The
.cfg parser ignores an index object entry.
Yo u
cannot specify which index is used. If the index already exists, it is
either used or the new entry is created in the first available index for
that group.
The
racadm getconfig -f <filename> .cfg command places a
comment in front of index objects, allowing the user to see the included
comments.
NOTE: You may create an indexed group manually using the following command:
racadm config -g <groupName> -o <anchored object>
-i <index 1-16> <unique anchor name>
• The line for an indexed group cannot be deleted from a .cfg file.
You must remove an indexed object manually using the following command:
racadm config -g < groupName > -o < objectName > -i
<
index 1-16 > ""
NOTE: A NULL string (identified by two "" characters) directs the iDRAC6 to delete
the index for the specified group.
To view the contents of an indexed group, use the following command:
racadm getconfig -g < groupName > -i < index 1-16 >
• For indexed groups the object anchor must be the first object after the "[ ]"
pair. The following are examples of the current indexed groups:
[cfgUserAdmin]
cfgUserAdminUserName=<
USER_NAME >
If you type racadm getconfig -f <myexample>.cfg , the
command builds a
.cfg file for the current iDRAC6 configuration. This
configuration file can be used as an example and as a starting point for
your unique
.cfg file.
