RACADM Subcommand Details 27

config

NOTE: To use this subcommand, you must have Log In iDRAC permission.

Synopsis

racadm config [-c|-p] -f <filename>

racadm config -g <groupName> -o <objectName> [-i

Description

The config subcommand allows you to set iDRAC6 configuration parameters

individually or to batch them as part of a configuration file. If the data is

different, that iDRAC6 object is written with the new value.

NOTE: The configuration file retrieved using remote racadm and local racadm are

not interoperable. The configuration file retrieved using remote racadm shows the

index property for some of the indexed groups as read-write, for example

cfgSSADRoleGroupIndex. For the config -f <file name> command, use

the configuration file retrieved from the same interface. For example, for local

racadm config -f <file name>, use the file generated from the local

racadm command getconfig -f <file name>.

Input

Table 2-2 describes the config subcommand options.

NOTE: The -f and -p options are not supported for the serial/Telnet/ssh console.
