racresetcfg
Description Deletes your current iDRAC or CMC configuration and resets iDRAC or CMC to the factory
default settings. After reset, the default name and password are root and calvin,
respectively, and the IP address is 192.168.0.120. Only for iDRAC Enterprise on Blade
servers, IP address and the number of the slot the server inhabits in the chassis.
If you run racresetcfg from a network client (for example, a supported web browser,
Telnet/SSH, or Remote RACADM), use the default IP address. The racresetcfg
subcommand does not reset the cfgDNSRacName object.
To run this subcommand for iDRAC, you must have the Configure iDRAC privilege. For
CMC, you must have the Chassis Administrator privilege.
NOTE: Certain firmware processes must be stopped and restarted to complete the
reset to defaults. iDRAC or CMC becomes unresponsive for about 30 seconds while
this operation completes.
