Users Guide

• If you have used the getconfig command:
[cfgUserAdmin]
# cfgUserAdminIndex=11
cfgUserAdminUserName=
# cfgUserAdminPassword=******** (Write-Only)
cfgUserAdminEnable=0
cfgUserAdminPrivilege=0x00000000
cfgUserAdminIpmiLanPrivilege=15
cfgUserAdminIpmiSerialPrivilege=15
cfgUserAdminSolEnable=0
• If you have used the get command:
[idrac.users.16]
Enable=Disabled
IpmiLanPrivilege=15
IpmiSerialPrivilege=15
!!Password=******** (Write-Only)
Privilege=0x0
SNMPv3AuthenticationType=SHA
SNMPv3Enable=Disabled
SNMPv3PrivacyType=AES
SolEnable=Disabled
UserName=
• The indexes are read-only and cannot be modified. Objects of the indexed group are bound to the index under which they are listed
and any valid configuration to the object value is applicable only to that particular index.
• A predefined set of indexes are available for each indexed group. For more information, see the iDRAC8 RACADM Command Line
Interface Reference Guide available at dell.com/support/manuals .
• Use the racresetcfg subcommand to reset the iDRAC to the default setting, and then run the racadm config -f
<filename>.cfg or racadm set -f <filename>.cfg command. Make sure that the .cfg file includes all required objects,
users, indexes, and other parameters.
CAUTION:
Use the racresetcfg subcommand to reset the database and the iDRAC NIC settings to the default settings
and remove all users and user configurations. While the root user is available, other user settings are also reset to the
default settings.
Parsing Rules
• All lines that start with '#' are treated as comments. A comment line must start in column one. A '#' character in any other column is
treated as a '#' character. Some modem parameters may include # characters in its string. An escape character is not required. You
may want to generate a .cfg from a racadm getconfig -f <filename> .cfg command, and then perform a racadm
config -f <filename> .cfg command to a different iDRAC, without adding escape characters. Example:
#
# This is a comment
[cfgUserAdmin]
cfgUserAdminPageModemInitString=<Modem init # not a comment>
• All group entries must be surrounded by "[" and "]" characters. The starting "[" character denoting a group name must start in
column one. This group name
must be specified before any of the objects in that group. Objects that do not include an associated
group name generate an error. The configuration data is organized into groups as defined in the iDRAC8 RACADM Command Line
Interface Reference Guide available at dell.com/support/manuals. The following example displays a group name, object, and the
object’s property value.
[cfgLanNetworking] -{group name}
cfgNicIpAddress=143.154.133.121 {object name}
• 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.
