Reference Guide

• -p — This option must be used with the -f option. It directs

config to delete the password entries contained in the config

file -f <filename> after the configuration is complete.

To apply the password, you must remove the preceding

Read-Only marker '#' in the config file before executing the

config -f command.

• -g — The -g <groupName>, or group option, must be used

with the -o option. The <group> specifies the group

containing the object that is to be set.

• -o — The -o <objectName>, or object option, must be

used with the

-g option. This option specifies the object

name that is written with the string

• <value> — Value to set to configuration object.

• -i — The -i <index>, or index option, is valid only for

indexed groups and can be used to specify a unique group

(used with -g and -o). The <index> is a decimal integer from

1 through n, where n can vary from 1 to maximum number of

indexes a particular group supports. If -i <index> is not

specified, a value of 1 is assumed for groups, which are tables

that have multiple entries. The index is specified by the index

value, not a named value.

'nx' is allowed for servers.

• -c — The -c or check option, is used with the config

subcommand and allows the user to parse the cfg file to

locate syntax errors. If errors are found, the line number and

a short description of what is incorrect are displayed. Write

permission does not apply to iDRAC. This option is a check

only.

Output

This subcommand generates error output for any of the

following reasons:

• Invalid syntax, group name, object name, index or other

invalid database members.

• If the RACADM command-line interface is unsuccessful.

Examples

• To set the cfgNicIpAddress configuration parameter (object)

to the value 10.35.10.110. This IP address object is contained

in the group cfgLanNetworking.

racadm config -g cfgLanNetworking -o

cfgNicIpAddress 10.35.10.100

• To configure or re-configure iDRAC:

racadm config -f myrac.cfg

The myrac.cfg file may be created from the getconfig

command. This file may also be edited manually using the

parsing rules.
