For more information regarding the password guidelines, see the Dell EMC OpenManage Enterprise-Modular Edition for PowerEdge MX7000 Chassis User's Guide.
Input ● ● ● ● -g—Specifies the configuration group to display -o—Specifies the configuration object to display. This option is used with -g. -i—Specifies the index of indexed group. This option is used with -g. -m—The must have one of the following values: ○ storage-—Where n = 1 to 8 NOTE: The storage- option is available only for cfgStorageModule. ● -h—Displays all the available configuration groups.

3 OpenManage Enterprise Modular property database group and object descriptions You can configure a setting that does not have a hash sign (#) prefixed in the output. To modify a configurable object, use the —o option. Topics: • • • • cfgLanNetworking cfgStorageModule cfgUserAdmin cfgRacTuning cfgLanNetworking This group contains parameters to configure OME-Modular NIC for IPv4. One instance of the group is allowed.
3. racadm config -g cfglannetworking -o cfgDNSServer1 100.69.112.5 For Alternate DNS Server name use cfgDNSServer2 4. racadm config -g cfglannetworking -o cfgDNSRegisterRac 1 If step 1 is applied, to return to the original state. NOTE: You can modify the cfgDNSServer1 and cfgDNSServer2 only when cfgDNSServersFromDHCP is 0. Else, the static DNS server settings are ignored. NOTE: Disable Use DHCP for DNS Domain Name to configure the DNS Domain Name.
● 0 — False Default 0 NOTE: For IPv6, only the DHCPv6 address or static address is registered. Example: racadm getconfig -g cfgLanNetworking cfgDNSServersFromDHCP=1 cfgDNSServer1=192.168.0.5 cfgDNSServer2=192.168.0.6 cfgDNSRacName=cmc-frankly cfgDNSDomainName=fwad.lab cfgDNSDomainNameFromDHCP=1 cfgDNSRegisterRac=1 cfgDNSRacName (Read or Write) Description Displays the management module name, which is Service Tag by default. This parameter is only valid if cfgDNSRegisterRac is set to 1 (TRUE).
The management module can obtain its DNS domain name from either a DHCP or DHCPv6 server, if the following properties are set to 1 (true): ● ● ● ● IPv4Enable NIC Enabled IPv6 Enabled Autoconfiguration Enabled The network administrator must ensure that these DHCP servers are configured to provide the same DNS domain name to the management module. Else, the domain name becomes unpredictable. cfgStorageModule Description This command is used only with the getconfig command.
cfgStorageModuleServiceTag Description Synopsis Input Displays the service tag. cfgStorageModuleServiceTag= cfgStorageModuleServiceTag= Example cfgStorageModuleServiceTag=MX0000 cfgStorageModuleAssetTag Description Synopsis Input Displays the asset tag. cfgStorageModuleAssetTag= cfgStorageModuleAssetTag Example cfgStorageModuleAssetTag=xxxxxx cfgConnectedSlots Description Synopsis Input Displays the connected slots.
cfgUserAdminPassword - Write Only Description The password for this user. User passwords are encrypted and cannot be seen or displayed after the property is written. Legal Values A ● ● ● ● Default ******** string of up to 20 ASCII characters. The following characters are supported in a password: Uppercase letters Lowercase letters Numbers—0-9 Special characters—/, -, _, .
Example racadm config -g cfgRacTuning -o cfgRacTuneMaxAuthRetries 5 The maximum number of authentication attempts that are allowed is nine. The default value is "3".
