Supported RACADM Interfaces

The RACADM command-line utility provides a scriptable interface that allows you to remotely congure your Chassis Management Controller (CMC). The utility runs on the management station and the managed system. It is available on the Dell OpenManage Systems Management and Documentation DVD or at support.dell.com.
The RACADM utility supports the following interfaces:
SSH or Telnet — Also referred as Firmware RACADM, is accessible by logging in to CMC using SSH or telnet. You do not have to specify the CMC IP, user name or password to run Firmware RACADM commands.
Remote — Supports executing RACADM commands from a remote management station such as a laptop or desktop. You must install the DRAC Tools utility from the OpenManage software on the remote computer to run Remote RACADM commands. To execute Remote RACADM commands, you must formulate the command such as a an SSH/Telnet RACADM command except that you must also use the –r –i options or the –r –u –p options. For more information about these options, see the "RACADM Subcommand Details."

RACADM Syntax Usage

The following section describes the syntax usage for SSH/Telnet and Remote RACADM.

Guidelines to Quote Strings Containing Special Characters When Using RACADM Commands

When using strings that contain special characters, use the following guidelines:
Strings containing the following special characters must be quoted using single quotation marks or double quotation marks:
$ (dollar sign)
" (double quotation marks)
' (single quotation marks)
` (back quotation marks)
\ (backslash)
~ (tilde)
; (semicolon)
| (vertical bar)
( (left parentheses)
) (right parentheses)
& (ampersand)
> (greater than)
< (less than)
# (pound)
ASCII code 32 (space)
NOTE: The - (dash) character cannot be the rst character of the string, regardless of whether the string is quoted.
There are dierent escaping rules for using single quotation mark and double quotation marks.
For double quoting:
The following characters must be escaped by prepending a backslash:
$ (dollar sign)
" (double quotation marks)
' (single quotation marks)
` (back quotation marks)
\ (backslash)
For example, use the following for a string that contains the special characters, $, ",',`and \.
For single quotation marks:
No character escaping is necessary.
18
A single quotation mark cannot be used even with a backslash escaped.
NOTE: An empty string may be specied as either "" (using double quotation marks) or '' (using single quotation mark).

Synopsis
Input
Output This subcommand generates error output for any of the following reasons:
racadm config [-c|-p] -f <filename>
racadm config -g <groupName> -o <objectName> [-i <
index>] <Value>
NOTE: The conguration le retrieved using remote racadm are not interoperable. For the cong -f <
le name
NOTE: The -f and -p options are not supported for the serial/Telnet/SSH console.
-f — The -f <lename> option causes cong to read the contents of the le specied by <lename> and congure CMC.
-p— This option must be used with the -f option. It directs cong to delete the password entries contained in the cong le -f <lename> after the conguration is complete.
To apply the password, you must remove the preceding Read-Only marker '#' in the cong le before executing the cong -f command.
-g— The -g <groupName>, or group option, must be used with the -o option. The <groupName> species the group containing the object that is to be set.
-o — The -o <objectName> <Value>, or object option, must be used with the -g option. This option species the object name that is written with the string <value>.
-i — The -i <index>, or index option, is valid only for indexed groups and can be used to specify a unique group. 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 specied, a value of 1 is assumed for groups, which are tables that have multiple entries. The index is specied by the index value, not a named value.
-c — The -c, or check option, is used with the cong subcommand and allows the user to parse the .cfg le to locate syntax errors. If issues are found, the line number and a short description about the issue is displayed. This option is a check-only.
> command, use the conguration le retrieved from the same interface.
Examples
26
Invalid syntax, group name, object name, index, or other invalid database members.
RACADM CLI failures.
This subcommand returns an indication of the number of conguration objects that were written out of the total objects in the .cfg le.
racadm config -g cfgLanNetworking -o cfgNicIpAddress 192.168.0.5. Sets the cfgNicIpAddress conguration parameter (object) to the value 192.168.0.5. This IP address
object is contained in the cfgLanNetworking group.
racadm config -f myrac.cfg.
Congures or recongures CMC. The myrac.cfg le may be created from the getcong command. This le may also be edited manually as long as the parsing rules are followed.
NOTE: The myrac.cfg le does not contain passwords. To include passwords in the le, you must enter them manually. If you want to remove password information from the myrac.cfg le during conguration, use the -p option.

fwupdate

Description
Allows you to update the rmware on the active and standby CMC rmware, chassis infrastructure rmware, and storage component rmware (RAID controller, hard disk drive, and expander). You can:
Check the rmware update process status.
Update the rmware from a FTP or a TFTP server by providing an IP address and optional path.
Update the rmware from the local le system using remote RACADM.
The subcommand updates one or more devices of a single type at a time.
To use this subcommand, you must have the Chassis Conguration Administrator privilege.
NOTE:
Running the subcommand to update the active CMC rmware resets the CMC, causing all network connections to get logged o. While updating all other modules, including the standby CMC, the active CMC continues to function normally without resetting.
The subcommand generates an error, when used on the extension slot of a multi-slot server.
The CMC rmware cannot be updated to any earlier version other than 2.0 for a chassis that is congured with 1600W PSU.
CMC rmware update or roll back is supported only for rmware versions 1.2, 1.25, 1.3, 1.31, 1.35,
1.36, 2.0, and later. For any version other than these, rst update to any of these versions, and then update to the required version.
For 13th generation and later, CMC rmware includes a signature which is veried by CMC before update to ensure the authenticity of the uploaded rmware. The rmware update process is successful only if the rmware image is authenticated by CMC to be a valid image from the service provider and has not been altered. The rmware update process is stopped if CMC cannot verify the signature of the uploaded rmware image.
Upload rmware image from TFTP server and start rmware update.
Synopsis
Input
NOTE: Run the rmware update command through only one remote racadm session at a time.
Using Remote RACADM:
racadm -r fwupdate -p -u -d <firmware image>
NOTE: iDRAC7 targets are not supported from CMC. Use the CMC GUI to update iDRAC7 targets from CMC.
When using FTP, if you provide the full path to the image le on the CLI, then the CMC uses that path to locate that le on the host. If you do not provide a full path, then the CMC searches the home directory of the specied user for the le if the host system is running Linux or another variant of UNIX. If the host system is running Windows, then a default folder, such as C:\ftproot is searched.
NOTE: While performing rmware update using the racadm fwupdate command, if the number of characters in the rmware image path is greater than 256 characters, Remote RACADM session logs o with the error message ERROR: Specified path is too long.
racadm fwupdate -g -u -a 192.168.0.100 -d firmimg.cmc -m cmc-active
NOTE: Firmware update from local RACADM (using the -p, -u, or -d options) is not supported on Linux operating system.
-p — The -p option is used to update the rmware le from the client. The -u option must be used with the -p option.
-f — The FTP is used to download the rmware.
-g — For CMC, the rmware is downloaded using the TFTP server.
-u — The rmware update operation is performed.
-a Species the TFTP server IP address or FQDN used for the rmware image (used with -g).
32
NOTE: CMC accepts IPv4, IPv6, or fully qualied domain names (FQDN) for both FTP and TFTP servers.
-d Species the source path where the rmware image is stored.
NOTE: The default source path is local Default: Designated TFTP default directory on that host for the le if -g option is absent. If -g is used, it defaults to a directory congured on the TFTP server.
-o — Turns o the servers to perform an update.
-m <module>— Species the module or device to be updated. <module> is one of the following values:
NOTE: You can also specify multiple modules:
– cmc-active (default) – cmc-standby – iominf-n, where n = 1
NOTE: You can specify the cmc-active and cmc-standby modules at the same time along with one or more server-n modules. This enables the devices to be updated together.
– main-board – perc-fqdd, where fqdd is FQDD of the PERC – expander-fqdd, where fqdd is FQDD of the Storage Expander – hdd-fqdd, where fqdd is FQDD of the HDD
-s — Displays the current status of the rmware update.
NOTE: Use -m to display the status of the module update. Omit -m to display the status of the active CMC update.
NOTE: Use all to get the status of all the targets that must be updated.
–m <module 1> –m <module 2>
, and so on.

License Type = EVALUATION Entitlement ID = A2Wir6lJ1MoP8iBAtqsEKDv8 Expiration = 1982-04-07T21:00:00
– Display licenses available on a specic device. For example, for RAID slot 4:
racadm license view -c RAID.slot.4
Import a license:
– Import a license from a CIFS share to a device (for example, Integrated CMC):
racadm license import -u admin -p passwd -f License.xml -l //
192.168.2.140/licshare -c cmc.integrated.1
– Import a license from an NFS share to a device (for example, Integrated CMC):
racadm license import -f License.xml -l 192.168.2.14:/share -c cmc.integrated.1
– Import a license from the local le system using Remote RACADM:
racadm -u admin -p passwd -r 192.168.0.120 license import -f C: \Mylicdir\License.xml -c cmc.integrated.1
Export a license le:
– Export license to an NFS share using transaction ID (for example, transaction 27).
racadm license export -f License.xml -l 192.168.2.140:/licshare ­t 27
– Export the license to a CIFS share specifying the entitlement ID (for example, abcdxyz):
racadm license export -u admin -p passwd -f License.xml -l //
192.168.2.140/licshare -e abcdxyz
– Export license to a CIFS share specifying the FQDD. While using the -c option and exporting
licenses from a device, more than one license le must be exported. Therefore, if a le name is provided, an index is appended to the end of the le name such as LicenseFile0.xml, LicenseFile1.xml, and so on. In this case, the device is an embedded CMC:
racadm license export -u root -p calvin -f LicenseFile.xml -l //
192.168.2.140/licshare -c cmc.integrated.1
Delete a license:
– Delete licenses on a particular device. For example. Integrated CMC:
racadm license delete -c cmc.integrated.1
– Delete license using an entitlement ID. For example, xYZabcdefg
racadm license delete -e xYZabcdefg
– Delete license using a transaction ID. For example, 2.
racadm license delete -t 2
Replace a license.
63
– Replace the license on a device with a license le that is on an NFS share, and using a
transaction ID. For example, transaction 27.
racadm license replace -f License.xml -l 192.168.2.140:/licshare
-t 27
– Replace license on a device with a license le that is on a CIFS share and using a transaction
ID. For example, transaction 27.
racadm license replace -u admin -p passwd -f License.xml -l //
192.168.2.140/licshare -t 27
– Replace license on a device with a license le on the local le system.

setractime

Description Sets the date and time on the CMC.
To use this subcommand, you must have the Administrator privilege.
Synopsis
Input
racadm setractime -d <yyyymmddhhmmss.mmmmmmso>
racadm setractime -l YYYYMMDDhhmmss
racadm setractime -z {?|timezone|timezone-prex*}
-d — Sets the time to value in the string:
— yyyy is the year
— mm is the month
— dd is the day
— hh is the hour
— mm is the minutes
— ss is the seconds
— mmmmmm is the number of microseconds
— s is a + (plus) sign or a - (minus) sign, which indicates the sign of the oset.
o is the oset in minutes
NOTE: 'O' is the oset in minutes from GMT and must be in 15-minute increments. The timezone is represented as an oset from GMT, and the clock does not automatically adjust to daylight savings time (for the '-d' option).
-z <zone> - Sets the time zone by name or index, or lists possible time zones. For example, PST8PDT (Western United States), 294 (Seoul), 344 (Sydney). <zone> may be:
— <?> lists the major timezone names/prexes.
94
— <timezone> is the case-sensitive name of your timezone or the index listed by '-z timezone-prex*'.
— <timezone-prex*> is a prex of one or more timezones, followed by '*'.
NOTE: The timezone or daylight savings time is fully supported for '-l' and '-z' options. Omit the '-l' option to set the timezone only (eg. '-z US/Central').
-l — Sets the local date and time in the string yyymmddhhmmss where:
— yyyy is the year
— mm is the month
— dd is the day
— hh is the hour
— mm is the minute
— ss is the second
— Setting the time using the -l and -z options is recommended. This command format allows the CMC to fully support local time zones, including the ability to automatically adjust the CMC time to the local Daylight Savings Time.
