Supported RACADM Interfaces

The RACADM command-line utility provides a scriptable interface that allows you to locally or remotely configure your Remote Access Controller (RAC). 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.

Introduction 25

The RACADM utility supports the following interfaces:

• Local — Supports executing RACADM commands from the managed server’s operating system. You must install the OpenManage software on the managed server to run local racadm commands. Only one instance of local RACADM can be executed on a system at a time. If the user tries to open another instance, an error message is displayed and the second instance of local RACADM closes immediately.

• SSH or Telnet — Also referred as Firmware racadm. Supports executing RACADM commands from a SSH or Telnet session to iDRAC.

• Remote — Supports executing RACADM commands from a remote management station such as a laptop or desktop computer. You must install the OpenManage software on the remote computer to run remote RACADM commands. To execute remote RACADM commands, you must formulate the command like a local or SSH/Telnet RACADM command except that you must also use the –r –i options or the –r –u –p options. For more information on these options, see the "RACADM Subcommand Details" on page 37.

RACADM Syntax Usage

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

Local RACADM

racadm getconfig -g <groupname> [-o <objectname>] [-i <indexnumber>]

racadm <subcommand>

Example

racadm getconfig -g idracinfo

racadm getsysinfo

26 Introduction

RACADM Subcommand Details

This section provides detailed descriptions of the RACADM subcommands including the syntax and valid entries.

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 quotes or double quotes:

• $ (dollar sign)

•" (double quote)

•' (single quote)

•` (back quote)

•\ (backslash)

•~ (tilde)

• ; (semicolon)

•| (vertical bar)

• ( (left parentheses)

• ) (right parentheses)

•& (ampersand)

• > (greater than)

•< (less than)

• # (pound)

If you do not provide a full path, then the CMC searches the home directory of the specified user for the file 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: When attempting to run firmware update task using "racadm fwupdate"

command, if the firmware image path length is greater than 64 characters, remote RACADM client exits with the error message "ERROR: Specified path is too long".

Input

Table 2-11 describes the fwupdate subcommand options.

NOTE: The -p option is supported on local and remote RACADM and is not

supported with the serial/Telnet/ssh console. The -p option is also not supported on Linux operating systems.
