Dell Chassis Management Controller Version 2.0 for PowerEdge FX2 and FX2s RACADM CLI Guide

Description

Allows you to set CMC configuration parameters individually or to batch them as part of a configuration file. If the data is different, that CMC object is written with the new value.

Synopsis

• racadm config [-c|-p] -f < filename >
• racadm config -g < group name > -o < object name > [-i < index >] < value >

Input

• -f — The -f < filename > option causes config to read the contents of the file specified by < filename > and configure CMC.
• -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 running the config -f command.

• -g — The -g < groupName >, or group option, must be used with the -o option. The < groupName > specifies 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 specifies 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 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.
• -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 issues are found, the line number and a short description about the issue is displayed. 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.
• RACADM CLI failures.

This subcommand returns an indication of the number of configuration objects that were written out of the total objects in the .cfg file.

Examples

• racadm config -g cfgLanNetworking -o cfgNicIpAddress 192.168.0.1 .

  Sets the cfgNicIpAddress configuration parameter (object) to the value 192.168.0.1. This IP address object is contained in the cfgLanNetworking group.

• racadm config -f myrac.cfg.

  Configures or reconfigures CMC. The myrac.cfg file may be created from the getconfig command. This file may also be edited manually as long as the parsing rules are followed.
