Description

Retrieves CMC configuration parameters individually, or all CMC configuration groups may be retrieved and saved to a file.

Synopsis

racadm getconfig -f <filename>

racadm getconfig -g <groupName> [-i <index>]

racadm getconfig -u <username>

racadm getconfig -h

racadm getconfig -g <groupName> -o <objectName>
[-i index]

Input

• -f — The -f <filename> option directs getconfig to write the entire iDRAC configuration to a configuration file. This file can be used for batch configuration operations using the config subcommand.
• -g — The -g <groupName>, or group option, can be used to display the configuration for a single group. The groupName is the name for the group used in the racadm.cfg files. If the group is an indexed group, use the -i option.
• -h — The -h, or help option, displays a list of all available configuration groups in alphabetical order. This option is useful when you do not have exact group names.
• -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.
• -o — The -o <objectname> or object option specifies the object name that is used in the query. This option is optional and can be used with the -g option.
• -u — The -u <username>, or user name option, can be used to display the configuration for the specified user. The <username> option is the login name for the user.
• -v — The -v option displays additional details with the display of the properties and is used with the -g option.
