config

Table 1. ConfigThe following table contains description and inputs available in the config command.
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 <groupName> -o <objectName> [-i <index>] <Value> NOTE The configuration file retrieved using remote racadm are not interoperable. For the config -f <file name> command, use the configuration file retrieved from the same interface.
Input	NOTE The -f and -p options are not supported for the serial/Telnet/SSH console. -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 executing 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 192.168.0.5. Sets the cfgNicIpAddress configuration parameter (object) to the value 192.168.0.5. 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. NOTE The myrac.cfg file does not contain passwords. To include passwords in the file, you must enter them manually. If you want to remove password information from the myrac.cfg file during configuration, use the -p option.
