iDRAC7 - CSR is empty

Hi,

Please follow this article here and it should work.

kind regards

Tom

Hi Tom,

thank you for the link, but this can't resolve my problem.

The csr-download-size from the iDRAC7-Website is 0kB!

When i connect over ssh to the iDRAC and set the params with racadm set ... then the last command

sslcertgen -g

failed with an error without detailed information.

How can i do more?

Hi Tom,

that's the reason. I use a + in Organisationsname. In OpenSSL this is a valid character but the iDrac can't work with this!

So i cannot use our internal PKI, while the Organisationsname includes the + in the name. IMHO this is a bug in the firmware. In an older version of iDrac-firmware i use the same Organisationsname and i export the csr successfully.

Thank's for your help.

Hi Tom,

no, it doesn't work with \ ' or " - quotation. This escapes only characters in the command-line but not the arguments of the parameter for csr-generation.

Hi Andreas,

Oh! Thanks for your feedback. I think you need to quote these special chars. Can you checkout this manual at page 23 please. Maybe this can help for the + character too.

cheers

Tom

Sorry, than we have no solution for that at the moment. :(
