Racadm GET wildcard
Racadm is slow and I want to use it in a script to check and fix the list if idrac users.
I can run
racadm get racadm -r server -u root -p pass get iDRAC.Users.1
racadm get racadm -r server -u root -p pass get iDRAC.Users.2
racadm get racadm -r server -u root -p pass get iDRAC.Users.3
racadm get racadm -r server -u root -p pass get iDRAC.Users.4
racadm get racadm -r server -u root -p pass get iDRAC.Users.5
racadm get racadm -r server -u root -p pass get iDRAC.Users.6
racadm get racadm -r server -u root -p pass get iDRAC.Users.7
etc... and wait for each one to complete.
But can I just run racadm get racadm -r server -u root -p pass get iDRAC.Users.* to get all of the user data in one command? Why not? Or what is the right syntax?

Sounds like a pretty awful oversight from Dell.
What about racadm get -f /tmp/somefile.out
It takes like 3 minutes to execute. And it doesn't write to standard out. Yuck. But that seems to retrieve all the parameters too me, even if it does force me to work with a separate file.
Im working on a script to bring our racadm configs into conformance with one another and I would rather only update what needs updating than push ever setting given how unbearably slow every interaction with racadm already is.
So it's a big help to retrieve all config first so I can inspect it before sending set commands.
Too bad I can't batch those set commands too.

Hi @f5gh,
Unfortunately, I checked out the RACADM CLi user guide and couldn't find any Input method to show all listed for GET command. So, you will need to use the GET command for each user index.
