racadm lclog view -k doesn't work
I would like to view some LC logs using racadm command. As it's written here there is '-k' flag which "filters the records based on the filter string provided in racadm lclog view command".
So in order to filter particular iDRAC agent message which has particular RACXXXX code I tried to use command as below but got an error:
ssh root@ racadm lclog view -k RAC0182 ERROR: The syntax of the command specified is not correct.
I tried to execute a command given as an example in the mentioned above racadm cli guide but it also failed:
ssh root@ racadm lclog view -k session ERROR: The syntax of the command specified is not correct.
Firmware versions:
ssh root@ racadm getversion Bios Version = 2.8.0 iDRAC Version = 2.60.60.60 Lifecycle Controller Version = 2.60.60.60 IDSDM Version = NA
So I wonder what a proper syntax for '-k' flag usage is?

you are correct, the -k parameter doesnt work. It does work on our 14th Gen systems, which use a different version of idrac fw, which isnt compatible with 12g and 13G systems. I believe you have a 13G system based on the bios version you have. if you do a: racadm lclog help view , it doesnt list the -k parameter as a valid option. The 14G systems do list it as a valid parameter. There are 2 possibilities, either the documentation is wrong and it wont be a valid parameter for 12G and 13G systems, or there was a mistake made and it wasnt added in.
I will check with the idrac team, but I'm not sure when I'll get a reply due to the holidays.
