Hello,

The command to delete an iDRAC user is:

racadm config -g cfgUserAdmin -o cfgUserAdminUserName -i <user_id> ""

Replace <user_id> with the ID of the user you want to delete. You can retrieve the user ID by running the racadm getconfig -g cfgUserAdmin command and looking for the user you want to delete.

After executing the command, the iDRAC user will be deleted. You can verify the deletion by listing the iDRAC users using the racadm getconfig -g cfgUserAdmin command.

@Dell -Charles R​ Thank you for your assistance.

I have tried running the two commands below in this order and I have received the below error, can you please further assist me?

1.

racadm getconfig -g cfgUserAdmin 

/admin1-> racadm getconfig -g cfgUserAdmin
ERROR: The indexed group specified requires -i <index>.

RAC1168: The RACADM "getconfig" command will be deprecated in a future version of iDRAC firmware. Run the RACADM
"racadm get" command to retrieve the iDRAC configuration parameters.

2.

racadm getconfig -g cfgUserAdmin

/admin1-> racadm getconfig -g cfgUserAdmin -i
ERROR: The syntax of the command specified is not correct.

Hello,

Try dropping the "racadm" at the beginning of the command line and use just the remainder:

getconfig -g cfgUserAdmin

config -g cfgUserAdmin -o cfgUserAdminUserName -i <user_id> ""

You replace <user_id> with the user ID. Be sure to have spaces where the ^ is

Example:

-i^3^""

@DELL-Charles R​ Thank you for your assistance.

I have tried running the command below and I have received the below error, can you please further assist me?

racadm>>getconfig -g cfgUserAdmin -i
racadm getconfig -g cfgUserAdmin -i

For more information on the get command, run the RACADM command
"racadm help get".

Hello spdouts,

Are you SSH in to the DRAC?

If so I was recommending to try dropping the 'racadm' at the beginning of the command line:

Instead of this:

racadm getconfig -g cfgUserAdmin

Type:

getconfig -g cfgUserAdmin

Another method you may try is to edit the Server Configuration Profile.

Try export a Server Configuration Profiles (SCP), then blank out all the User attributes for the user you are editing with double empty quote "" and then import it

Server Configuration Profiles: Reference Guide

SCP Export page 15

SCP Import page 21

https://dell.to/4bVqlr9

You can use LifeCycle controller to export/import SCP from USB Key. Refer below link for details

https://dell.to/3A3pjM8

Time mark :59 seconds you can Export and Import from there

*Be sure to keep a copy of the original SCP in case you need to restore that.

Yes I'm in SSH via putty

Right after I have authenticated, I am in at the prompt as below

/admin1->

When I run this command 

getconfig -g cfgUserAdmin

I get the below error

"

/admin1-> getconfig -g cfgUserAdmin
cmdstat
        status       : 2
        status_tag   : COMMAND PROCESSING FAILED
        error        : 253
        error_tag    : COMMAND NOT RECOGNIZED
/admin1->

"

Method 2

I tried the SCP option one however I dont understand what blanking out means with ""

Hello,

Thank you for trying without the racadm. There are some racadm commands that are understood and you can drop the racadm but it seems it is not those commands.

Try these steps and check results:

Run the following command to disable a user:

racadm set iDRAC.Users.<username>.Enable 0

Replace <username> with the username of the user you want to disable.

Press Enter to execute the command.

Verify that the user has been disabled by running the following command:

racadm get iDRAC.Users.<username>.Enable

This command will display the current enable status of the user. If the value is "0", it means the user is disabled.

@DELL-Charles R​ 

Thank your reply, however I am not trying to disable this account, I have trying to delete.

Hi,

Could you try these below:

racadm set idrac.users.3.enable 0

racadm set idrac.users.3.delete 1

@DELL-Erman O​ 

Thank you for your response, I have executed both of those commands as suggested

The 'enable 0' command worked however the 'delete 1' command provided an error as per below, can you please further assist?

racadm/Users>set idrac.users.3.enable 0
racadm set idrac.users.3.enable 0
[Key=idrac.Embedded.1#Users.3]
Object value modified successfully

racadm/Users>set idrac.users.3.delete 1
racadm set idrac.users.3.delete 1
