Change BMC gateway IP without a reboot?

Hello cameron

Some of our BMC/iDRACs will allow you to perform a soft reset via RACADM commands that do not require a full system restart. It will just restart the iDRAC/BMC. I can't say for sure that the soft reset will update the gateway information because I haven't tested it.

What iDRAC/BMC and server model do you have?

Thanks

Thanks Daniel.

A wide variety :)

For DRAC I have 5, 6 and 7 versions in my network and for servers I have R310, R410, R510, R610, R620, R710, R720 and R810.

Does Dell have a spreadsheet showing what models can and can't be soft reset via RACADM commands?

All of those should work.

Any system with a DRAC 5, 6, 7, or 8 should be able to run this command. The systems that only have the BMC option won't be able to, and I would have to double check on cloud systems and any others.
