idrac 9 / RedFish / racadm / LifeCycle Controller

Hi All

I am using Ansible to deploy some new Dell servers into our environment.

This is working well for configuring AD / email / NTP etc... but i would like to configure a partiular setting in the LifeCycle Controller  "Link FEC" = CL74 -Fire Code, which is configured at boot time (F2) them under System Settings --> Device Settings --> (Nic 1....) --> Device Level Configuration

I can't seem to find this anywhere in the documentation, does anyone know where i find a command to set this  ?

Many thanks

Alistair

Hi,

 

I wasn't able to find a way to do this through commands, either, unfortunately. If you can share the specific firmware version you're running, it *MAY* help, but I can't promise that.

 

I'll freely admit that I'm pretty ignorant when it comes to Ansible. That having been said, have you happened to have seen this GitHub page? There might be some value there.

Hi 

iDRAC 9 version is 3.36.36.36(Build 21), I have had a look over the link you provided which help a bit, it's just i'm more intrested in getting the config out of the LifeCycle controller rather than have to set it manually. To be honest i only have another 14servers to do so it will just take me a bit longer to configure.

Cheers

Alistair
