Racadm command to change iDRAC7 nic from shared to dedicated
I am looking for the correct syntax far a racadm command to change the drac nic from shared to dedicated.
I tried this but the group was not recognised:
racadm config -g iDRAC.NIC -o iDRAC.NIC.Selection 1
I got that group from the racadm user guide for iDRAC7
No Events found!

Cameron,
The issue came because you are mixing old syntax and new commands. For this command to work you need to have iDRAC 1.30.30 firmware installed on the server. If iDRAC is not already updated to 1.30.30 you can download the same from below link
Once you update iDRAC firmware to 1.30.30 you can use following command to change iDRAC NIC selection from shared to dedicated mode
racadm set iDRAC.NIC.Selection 1
If iDRAC have old firmware(less than 1.30.30) then you can use below command to change iDRAC nic mode
racadm config -g cfgLAnNetworking -o cfgNicSelection 1
To get help of groups and supported values for various objects in group you can run below commands
racadm help iDRAC.NIC
racadm help cfgLanNetworking

Thank you Shine!
Do you have a link to the pre 1.30.30 IDRAC7 firmware racadm user guide so I reference the correct syntax in the future for iDRAC7s on my network not yet at the latest.
