RACADM Issue

Question

Trying to collect info from a remote DRAC. Looked at documentation but I receive the following:

racadm -r 10.10.132.101 -u -p getconfig -f myconfig.cfg
Security Alert: Certificate is invalid - Certificate is not signed by Trusted Third Party
Continuing execution. Use -S option for racadm to stop execution on certificate-related errors.
ERROR: The syntax of the command specified is not correct.

Any advice is appreciated.

Thanks

I think you would also want to use –clone so it leaves out system specific info when you use set to import it to the other servers.

Hi, Which model of iDRAC is it? What version is the firmware at?

PowerEdge R730xd iDRAC 8 FW: 2.40.40.40

Use the command get instead of getconfig. 2.40.40.40 removed the getconfig command. Page 30 http://topics-cdn.dell.com/pdf/idrac7-8-lifecycle-controller-v2.40.40.40_reference%20guide_en-us.pdf

Thanks Josh.

So, should I want to export the config for import into other DRACs, I would use this command?

racadm -r -u -p get -f xyz_temp_clone -t xml -u Administrator -p xxx -l //192.168.0/xyz --clone

Our main goal is to export all the alert settings from this iDRAC so we can push out to the others.

Is there a better option or syntax for that?

Thanks
