Finding out iDrac IPs from CMC command line

Hello!

Is there some way i can list (from the M1000 CMC cmd line) which slot/blade has which iDrac IP?

I mean, i can "deploy" a blade/slot from the CMC cmd line, but i cant find a cmd that lists blade-IPs?!
There must be some, right?

    you can run below racadm command on CMC to get the iDRAC IP address of blades

    racadm getniccfg -m server-X

    X is slot number for which we need to get iDRAC IP address

    E.g. racadm getniccfg -m server-1

    Run below command to get more help on getniccfg command

    racadm help getniccfg

    Hi, please see below.

     

    Connecting through the CMC

    Step 1

    Connect one end of a DB-9 null-modem or crossover cable to the RS-232 console serial port of the CMC.
    Connect the other end of the cable to the RS-232 console serial port of the PC.

    Step 2

    On the PC terminal emulation program:

    1. Set the data format to 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, and no parity.
    2. Set the terminal emulation speed to 115200 baud.

    c. Set Flow Control to none.

    d. Under Properties, select VT100 for Emulation mode.

    e. Select Terminal keys for Function, Arrow, and Ctrl keys. Ensure that the setting is for Terminal keys (not Windows keys).

    Step 3

    On the console monitor, the CMC application displays a login screen. Log in by using these defaults:

    username root

    password calvin

    Viewing and Modifying CMC Network LAN Settings Using RACADM

    Use the command getconfig -g cfgcurrentlannetworking to view IPv4 settings.

    Use the command getconfig -g cfgCurrentIPv6LanNetworking to view IPv6 settings.

    To view IPv4 and IPv6 addressing information for the chassis, use getsysinfo subcommand.

     

    Enabling the CMC Network Interface

    To enable/disable the CMC Network Interface for both IPv4 and IPv6, type:

    racadm config -g cfgLanNetworking -o cfgNicEnable 1

    racadm config -g cfgLanNetworking -o cfgNicEnable 0
