Changing SNMP sysContact.0 Information
Hello. I am trying to find out where to change the SNMP sysContact.0 and sysLocation.0 and even the sysDescr.0 fields on the iDRAC. When you do a SNMP Walk of the iDRAC it brings back the following.
| sysDescr.0 | OctetString | x.x.x.x:161 | |
| sysObjectID.0 | .1.3.6.1.4.1.674.10892.5 | OID | x.x.x.x:161 |
| sysUpTime.0 | 15 hours 47 minutes 34 seconds (5685426) | TimeTicks | x.x.x.x:161 |
| sysContact.0 | "support@dell.com" | OctetString | x.x.x.x:161 |
| sysName.0 | idrac-XXXXXXX | OctetString | x.x.x.x:161 |
| sysLocation.0 | "unknown" | OctetString | x.x.x.x:161 |
I believe that the sysName.0 can be changed from the iDRAC settings in system setup but I am unable to find where to change the other data.
FYI this is an iDRAC 7 Enterprise on a PE R720
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Hi Daniel. I have looked thru the GUI but cannot find a place to change those. There IS a section where you can change the System location (Overview/Server/Details/System Location) BUT it does not change sysLocation.0, it just updates the location on the summary page.
I will look thru the CLI guide and see if I am able to (or smart enough to) update that field.
Thanks!

Hello
You should be able to set all of that in the iDRAC web GUI. The only option I don't think is available through the EWS is the manufacturer contact information. You may be able to set that via command line. The iDRAC manual and CLI guide should be on the system support page. If not, you can find documentation on the iDRAC support page.

Check this section in the CLI guide, it may allow you to set the OEM contact information.
