Modifying the CMC IP Address

When you modify the CMC IP address in the configuration file, remove all unnecessary <variable> = <value> entries. Only the actual variable group’s label with [ and ] remains, including the two <variable> = <value> entries pertaining to the IP address change.
Example:
#
                                    # Object Group "cfgLanNetworking"
                                    #
                                    [cfgLanNetworking]
                                    cfgNicIpAddress=10.35.10.110
                                    cfgNicGateway=10.35.10.1
                                 
This file is updated as follows:
#
                                    # Object Group "cfgLanNetworking"
                                    #
                                    [cfgLanNetworking]
                                    cfgNicIpAddress=10.35.9.143
                                    # comment, the rest of this line is ignored
                                    cfgNicGateway=10.35.9.1
                                 

The command racadm config -f <myfile>.cfg parses the file and identifies any errors by line number. A correct file updates the proper entries. Additionally, you can use the same getconfig command from the previous example to confirm the update.

Use this file to download company-wide changes or to configure new systems over the network with the command, racadm getconfig -f <myfile>.cfg .
