Integrated Dell Remote Access Controller 9 RACADM CLI Guide

Displays the value of one or more objects. The get subcommand has two forms.

• Displays the value of a single object.
• Exports the value of multiple objects to a file.

It supports multiple object value exports in the below file format:

• Server Configuration Profile(SCP) XML and JSON format—XML and JSON format files can be imported from a local file, from an NFS, CIFS, HTTP, HTTPS, FTP and TFTP network share.
  NOTE:You need admin user privilege to perform import and export SCP operations.

Single-object Get

racadm get <FQDD Alias>.<group>

racadm get <FQDD Alias>.<group>.<object>

racadm get <FQDD Alias>.<group>.[<index>].<object>

racadm get <FQDD Alias>.<index>.<group>.<index>.<object>

Multi-object Get

racadm get -f -t xml -l <NFS share>  [--clone | --replace ] [-- includeph]  [--includeCustomTelemetry]

racadm get -f -t xml -u -p -l <CIFS share> [--clone | --replace ] [--includeph] [--includeCustomTelemetry]

• <FQDD Alias>
  • Examples for FQDDs
    • System.Power
    • System.Power.Supply
    • System.Location
    • LifecycleController.LCAttributes
    • System.LCD
    • iDRAC.Serial

For the list of supported groups and objects under the get command, see Database objects with get and set commands.

• <group>—Specifies the group containing the object that must be read.
• <object>—Specifies the object name of the value that must be read.
• <index>—Specifies where FQDD Aliases or Groups must be indexed.
• -f <filename>—This option enables you to export multiple object values to a file. This option is not supported in the Firmware RACADM interface.
• -u—Specifies user name of the remote CIFS share to which the file must be exported.
• -p—Specifies password for the remote CIFS share to which the file must be exported.
• -l—Specifies network share location to which the file is exported.
• -t—Specifies the file type to be exported.

  The valid values are:

  • JSON—It exports the SCP JSON file to a network share file.
  • xml—It exports the SCP xml format file, either to a local or network share file.
• --clone—Gets the configuration .xml files without system-related details such as service tag. The .xml file received does not have any virtual disk creation option.
• --replace—Gets the configuration .xml files with the system-related details such as service tag.
• -c—Specifies the FQDD or list of FQDDs separated by ',' of the components for which the configurations should be exported. If this option is not specified, the configuration related to all the components are exported.
• --includeph—Specifies that the output of the passwords included in the exported configuration .xml file are in the hashed format.
  NOTE:if --includeph is not used, the output of the passwords are in the .xml file in clear text.
• --customdefaults—Exports custom default configuration to file. Supports only with XML file type and local share.
• --includeCustomTelemetry—Includes Telemetry Custom Metric Report Definitions (MRDs) in the configuration XML file.

This command does not support proxy parameters. To perform the operation with http and https, the proxy parameters has to be configured in the lifecyclecontroller.lcattributes. Once these proxy parameters are configured, they become the part of default configuration. They have to be removed to ignore the proxy parameters.

This command does not support setting the proxy parameters if the share location (-l) is HTTP/HTTPS. To perform the operation with HTTP or HTTPS through a proxy, the proxy parameters must be first configured using the lifecyclecontroller.lcattributes. Once these proxy parameters are configured, they become the part of default configuration; the proxy attributes should be cleared to end use of the HTTP/HTTPS proxy.

To view the list of proxy attributes, use racadm get lifecycleController.lcAttributes.
