Remote RACADM

NOTE:
  • By default, TLS version 1.0 is enabled on Windows 2012 R2 which is not supported on the Remote RACADM. Install the latest Windows update available, to upgrade TLS to version 1.1 or higher. Also, set the TLS version in the iDRAC.Webserver.TLSProtocol as appropriate. For more information about Windows update see, support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/3140245/update-to-enable-tls-1-1-and-tls-1-2-as-default-secure-protocols-in-wi
  • Before configuring the webserver settings to TLS version 1.3, ensure that the client OS supports TLS 1.3.
  • If Force Change of Password (FCP) feature is enabled, it is recommended to change the default password using SSH or iDRAC GUI. Changing the default password using Remote RACADM may not be successful. 
racadm -r <racIPAddr> -u <username> -p <password> <subcommand>
Example 
racadm -r 192.168.0.2 -u root -p xxxx getsysinfo 
Security Alert: Certificate is invalid - Certificate is not signed by Trusted Third Party Continuing execution.
NOTE:The following command does not display a security error: 
racadm -r 192.168.0.2 -u noble -p xxx getsysinfo --nocertwarn

The remote RACADM commands must link to the libssl library on the HOST, which corresponds to the version of OpenSSL package installed on the HOST. Perform the following steps to verify and link the library.

  • Check the openssl version installed in the HOST: 
    [root@localhost ~]# openssl
OpenSSL> version
OpenSSL 1.0.1e-fips 11 Feb 2013
OpenSSL>
  • Locate the openSSL libraries are in the HOST machine (/usr/lib64/ in case of RHEL), and to check the various versions of the libraries: 
    [root@localhost ~]# ls -l /usr/lib64/libssl*
-rwxr-xr-x. 1 root root 249368 Oct 15  2013 /usr/lib64/libssl3.so
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root     16 Oct 29  2014 /usr/lib64/libssl.so.10 -> libssl.so.1.0.1e
-rwxr-xr-x. 1 root root 439912 Sep 27  2013 /usr/lib64/libssl.so.1.0.1e
  • Link the library libssl.so using ln -s command to the appropriate OpenSSL version in the HOST: 
    [root@localhost ~]# ln -s /usr/lib64/libssl.so.1.0.1e /usr/lib64/libssl.so
  • Verify if the libssl.so soft linked to libssl.so.1.0.1e: 
    [root@localhost ~]# ls -l /usr/lib64/libssl*
-rwxr-xr-x. 1 root root 249368 Oct 15  2013 /usr/lib64/libssl3.so
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root     27 Aug 28 13:31 /usr/lib64/libssl.so -> /usr/lib64/libssl.so.1.0.1e
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root     16 Oct 29  2014 /usr/lib64/libssl.so.10 -> libssl.so.1.0.1e
-rwxr-xr-x. 1 root root 439912 Sep 27  2013 /usr/lib64/libssl.so.1.0.1e
