racreset
Description Resets the RAC.
Synopsis
racadm racreset
racresetcfg
Description Restores the RAC configuration to factory defaults.
Before or after performing racresetcfg in the member chassis, go to the lead chassis and remove the
member chassis from the MCM group.
Synopsis
racadm racresetcfg
Input
● -f—Resets all management module configurations to the default configuration and preserves the
user-configured and network settings.
Running the racresetcfg command results in the following:
● Clears Management Module Configuration and resets to Initial settings.
● Rediscovers iDRAC.
NOTE: iDRAC discovery may take longer, as the Chassis may not receive the MDNS message from iDRAC immediately.
● Removes the MCM grouping functionality.
NOTE:
The reset_config, reset_all, racresetcfg, FIPS_MODE ON/OFF workflow clear the database and the
user information is not retained. Hence, configuration restoration is logged in DELL_INTERNAL_PROCESS.
NOTE: If the member chassis undergoes a factory reset, it becomes a stand-alone chassis and not a member of the multi-
chassis group. You can remove the member from the lead chassis.
NOTE: After performing any reset operation, wait for the IP address before performing the reset operation again.
