Description
Allows you to set iDRAC configuration parameters individually or to batch them as part of a configuration file and
then modify iDRAC configuration properties. If the data is different, the iDRAC object is written with a new value.
NOTE: This subcommand will be deprecated in the later versions. For information about
configurations, see the set subcommand.
Synopsis
• racadm config -g <group> -o <object> <value>
• racadm config -g <group> -o <object> -i <index> <value>
• racadm config -f <filename> -o [-c] [-p] [-continue]
NOTE:
• The configuration file retrieved using remote RACADM is not interoperable. For the config
racadm -r 192.168.0 -u root -p xxx config -f c:\config.txt command, use the
configuration file retrieved from the same interface. For example, for the config racadm -r
192.168.0 -u root -p xxx config -f c:\config.txt , use the file generated from
getconfig command racadm -r 192.168.0 -u root -p xxx getconfig -f
c:\config.txt.
• -f is only applicable for remote RACADM.
racadm config -g <group> -o <object> <value> [-m <module>]
Input
• -f — The -f <filename> option causes config to read the contents of the file specified by <filename>
and configure iDRAC. The file must contain data in the format specified in the section Parsing Rules in the
iDRAC User’s Guide available at www.dell.com/idracmanuals.
NOTE: The -f option is not supported for the Serial or Telnet or SSH console.
NOTE: When the –f option is specified and configuration of an attribute fails, then configuration
of other attributes in that group is skipped.
• -continue — This option is used with -f option only. If configuration through file is unsuccessful for a group,
then configuration continues with the next group in the file. If this option is not used, then configuration stops
when it is unsuccessful for a particular group. After the unsuccessful group, the rest of the groups are not
configured.
• -p — This option must be used with the -f option. It directs config to delete the password entries contained
in the config file
-f <filename> after the configuration is complete.
To apply the password, you must remove the preceding Read-Only marker '#' in the config file before executing
the
config -f command.
• -g — The -g <groupName>, or group option, must be used with the -o option. The <group> specifies the
group containing the object that is to be set.
• -o — The -o <objectName>, or object option, must be used with the -g option. This option specifies the
object name that is written with the string
• <value> — Value to set to configuration object.
