Using FlexAddress 177
If there are no active features on the chassis, the command will return a
message:
racadm feature -s
No features active on the chassis.
After you have run both commands, the FlexAddress feature activation is
verified. For further information on the RACADM commands, see the
feature and featurecard command sections of the Dell Chassis Management
Controller Firmware Version 2.0 Administrator Reference Guide.
Deactivating FlexAddress
The FlexAddress feature can be deactivated and the SD card returned to a
pre-installation state using a RACADM command. There is no deactivation
function within the Web interface. Deactivation will return the SD card to its
original state where it can be installed and activated on a different chassis.
CAUTION: The SD card must be physically installed in the CMC, and the chassis
must be powered-down before executing the deactivation command or there
could be data loss.
If you execute the deactivation command with no card installed, or with a
card from a different chassis installed, the feature will be deactivated and no
change will be made to the card.
Deactivating FlexAddress
Use the following RACADM command to deactivate the FlexAddress feature
and restore the SD card:
racadm feature -d -c flexaddress
The command will return the following status message upon successful
deactivation:
feature FlexAddress is deactivated on the chassis
successfully.
If the chassis is not powered-down prior to execution, the command will fail
with the following error message:
ERROR: Unable to deactivate the feature because the
chassis is powered ON
