Supported RACADM Interfaces
The RACADM command-line utility provides a scriptable interface that allows you to remotely congure your Chassis Management
Controller (CMC). The utility runs on the management station and the managed system. It is available on the Dell OpenManage Systems
Management and Documentation DVD or at dell.com/support.
The RACADM utility supports the following interfaces:
SSH or Telnet — Also referred as Firmware RACADM, is accessible by logging in to CMC using SSH or telnet. You do not have to
specify the CMC IP, user name or password to run Firmware RACADM commands.
Remote — Supports executing RACADM commands from a remote management station such as a laptop or desktop. You must install
the DRAC Tools utility from the OpenManage software on the remote computer to run Remote RACADM commands. To execute
Remote RACADM commands, you must formulate the command such as an SSH/Telnet RACADM command except that you must
also use the –r –i options or the –r –u –p options. For more information about these options, see the "RACADM Subcommand Details."
RACADM Syntax Usage
The following section describes the syntax usage for SSH/Telnet and Remote RACADM.
SSH or Telnet RACADM
racadm getconfig -g <groupname> [-o <objectname>][-i <indexnumber>]
