The following table lists the options for the RACADM command.
Table 1. Racadm command options
Option Description
-r<racIpAddr>
-r racIpAddr : <port number>
Specifies the remote IP address of the controller.
Use:<port number> if the iDRAC port number is not the default
port (443).
-u <usrName> Specifies the username that is used to authenticate the command
transaction. If the -u option is used, the -p option must be used,
and the -i option (interactive) is not allowed.
NOTE: If you are using CIFS that is registered with a
domain, and are accessing the CIFS using the IP with
the CIFS local user credentials, it is mandatory to enter
the hostname or host IP with the -u option. The format
is - <hostname/username> or <host IP/username>
-p <password> Specifies the password that is used to authenticate the command
transaction. If the -p option is used, the -i option is not allowed.
NOTE: CMC does not support extended ASCII
characters, such as ß, å, é, ü, or other characters used
primarily in non-English languages. Setting values with
these characters causes unpredictable behavior.
-S Specifies that RACADM should check for invalid certificate errors.
RACADM stops the execution of the command with an error
message if it detects an invalid certificate.
-I <indexnumber> Specifies the index number for the indexed group, if applicable.
-g <groupname> Specifies the group name, if applicable.
-o objectname Specifies the object name, if applicable.
