The following table lists the options for the RACADM command:
Table 3. RACADM Command Options
Option Description
-r <racIpAddr>
-r <racIpAddr> : <port number>
Specifies the controllers remote IP address.
Use <port number> if the iDRAC port number is not the default
port (443).
-u <username>
Specifies the user name 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 delete a user account using the iDRAC web
interface and then use RACADM to create a new account
with the same user name, you are not prompted to enter a
password. However, you must manually provide a password for
the account to be able to log into iDRAC using that account.
-p <password>
Specifies the password used to authenticate the command
transaction. If the -p option is used, the -i option is not allowed.
--nocertwarn
Does not display certificate related warning message.
Using autocomplete feature
Use the autocomplete feature in firmware RACADM to:
Display all the available RACADM commands in the alphabetical order by pressing the tab key at the racadm>> prompt.
View the complete list, by entering the starting letter of the command at the racadm>> prompt and press tab key.
NOTE:
Commands that are displayed/suggested by the shell are case insensitive.
If an attribute group does not include any attributes, autocomplete does not display this group at all.
Navigate the cursor within a command, by pressing:
Home key: Directs to the starting of the command
End key: Directs to the end of the command
View the history of the commands that were run in the current session by pressing up and down arrow key.
If an attribute value starts with double quotes but does not end with them, the value is still considered and the command
runs successfully.
Exit the Autocomplete mode, by entering Quit or Exit
