racadm get idrac.telemetry
racadm set idrac.telemetry.<attribute> <value>
e.g.
racadm set idrac.telemetry.enabletelemetry Enabled
Per report:
racadm get idrac.telemetry<report>.1
racadm set idrac.telemetry<report>.1.<attribute> <value>
e.g.
racadm set idrac.telemetrypowermetrics.1.enabletelemetry Enabled
racadm set idrac.telemetrypowermetrics.1.reportinterval 300
