Installation Manual

Advanced iDRAC6 Configuration 119
•Use the racresetcfg subcommand to reset the iDRAC6 to original defaults,
and then run the
racadm config -f <filename>.cfg
command. Ensure that the .cfg file includes all required objects, users,
indexes, and other parameters.
CAUTION: Use the racresetcfg subcommand to reset the database and the
iDRAC6 NIC settings to the original default settings and remove all users and user
configurations. While the root user is available, other users’ settings are also reset
to the default settings.
Parsing Rules
• All lines that start with '#' are treated as comments.
A comment line
must start in column one. A '#' character in any other
column is treated as a '#' character.
Some modem parameters may include # characters in its string. An escape
character is not required. You may want to generate a
.cfg from a racadm
getconfig -f <filename>.cfg
command, and then perform a
racadm config -f <filename>.cfg command to a different
iDRAC6, without adding escape characters.
Example :
#
# This is a comment
[cfgUserAdmin]
cfgUserAdminPageModemInitString=<Modem init # not
a comment>
• All group entries must be surrounded by " [" and " ]" characters.
The starting "
[" character denoting a group name must start in column
one. This group name
must be specified before any of the objects in that
group. Objects that do not include an associated group name generate an
error. The configuration data is organized into groups as defined in the
RACADM iDRAC6 and CMC Command Line Reference Guide available
on the Dell Support website at
