Supported RACADM Interfaces
The RACADM command-line utility provides a scriptable interface that allows you to locally or remotely configure your
Remote Access Controller (RAC). 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 support.dell.com.
The RACADM utility supports the following interfaces:
•

Local — Supports executing RACADM commands from the managed server’s operating system. You must install
the OpenManage software on the managed server to run local RACADM commands. Only one instance of Local
RACADM can be executed on a system at a time. If the user tries to open another instance, an error message is
displayed and the second instance of Local RACADM closes immediately. To download the local RACADM tool
from support.dell.com, select Drivers and Downloads, select the server, and then select Systems Management
→ Dell Toolkit .

•

SSH or Telnet — Also known as Firmware RACADM. Firmware RACADM is accessible by logging in to iDRAC7
using SSH or Telnet. You do not have to specify the iDRAC7 IP, user name, or password to run Firmware
RACADM commands. Similar to Local RACADM, after you enter the RACADM prompt, directly run the
commands without the RACADM prefix.

•

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 like a
Local or SSH/Telnet RACADM command except that you must also use the –r –i options or the –r –u –p options.
For more information on these options, see RACADM Subcommand Details. To download the local RACADM tool
from support.dell.com, select Drivers and Downloads, select the server, and then select Systems Management
→ DRAC Tools .

RACADM Syntax Usage
The following section describes the syntax usage for Local, SSH/Telnet, and Remote RACADM.

Local RACADM
racadm getconfig -g  [-o ]
[-i ]
racadm 
Example
racadm getconfig -g idracinfo
racadm getsysinfo

SSH or Telnet RACADM
racadm getconfig -g  [-o ]
[-i ]
racadm 
Example
racadm getconfig -g idracinfo
racadm getsysinfo

34

Remote RACADM
racadm -r  -u  -p  getconfig -g  [-o
] [-i ]
racadm -r  -u  -p  
Example
racadm -r  -u  -p  getconfig -g 
idracinfo
racadm -r  -u  -p  getsysinfo

RACADM Command Options
The following table lists the options for the RACADM command:
Option

Description

-r
-r  : 

Specifies the controller’s remote IP address.
Use: if the iDRAC port number is not the
default port (443)

-u 

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.

-p 

Specifies the password used to authenticate the
command transaction. If the -p option is used, the -i option
is not allowed.

-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 

Specifies the index number for the indexed group, if
applicable.

-g 

Specifies the group name if applicable.

-o 

Specifies the object name if applicable.

The following table provides the supported RACADM interfaces for iDRAC Enterprise and iDRAC Express.

RACADM Subcommand Details

2

This section provides detailed descriptions of the RACADM subcommands including the syntax and valid entries.

Guidelines to Quote Strings Containing Special Characters When
Using RACADM Commands
When using strings that contain special characters, use the following guidelines:
Strings containing the following special characters must be quoted using single quotes or double quotes:
•

$ (dollar sign)

•

" (double quote)

•

' (single quote)

•

` (back quote)

•

\ (backslash)

•

~ (tilde)

•

; (semicolon)

•

| (vertical bar)

•

( (left parentheses)

•

) (right parentheses)

•

& (ampersand)

•

> (greater than)

•

< (less than)

•

# (pound)

•

ASCII code 32 (space)
NOTE: The - (dash) character cannot be the first character of the string, regardless of whether the string is quoted.

There are different escaping rules for single quoting versus double quoting.
For double quoting:
The following characters must be escaped by prepending a backslash:
•

$ (dollar sign)

•

" (double quote)

•

` (back quote)

•

\ (backslash)

For example, use the following for a string that contains the special characters, $, ",',`and \
For single quoting:
•

No character escaping is necessary.

•

A single quote cannot be used even with a backslash escaped.

41

NOTE: An empty string may be specified as either "" (using double quotes) or '' (using single quotes).

-f — The -f  option causes config to read the contents of the file specified by
 and configure iDRAC. The file must contain data in the format specified in the
section Parsing Rules in the iDRAC User’s Guide available at dell.com/support/manuals.
--continue — This option is used with –f option only. If configuration through file fails for a
group, then configuration continues with the next group in the file. If this option is not used,
then configuration stops when it fails for a particular group. After the failed group, the rest
of the groups are not configured.
-p— This option must be used with the -f option. It directs config to delete the password
entries contained in the config file -f  after the configuration is complete.
To apply the password you must remove the preceding Read-Only marker '#' in the config
file before executing the config -f command.
-g— The -g , or group option, must be used with the -o option. The

option specifies the object name that is written with the string .
-i — The -i , or index option, is valid only for indexed groups and can be used to
specify a unique group. The  is a decimal integer from 1 through n, where n can
vary from 1 to maximum number of indexes a particular group supports. If -i  is not
specified, a value of 1 is assumed for groups, which are tables that have multiple entries.
The index is specified by the index value, not a named value.

•

•

-c — The -c, or check option, is used with the config subcommand and allows the user to
parse the .cfg file to locate syntax errors. If errors are found, the line number and a short
description of what is incorrect are displayed. Write permission does not apply to iDRAC.
This option is a check only.
For CMC only:
-m — Module must be one of the following values:
–
–

server-n — where n = 1 to 16

fwupdate
Description

Allows you to update the firmware on the iKVM, active CMC, standby CMC, server
iDRACs, or an IOM infrastructure device. You can:
•
•
•
•
•

56

Check the firmware update process status.
Update iDRAC or CMC firmware from a FTP or a TFTP server by providing an IP
address and optional path.
Update iDRAC or CMC firmware from the local file system using Local and
Remote RACADM.
Rollback to the standby firmware.
This subcommand performs updates to the iDRAC firmware (if CMC firmware
version is 2.0 or later and iDRAC firmware version is 1.4) when the existing
firmware is corrupted. There can only be a single update operation in progress

at any time. In addition, the fwupdate subcommand may only update one or
more devices of a single kind at a time.
To use this subcommand for CMC you must have Chassis Configuration Administrator
privilege and for iDRAC you must have Configure iDRAC permission.
NOTE: Running the fwupdate subcommand to update the firmware on the active
CMC resets itself causing all network connections to be dropped. During update of
all other modules, including the standby CMC, the active CMC continues to run
normally without resetting.
NOTE: The fwupdate subcommand generates an error when used on the extension
slot of a multi-slot server.
Synopsis

For iDRAC:
racadm fwupdate -s
racadm fwupdate -g -u -a 
[-d  [--clearcfg]
racadm -r  -u  -p 
fwupdate -f  
 -d  where path is the location
on the ftp server where firming.d7 is stored.
racadm fwupdate -r
racadm fwupdate -p -u [-d ]
For CMC:
For local RACADM:
racadm fwupdate -g -u -a  -d  [-m ]
racadm fwupdate -f 
  -d  [-m
]
racadm fwupdate -u -m iominf-
racadm fwupdate -s [-m ]
racadm fwupdate -c [-m ]
For Remote RACADM:
racadm fwupdate -p -u -d 
NOTE: iDRAC7 targets are not supported from CMC. Use the CMC GUI to update
iDRAC7 targets from CMC.
When using FTP, if you provide the full path to the image file on the CLI, then the CMC
uses that path to locate that file on the host. If you do not provide a full path, then the
CMC searches the home directory of the specified user for the file if the host system is
running Linux or another variant of UNIX. If the host system is running Windows, then a
default folder, such as C:\ftproot is searched.
NOTE: When attempting to run firmware update task using racadm fwupdate
command, if the firmware image path length is greater than 64 characters. Remote
RACADM client exits with the error message "ERROR: Specified path is too long".

57

Input

•

•

-u — For iDRAC: The update option performs a checksum of the firmware
update file and starts the actual update process. This option may be used along
with the -g or -p options. At the end of the update, iDRAC performs a soft reset.
For CMC: Performs the firmware update operation.
-s— For iDRAC: The status option returns the current status of where you are
in the update process. This option is always used by itself. Lists active SD card
features and SD card status.
For CMC: Displays the current status of the firmware update.
NOTE: Use -m to display the status of the module update. Omit -m to display the
status of the active CMC update.
NOTE: The value all can only be used to obtain the status of all targets to be
updated.

•

•

•

•

-g — For iDRAC:The get option instructs the firmware to get the firmware
update file from the TFTP server. You must also specify the -a, -u, and -d
options. In the absence of the -a option, the defaults are read from properties
contained in the group cfgRemoteHosts, using properties
cfgRhostsFwUpdateIpAddr and cfgRhostsFwUpdatePath.
For CMC: Downloads the firmware update using the TFTP server.
-a — The IP Address option specifies the TFTP server IP address, used with -g
option.
For CMC: Specifies the TFTP server IP address or FQDN used for the firmware
image (used with -g).
-d — For iDRAC: The -d, or directory, option specifies the directory on the TFTP
server or on iDRAC’s host server where the firmware update file resides.
For CMC: Specifies the source path where the firmware image resides.
Default: Designated TFTP default directory on that host for the file if -g option is
absent. If -g is used, it defaults to a directory configured on the TFTP server.
-p — For iDRAC: The -p, or put, option is used to update the firmware file from
the managed system to iDRAC. The-u option must be used with the -p option.
NOTE: This option is not applicable for CMC. The -p option is supported on local
and remote RACADM and is not supported with the serial/Telnet/ssh console and
on Linux operating systems.

•
•
•

•

58

-r — The rollback option is used to rollback to the standby firmware.
This option is not applicable for CMC.
-c — Cancels the current firmware update of a module.
This option is applicable only for CMC.
-m —
Specifies the module or device to be updated.  is one of the following
values:
— cmc-active (default)
— cmc-standby
— kvm
— server-nx where n=1-8 ; x = a,b,c,d
— server-generation where generation = iDRAC or iDRAC6 only.
— iominf-n where n = 1–6
--clearcfg (Optional) — After the firmware update, this option removes the
previous iDRAC configuration.

NOTE: iDRAC7 targets are not supported from CMC. Use the CMC GUI to update
iDRAC7 targets from CMC.
CMC version 3.00 accepts IPv4, IPv6, or fully qualified domain names (FQDN) for both
FTP and TFTP servers.
NOTE: You can specify the cmc-active and cmc-standby modules at the same time
along with one or more server-n modules. This enables the devices to be updated
together. This option is applicable only for CMC.
When you use the server-generation option, the CMC updates all iDRACs of that
particular generation that can be updated.
NOTE: Verify that the update applied to servers for a particular generation has
been validated for all impacted server models.

racresetcfg
Description

Deletes your current iDRAC or CMC configuration and resets iDRAC or CMC to the factory
default settings. After reset, the default name and password is root and calvin,
respectively, and the IP address is 192.168.0.120. Only for iDRAC Enterprise on Blade
servers, it is IP address plus the number of the slot the server inhabits in the chassis. If
you issue racresetcfg from a network client (for example, a supported Web browser,
Telnet/ssh, or remote RACADM), you must use the default IP address. The racresetcfg
subcommand does not reset the cfgDNSRacName object.
To use this subcommand, you must have Configure iDRAC privilege for iDRAC and Chassis
Administrator privilege for CMC.
NOTE: Certain firmware processes need to be stopped and restarted to complete the
reset to defaults. iDRAC or CMC becomes unresponsive for about 30 seconds while
this operation completes
For CMC only:
NOTE: There is a 100% fan request when the command is issued against the servers.
