–c allows modifying the public key comment and is optional.

The <passphrase> is optional. After the command completes, use the public file to pass to the RACADM for uploading the file.

RACADM Syntax Notes for CMC

When using the racadm sshpkauth command, ensure the following:

•

For the –i option, the parameter must be svcacct. All other parameters for -i fail in CMC. The svcacct is a special account

for public key authentication over SSH in CMC.

•

To log in to the CMC, the user must be service. Users of the other categories do have access to the public keys entered using

the sshpkauth command.

Viewing Public Keys

To view the public keys that you have added to the CMC, type:

racadm sshpkauth –i svcacct –k all –v

To view one key at a time, replace all with a number from 1 – 6. For example, to view key 2, type:

racadm sshpkauth –i svcacct –k 2 –v

Adding Public Keys

To add a public key to the CMC using the file upload -f option, at the commond line interface console, enter:

racadm sshpkauth –i svcacct –k 1 –p 0xfff –f <public key file>

NOTE: You can use only the file upload option with remote RACADM. For more information, see

Controller for PowerEdge VRTX RACADM Command Line Reference Guide .

To add a public key using the text upload option, enter:

racadm sshpkauth –i svcacct –k 1 –p 0xfff –t "<public key text>"

Deleting Public Keys

To delete a public key, run the following command:

racadm sshpkauth –i svcacct –k 1 –d

To delete all public keys, run the following command:

racadm sshpkauth –i svcacct –k all –d
