Description
The LCD panel on the chassis containing
iDRAC6 can be used to view the high-level
status of the servers in the chassis.
During initial configuration of the CMC,
the configuration wizard allows you to enable
DHCP configuration of iDRAC6 networking.
The local RACADM command line interface
runs on the managed server. It is accessed from
either the iKVM or a console redirection
session initiated from iDRAC6 Web interface.
RACADM is installed on the managed server
when you install Dell OpenManage Server
Administrator.
Remote RACADM is a client utility which runs
on a management station. It uses the
out-of-band network interface to run
RACADM commands on the managed server.
The –r option runs the RACADM command
over a network.
RACADM commands provide access to nearly
all iDRAC6 features. You can inspect sensor
data, system event log records, and the current
status and configuration values maintained in
iDRAC6. You can alter iDRAC6 configuration
values, manage local users, enable and disable
features, and perform power functions such as
shutting down or rebooting the managed
server.
iDRAC6 Virtual Media Command Line
Interface (iVM-CLI) provides the managed
server access to media on the management
station. It is useful for developing scripts to
install operating systems on multiple
managed servers.
NOTE:
The iVM–CLI utility is supported only on
IPv4 addresses.
