CAUTION:
are in non-4716 format. Convert the keys into the 4716 format using
keygen -e -f /root/.ssh/id_rsa.pub > std_rsa.pub.
Do not change the permissions of the key file. The above conversion should be
done using default permissions.
NOTE:
iDRAC6 does not support ssh-agent forward of keys.
Logging in Using Public Key Authentication
After the public keys are uploaded, you can log into the iDRAC6 over SSH
without entering a password. You also have the option of sending a single
RACADM command as a command line argument to the SSH application.
The command line options behave similar to remote RACADM since the
session ends after the command is completed.
For example:
Logging in:
ssh username@<domain>
or
ssh username@<IP_address>
where IP_address is the IP address of the iDRAC6.
Sending racadm commands:
ssh username@<domain> racadm getversion
ssh username@<domain> racadm getsel
