Modifying The Cmc Ip Address - Dell PowerEdge VRTX User Manual

Any character to the right of the = (for example, a second =, a #, [, ], and so on) is taken as-is. These characters
are valid modem chat script characters.
[cfgLanNetworking] -{group name}
cfgNicIpAddress=143.154.133.121 {object value}
• The .cfg parser ignores an index object entry.
You cannot specify which index is used. If the index already exists, it is either used or the new entry is created in
the first available index for that group.
The racadm getconfig -f <filename>.cfg command places a comment in front of index objects,
allowing you to see the included comments.
NOTE: You may create an indexed group manually using the following command:
racadm config -g <groupname>
<unique anchor name>
• The line for an indexed group cannot be deleted from a .cfg file. If you do delete the line with a text editor,
RACADM stops when it parses the configuration file and alert you of the error.
You must remove an indexed object manually using the following command:
racadm config -g <groupname>
NOTE: A NULL string (identified by two " characters) directs the CMC to delete the index for the specified
group.
To view the contents of an indexed group, run the following command:
racadm getconfig -g <groupname> -i <index 1-16>
• For indexed groups the object anchor must be the first object after the [ ] pair. The following are examples of the
current indexed groups:
[cfgUserAdmin]
cfgUserAdminUserName= <USER_NAME>
• When using remote RACADM to capture the configuration groups into a file, if a key property within a group is
not set, the configuration group is not saved as part of the configuration file. If these configuration groups are
needed to be cloned onto other CMCs, the key property must be set before executing the getconfig -f
command. Alternatively, you can manually enter the missing properties into the configuration file after running
the getconfig -f command. This is true for all the RACADM–indexed groups.
This is the list of the indexed groups that exhibit this behavior and their corresponding key properties:
– cfgUserAdmin — cfgUserAdminUserName
– cfgEmailAlert — cfgEmailAlertAddress
– cfgTraps — cfgTrapsAlertDestIPAddr
– cfgStandardSchema — cfgSSADRoleGroupName
– cfgServerInfo — cfgServerBmcMacAddress

Modifying the CMC IP Address

When you modify the CMC IP address in the configuration file, remove all unnecessary <variable> = <value>
entries. Only the actual variable group's label with [ and ] remains, including the two <variable> = <value>
entries pertaining to the IP address change.
Example:
#
# Object Group "cfgLanNetworking"
#
[cfgLanNetworking]
cfgNicIpAddress=10.35.10.110
cfgNicGateway=10.35.10.1
-o <anchored object> -i <index 1-16>
-o <objectname> -i <index 1-16> ""
