Using the RACADM Command Line Interface 251
racadm testemail -i 2
(-i 2 is for the index entry #2 in the e–mail alert table)
NOTE: Ensure that the SMTP and E-mail Alert settings are configured before
testing the e-mail alert feature. See "Configuring E-Mail Alerts" for more
information.
Testing iDRAC6 SNMP Trap Alert Feature
iDRAC6 SNMP trap alerting feature allows SNMP trap listener
configurations to receive traps for system events that occur on the
managed server.
The following example shows how a user can test the SNMP trap alert feature.
racadm testtrap -i 2
(-i 2 is for the index entry #2 in the e–mail alert table)
NOTE: Before you test iDRAC6 SNMP trap alerting feature, ensure that the SNMP
and trap settings are configured correctly. See the testtrap and testemail
subcommand descriptions to configure these settings. See "Configuring Platform
Event Traps (PET)" for more information.
Configuring iDRAC6 Network Properties
To generate a list of available network properties, enter the following:
racadm getconfig -g cfgLanNetworking
To use DHCP to obtain an IP address, use the following command to write
the object cfgNicUseDhcp and enable this feature:
racadm config -g cfgLanNetworking -o cfgNicUseDHCP 1
The commands provide the same configuration functionality as iDRAC6
Configuration Utility when you are prompted to press <Ctrl><E>. For
more information about configuring network properties with iDRAC6
Configuration Utility, see "iDRAC6 LAN."
The following is an example of how the command may be used to configure
desired LAN network properties.
racadm config -g cfgLanNetworking -o cfgNicEnable 1
racadm config -g cfgLanNetworking -o cfgNicIpAddress
