262 Using the RACADM Command Line Interface
For a complete list of available RACADM CLI commands, see "Using the
RACADM Command Line Interface."
Remote and SSH/Telnet RACADM
Remote RACADM is a client side utility, which can be executed from a
management station through the out of band network interface. A remote
capability option (
-r) is provided that allows you to connect to the managed
system and execute RACADM subcommands from a remote console or
management station. To use the remote capability, you need a valid user name
(
-u option) and password (-p option), and iDRAC6 IP address. SSH/Telnet
RACADM is used to refer to the RACADM command usage from a SSH or
Telnet prompt.
The maximum number of simultaneous remote RACADM sessions is four.
These sessions are independent and in addition to the Telnet and SSH
sessions. iDRAC6 can simultaneously support four SSH sessions and four
Telnet sessions, in addition to the four RACADM sessions.
NOTE: Configure the IP address on your iDRAC6 before using the RACADM remote
capability.
NOTE: If the system from where you are accessing the remote system does not
have an iDRAC6 certificate in its default certificate store, a message is displayed
when you type a RACADM command.
Security Alert: Certificate is invalid - Name on
Certificate is invalid or does not match site name
Continuing execution. Use -S option for racadm to
stop the execution on certificate-related errors.
RACADM continues to execute the command. However, if you use the
–S
option, RACADM stops executing the command and displays the
following message:
Security Alert: Certificate is invalid - Name on
Certificate is invalid or does not match site name
Racadm not continuing execution of the command.
ERROR: Unable to connect to iDRAC6 at specified
IP address
