iDRAC configuration import/export

 

Information

 

Summary:

Information about doing import/export of iDRAC configuration.

Environment:

Product: Flowmon OS

Version: Any

Platform: Any

Question/Problem Description:

Is it possible to import/export iDRAC configuration when migrating to a new HW appliance?

Steps to Reproduce:  
Error Message:  
Defect Number:  
Enhancement Number:  
Cause:  
Resolution:

It is possible to import/export a configuration XML file from/to iDRAC. Since iDRAC 9 it is possible to do it in iDRAC UI, for iDRAC 7/8 it has to be done via CLI with the "racadm" tool.

It is recommended to do the backup from an external appliance where the "racadm" tool can be installed.

The "racadm" tool is also available in Flowmon OS. It can be run as:

sudo /opt/dell/srvadmin/sbin/racadm help
