Change IP of iDRAC from linux
Hi, Few of our server's iDRAC IP address were not changed before we moved them to different network. Is it possible to change the iDrac's IP address from within the Linux host ? (ssh connections are present to the hosts). I searched the net and found "dcism" package. But could not find docs on how to use it. Is this the right tool which I can use to change the DRAC's IP from within the same host ? Regards, Prasad

If you install OpenManage onto the host, you can apply an IP address to the iDRAC that way. OpenManage would provide a graphical tool, but if this is a headless install, it would also provide the racadm command set.
racadm setniccfg -s

you can also install just the Linux based remote access tools, the locate the racadm file in the /opt/dell/srvadmin/sbin folder, and run it with the parameters that Dylan provided.
