Steps using CLI

Advance preparation:

  • Install the DRAC Tool if racadm is not installed.
  • Run the command to check the iDRAC version:
    racadm -r "iDRAC IP address" -u "iDRAC user ID" -p "iDRAC password" getversion
    Command example: racadm -r 192.16.1.120 -u root -p calvin getversion
    

Steps to export
Run the command to export the XML file.

racadm -r "iDRAC IP address" -u "iDRAC user ID" -p "iDRAC password" get -t xml -f "File path/filename of export destination" 
Command example: racadm -r 192.168.0.120 -u root -p calvin get -t xml -f C:\iDRAC_config.xml

NOTE: Filename/file path is an example. Specify any export destination/filename.

 

Only if the iDRAC version that is confirmed in the Advance preparation step is 1.x, the XML file does not include the alert information.
For this reason, run the command to export the alert information (ini file).

racadm -r "iDRAC IP address" -u "iDRAC user ID" -p "iDRAC password" get -t ini -f "file path/file name"
Command example: racadm -r 192.168.0.120 -u root -p calvin get -t ini -f C:\iDRAC_config.ini

 

Steps to import
Follow the steps below to import the exported information.

  1. Only for iDRAC version 1.x, run the command to import the alert information (ini file).

    racadm -r "iDRAC IP address" -u "iDRAC user ID" -p "iDRAC password" set -t ini -f "file path/filename of file to be imported"
    Command example: racadm -r 192.168.0.120 -u root -p calvin set -t ini -f C:\iDRAC_config.ini
    
  2. Run the command to import the XML file (system configuration).

    racadm -r "iDRAC IP address" -u "iDRAC user ID" -p "iDRAC password" set -t xml -f "file path/filaname of the file to be imported"
    Command example: racadm -r 192.168.0.120 -u root -p calvin set -t xml -f C:\iDRAC_config.xml
    

     

    NOTE: When importing after replacement of iDRAC, enter the default password as the iDRAC password.

     

  3. Wait for the system to restart.
    Restart the system manually if it is not automatically restarted.

 

Since the password of each user for iDRAC is not restored, change the password of each user.
Also, since not all the passwords are restored, restore such as proxy and VNC Server if necessary.
