Hello Incarna The syntax of the command is: racadm config -g cfgUserAdmin -o cfgUserAdminPassword -i 1 NewPassword The command is likely not working because Ubuntu is not a supported OS. You will probably need to boot to another OS to run the command. Here is a link for OMSA live. It is a CentOS distro with our utilities. [URL] Thanks
Hello all, I'm having a headache with my DRAC4 card on my PE2850 running Ubuntu Server 10.04 LTS. I need to reset the root password on it, and I've been reading everywhere to use the racadm command. Ok, well I installed the Dell OM software, and went into the /opt/dell/srvadmin/bin folder, and I have 3 different racadm commands I could do (I'm assuming for different DRAC versions): idracadm, racadm4, racadm5. When trying to execute the racadm4 and racadm5 commands, it says it doesn't have a DRAC on board or the software is not present. Well, I know for a fact there is one of board, and I JUST installed the software, so that doesn't make sense. When using the idracadm command, I actually get a response, but run into constant errors. Like so: ./idracadm racresetcfgERROR: Unable to perform the requested operation.If the operation attempted was to configure DRAC, possible reason may be that Local Configuration using RACADM is disabled. ./idracadm racresetERROR: A firmware update is currently in progress. Unable to reset the RAC at this time. When trying to disconnect Virtual Media, as someone suggested to me:./idracadm vmdisconnectERROR: Unable to disconnect Virtual Media devices.  Any help is appreciated.
