Configure Local Users Using RACADMNOTE: You must be logged in as a root user to execute RACADM commands on a remote Linux system.You can configure up to 16 users in the CMC property database. Before you manually enable a CMC user, verify if any current usersexist.If you are configuring a new CMC or if you have used the racadm racresetcfg command, the only current user is root with thepassword calvin. The racresetcfg subcommand resets all configuration parameters to the default values. Any earlier changesare lost.NOTE: Users can be enabled and disabled over time, and disabling a user does not delete the user from the database.To verify if a user exists, open a Telnet/SSH text console to the CMC, log in, and then type the following command once for eachindex of 1–16:racadm getconfig -g cfgUserAdmin -i NOTE: You can also type racadm getconfig -f and view or edit the myfile.cfg file, which includesall the CMC configuration parameters.Several parameters and object IDs are displayed with their current values. Two objects of importance are:# cfgUserAdminIndex=XXcfgUserAdminUserName=If the cfgUserAdminUserName object has no value, that index number, which is indicated by the cfgUserAdminIndex object,is available for use. If a name is displayed after the "=", that index is taken by that user name.When you manually enable or disable a user with the racadm config subcommand, you must specify the index with the -i option.The "#" character in the command objects indicates that it is a read-only object. Also, if you use the racadm config -fracadm.cfg command to specify any number of groups/objects to write, the index cannot be specified. A new user is added tothe first available index. This behavior allows more flexibility in configuring a second CMC with the same settings as the main CMC.Adding CMC User Using RACADMTo add a new user to the CMC configuration:1. Set the user name.2. Set the password.3. Set the user privileges. For information about user privileges, see Types of Users.4. Enable the user.Example:The following example describes how to add a new user named "John" with a "123456" password and login privileges to the CMC.racadm config -g cfgUserAdmin -o cfgUserAdminUserName-i 2johnracadm config -g cfgUserAdmin -o cfgUserAdminPassword-i 2123456racadm config -g cfgUserAdmin -i 2 -ocfgUserAdminPrivilege0x00000001racadm config -g cfgUserAdmin -i 2 -ocfgUserAdminEnable 1NOTE: For a list of valid bit mask values for specific user privileges, see theChassis Management Controller forPowerEdge VRTX RACADM Command Line Reference Guide. The default privilege value is 0, which indicates that theprivileges of a user are not enabled.To verify that the user was successfully added with the correct privileges, run the following command:racadm getconfig –g cfgUserAdmin –i 2116
