138 Using the serial and racadm Commandsw w w . d e l l . c o m | s u p p o r t . d e l l . c o m Before Adding a DRAC 4 UserThe DRAC 4 allows up to 16 users to be configured into the DRAC 4 property database. Beforemanually adding the DRAC 4 user, you need to know which, if any, users exist. If the DRAC 4 isnew, or the racadm racresetcfg command has been run, then the only user is root with thepassword calvin. The racresetcfg subcommand resets the DRAC 4 back to theoriginal defaults.NOTICE: Use caution when using this command because all configuration parameters are reset to theoriginal defaults; any previous changes are lost.NOTE: Users can be added and deleted over time, so it is possible that users on the DRAC 4 do not havethe same index number as the same user on a different DRAC 4.To find out if a user exists, you can type the following command at the command prompt:racadm getconfig -u <username>or you can type the following command once for each index of 1–16:racadm getconfig -g cfgUserAdmin -i <index>NOTE: An alternate method to obtain this information is to type racadm getconfig -f, then view or edit the myfile.cfg file, which includes all DRAC 4 configurationparameters.Several parameters and object IDs are displayed along with their current values. The two objectsof interest are:# cfgUserAdminIndex=XXcfgUserAdminUserName=If the cfgUserAdminUserName object has no value, that index number, which is indicated bythe cfgUserAdminIndex object, is available for use. If a name appears after the "=," that index istaken by that user name.NOTE: When you manually add or remove a user with the racadm config subcommand, you must specifythe index with the -i option. Observe that the cfgUserAdminIndex object displayed in the previousexample contains a '#' character. Also, if you use the racadm config -f racadm.cfg command to specifyany number of groups/objects to write, the index cannot be specified. A new user is added to the firstavailable index. This behavior allows more flexibility in configuring multiple DRAC 4s with the same settings.Adding a DRAC 4 User Without Alert CapabilitiesTo add a simple user without any alert information, first locate an available user index byperforming the steps in "Before Adding a DRAC 4 User." Next, type the following two commandlines with the new user name and password:racadm config -g cfgUserAdmin -o cfgUserAdminUserName -i <index><username>racadm config -g cfgUserAdmin -o cfgUserAdminPassword -i <index><password>
