Dell 2 Disabling CMC User, Enabling CMC User With Permissions

NOTE: For a list of valid bit mask values for specific user privileges, see the Chassis Management
Controller for PowerEdge VRTX RACADM Command Line Reference Guide. The default privilege
value is 0, which indicates that the privileges of a user are not enabled.
racadm config -g cfgUserAdmin -o cfgUserAdminUserName
-i 2
john
racadm config -g cfgUserAdmin -o cfgUserAdminPassword
-i 2
123456
racadm config -g cfgUserAdmin -i 2 -o
cfgUserAdminPrivilege
0x00000001
racadm config -g cfgUserAdmin -i 2 -o
cfgUserAdminEnable 1
To verify that the user was successfully added with the correct privileges, run the following command:
racadm getconfig –g cfgUserAdmin –i 2
For more information about the RACADM commands, see the Chassis Management Controller for
PowerEdge VRTX RACADM Command Line Reference Guide available at dell.com/support/manuals.
Disabling CMC User
When using RACADM, users must be disabled manually on an individual-basis. Users cannot be deleted
using a configuration file.
To delete a CMC user, the command syntax is:
racadm config -g cfgUserAdmin -o cfgUserAdminUserName
-i <index>""
racadm config -g cfgUserAdmin -i 2 -o
cfgUserAdminPrivilege 0x0
A null string of double quotation marks ("") instructs CMC to remove the user configuration at the
specified index, and then reset the user configuration to the factory default values.
Enabling CMC User With Permissions
To enable a user with specific administrative permissions (role-based authority):
1. Locate an available user index using the command syntax:
racadm getconfig -g cfgUserAdmin -i <index>
2. Type the following commands with the new user name and password.
racadm config -g cfgUserAdmin -o
cfgUserAdminPrivilege -i <index> <user privilege bitmask value>
NOTE: For a list of valid bit mask values for specific user privileges, see the Chassis
Management Controller for PowerEdge VRTX RACADM Command Line Reference Guide
available at dell.com/support/manuals. The default privilege value is 0, which indicates the user
does not has any privileges enabled.
