Configuring PEF Using the RACADM CLI

1Enable PEF.

Open a command prompt, type the following command, and press <Enter>:

racadm config -g cfgIpmiPef -o cfgIpmiPefEnable -i 1 1

where 1 and 1 are the PEF index and the enable/disable selection, respectively.

The PEF index can be a value from 1 through 22. The enable/disable selection can be set to 1 (Enabled) or 0 (Disabled).

For example, to enable PEF with index 5, type the following command:

racadm config -g cfgIpmiPef -o cfgIpmiPefEnable -i 5 1

2Configure your PEF actions.

At the command prompt, type the following command and press <Enter>:

racadm config -g cfgIpmiPef -o cfgIpmiPefAction -i 1 <action>

where the <action> values bits are as follows:

•0 = No alert action

•1 = power off server

•2 = reboot server

•3 = power cycle server

For example, to enable PEF to reboot the server, type the following command:

racadm config -g cfgIpmiPef -o cfgIpmiPefAction -i 1 2

where 1 is the PEF index and 2 is the PEF action to reboot.
