To access the Trace Log from the iDRAC6 Web-based interface:

1In the System tree, click Remote Access.

2Click the Diagnostics tab.

3Type the gettracelog command, or the racadm gettracelog command in the Command field.

NOTE: You can use this command from the command line interface also. For more information, see gettracelog in the iDRAC6 Administrator Reference Guide available on the Dell Support website at support.dell.com/manuals.

The Trace Log tracks the following information:

•DHCP — Traces packets sent to and received from a DHCP server.

•IP — Traces IP packets sent and received.

The trace log may also contain iDRAC6 firmware-specific error codes that are related to the internal iDRAC6 firmware, not the managed system’s operating system.

NOTE: The iDRAC6 will not echo an ICMP (ping) with a packet size larger than 1500 bytes.

The racadm racdump command provides a single command to get dump, status, and general iDRAC6 board information.

NOTE: This command is available only on Telnet and SSH interfaces. For more inform, see the racdump command in the iDRAC6 Administrator Reference Guide available on the Dell Support website at support.dell.com/manuals.
