getconfig Subcommand Description

The getconfig subcommand allows the user to retrieve DRAC 4 configuration parameters on an individual basis, or all the configuration groups may be retrieved and saved into a file.

Input

Table A-6 describes the getconfig subcommand options.

NOTE: The -f option will output the contents of the file to the terminal screen rather than writing to a file since no file system is available. For the serial/telnet console, the <filename> argument must be supplied, but it is ignored.

Table A-6. getconfig Subcommand Options

Option	Description
-f	The -f <filename>, or filename option, causes getconfig to create the file <filename>. It
	then reads all the configuration data from the DRAC 4 and places it into the file
	<filename>. The created file is a format that can be used with the racadm config -f
	<filename> command.
-p	The -p, or password option, causes getconfig to include password information in the file for
	all passwords except for the user passwords (which are stored encrypted and cannot be
	decrypted). A # cfgUserAdmPassword line is displayed as an indication that the password is
	present, but the password text is not displayed.
-g	The -g <groupName>, or group option, can be used to display the configuration for a single
	group. The groupName is the name for the group used in the racadm.cfg files. If the group is
	an indexed group, use the -i option.
-h	The -h, or help option, displays a list of all available configuration groups that you can use.
	This option is useful when you do not remember exact group names.
-i	The -i <index>, or index option, is valid only for indexed groups and can be used to specify a
	unique group. The <index> is a decimal integer from 1 through 16. If -i <index> is not
	specified, a value of 1 is assumed for groups, which are tables that have multiple entries. The
	index is specified by the index value, not a "named" value.
-u	The -u <username>, or user name option, can be used to display the configuration for the
	specified user. The <username> option is the log in user name for the user.
