Configure the IDRAC settings without having to restart the server

We have a dell r610. I put an IP address in its idrac last night and ping it, then powered by the server. Today, I can't ping the IP address of the idrac. Put aside from getting to the site, restart the machine and go into the settings of idrac way, is there a way you can access these settings and make changes while the server is in place?

Hello Roger

Yes, as long as you have a way to access the system. If you have the operating system remotely, you can install OpenManage Server Administrator. OMSA has an iDRAC section where you can change the IP address of the iDRAC.

OMSA installation also installs the RACADM tools, so you will be able to execute RACADM commands as well. You can use the RACADM commands to perform all the tasks that you can do so via the GUI, some which are not available in the GUI.

When you get OMSA is installed, you can check the status of the components of the system. If you see any problems then I would suggest that your first troubleshooting step be restart iDRAC. You can restart the iDRAC independent of the system, there will be no interruption of service to the server when you restart the iDRAC. The command RACADM to restart the iDRAC is:

racadm racreset

The command RACADM to iDRAC default configuration is:

racadm racresetcfg

Thank you

  • How can I close all the tabs at once without having to restart Firefox

    At a time, how can another closing a tab I close all my tabs without having to restart Firefox

    On a Mac, you can close the window and open a new window to achieve this. Which does not close the Firefox application. You can also a right tab and choose "Close other tabs" from the context menu.

    Set browser.tabs.closeWindowWithLastTab pref false on the topic: page config to prevent closing the last tab to close the browser and display a close button if only one tab is open.

    To open the topic: config page, type Subject: config in the address bar (address) and press the 'Enter' key, as you type the url of a Web site to open a Web site.

    If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access this page.

  • Change the command line parameters without having to restart LabVIEW

    Is it possible to change the command line parameters passed to a VI WITHOUT having to restart LabVIEW?  Maybe I'm used to how it works just about any other development environment, but to have to do is quite frustrating.

    ronbrown,

    Unfortunately, you'll have to close LabVIEW to pass parameters in a VI of the command prompt. You can build your VI in an executable file, and then pass parameters from the command prompt.  Because the program is its own executable file, it is not dependent on wheter LabVIEW is open.

    I've just set up my first hypervisor, and naturally it became painfully obvious how much I have to learn.

    At the start of new computer, you can load Firefox OK. After closing repeatedly, the icon on the desktop won't open Firefox... or go to programs and click on Firefox. The only way you can get it working again is to restart the computer, but then you only bring up Firefox several times again without haviing to restart. I even tried to restore the computer to earlier dates without result. If I use Internet Explorer to open Firefox the same thing happens.

  • How to force refresh user OAM changes without having to restart the server?

    Hi people,

    I have an OAM authorization rule based on the ldap user attribute (it is url for ldap query under 'Allow access', rule, that is ldap: / /... with a Cache update is enabled) with the hardcoded value, so that only users with these attributes can access protected resources. My problem is that if I add/remove the attribute via the User Manager console, it does not take effect until I have actually restart the access server. I can, however, locking/unlocking the account of the user through Manager users with immediate effect.

    Any help is appreciated.
    Thank you, novel

    Hi Roman,

    There is no problem to run OAM identity and access servers on the same machine, with some ports you choose. I suspect that the problem is that AccessGate the identity of the server is (incorrectly) set up to talk to port 6021 - If Yes, this will be reflected in the identity\AccessServerSDK\oblix\lib\ObAccessClient.xml file and can be corrected by running the configureAccessGate command. There are additional steps to get the automatic hunting at work (in addition to the definition of the parameter doAcessServerFlush) - did you follow the documentation for these?

    After you change the configuration file. I started the Esxi server. But when booting, it shows lmdriver failed to load. When I tried to configure the Exsi network, the back always prompt to reset the default settings of the network. Then I searched the internet, I found this machine NIC not to support Esxi. Is there a way to configure the Microsoft loop back adopter or any virtual adopter for esxi? So that I can install several esxi server on a single machine on vmware workstation and can be communicate with each other.

    With VMware Workstation 7 you should not need to manually configure the .vmx file. Create a new custom virtual machine and select ESX as the guest operating system. This will configure the virtual material suitable as an E1000 network adapter...

  • Can configure the server from the host with IP address

    Hello

    I want to configure a guest computer with 2 network cards, one for LAN private and one for the external LAN.

    Right now, the problem is that I don't have that 1 useable public IP I can use on the external network address.

    Which means that it's either I configure the public ip address on the NIC host or on the comment card.

    May I just know set network bridge on the guest computer and configure the external static public IP, and then click map NETWORK address of the host machine, I set up the ip address. Will this work?

    Please notify.

    If you mean that by disabling TCP/IP on the host, the guest computer can access external WiFi?

    Yes, if you use a Windows host, just uncheck the TCP/IP on the bridged card.

    Or use NAT, then both machines can connect to the internet with a single IP.
