reset drac passwords/settings

• Get a copy of the drac-stuff directory in root's homedir on grieg, rautavaara etc. It contains racadm, racsvc with needed dependencies.

• Communications with the drac from the host goes over a serial device, which you need to serialsetup first: To do that run

        sh -x drac-stuff/etc/init.d/racsvc start

it will fail in a few places but it will figure out which ttySXX it is, and it will do a sersetup on it.

• Start ravscv using

        LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/root/drac-stuff/usr/lib" drac-stuff/usr/sbin/racsvc  -d /dev/ttyS2

or whatever ttyS it is in this case. It will need ia32-libs if you are on amd64. ("File not found" tells you that.)

• get the current config:

        # LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/root/drac-stuff/usr/lib" /root/drac-stuff/usr/sbin/racadm getconfig -p -f drac-config

• reset all config:

        # LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/root/drac-stuff/usr/lib" /root/drac-stuff/usr/sbin/racadm racresetcfg

• enable dhcp:

        # LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/root/drac-stuff/usr/lib" /root/drac-stuff/usr/sbin/racadm setniccfg -d

• or set static addresses:

        # LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/root/drac-stuff/usr/lib" /root/drac-stuff/usr/sbin/racadm setniccfg -s 192.0.2.011 255.255.255.0 192.0.2..1

• set a root password (root is user #1 by default):

        # typeset HISTCONTROL=ignoreboth
        #       LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/root/drac-stuff/usr/lib" /root/drac-stuff/usr/sbin/racadm config -g cfgUserAdmin -o cfgUserAdminPassword -i 1 "swordfish"

• inspect the new config:

        # LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/root/drac-stuff/usr/lib" /root/drac-stuff/usr/sbin/racadm getconfig -p -f drac-config-after

• reboot the drac:

        # LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/root/drac-stuff/usr/lib" /root/drac-stuff/usr/sbin/racadm racreset
