Multiple DRAC Password Changes

Systems Management - Wiki

These scripts will allow you to change multiple Dell Remote Access Controller (DRAC) passwords at one time.

Download the scripts from the Dell TechCenter Media Gallery

  1. config_drac.sh – This script configures the username, password, active directory, and all components of the DRAC.
  2. ipaddr.txt – This text file contains a list of IP addresses that need to be configured.
  3. drac.cfg – This file contains the configurations needed to be set/unset on the DRAC.


To use the script, do the following.

  1. Copy these files into one directory (for example, /home/scripts).
  2. Make the necessary changes in the drac.cfg file. These include the configuration that needs to be automated.
  3. Add all the IP addresses of the DRACs that need to be configured by using the drac.cfg file in the ipaddr.txt file.
  4. Run the script config_drac.sh.This script uses the information from the previously mentioned files and attempts to configure the DRAC.
  5. All the logs are stored in the config.log file under the same folder as these files.

Sample files for both drac.cfg and ipaddr.txt include descriptions for easy usage.
