Table 8-6. Using the serial and racadm Commands: Frequently Asked Questions
Question Answer
After performing a DRAC 4 reset (using the racadm
racreset command), I issue a command and the
following message is displayed: racadm <command
name> Transport: ERROR: (RC=-1). What does
this message mean?
You must wait until the DRAC 4 completes the
reset before issuing another command.
When I use the racadm commands and
subcommands, I get errors that I don’t understand.
You may encounter one or more of the following
errors when using the racadm commands and
subcommands:
Local error messages — Occur when problems
occur with syntax, typographical errors, incorrect
names, and so on.
Example:
racadm <
subcmd
>: ERROR:
<
message
>
Transport error messages — Occur when the
racadm CLI communication paths to the DRAC 4
are not accessible. Transport error messages occur
if Server Administrator is not running when the
command is executed.
If you are using the racadm CLI remotely,
transport error messages may indicate network
communication problems or that the management
station is unable to communicate with the
DRAC 4.
Example:
racadm <
subcmd
> : Transport :
ERROR : <
message
>
DRAC 4 firmware errors — Occur when a fault
exists in the DRAC 4 firmware operation.
Example:
racadm <
subcmd
> : Firmware :
ERROR : <
message
