iDRAC config reset/configure

For those of you who have to work remotely with Dell servers that have active iDRAC interfaces that are either not configured or their configuration isn’t documented, I’ve discovered a useful tool that is written for Linux but works on ESXI as well:

ipmitool – sha1sum 3244c3cee98ef3168193d1a26dca7dfcc732e459

ipmitool-1.8.15-1.vib – sha1sum 3cecaeec586fe06b5ace383a6acf4703fb143a08

With ssh enabled on your ESXI host, you can sftp one of these files to the host and use them to setup iDRAC or reset the admin/root user password.
