Manage Dell DRAC.
New in version 2015.8.2.
salt.modules.dracr.
bare_rac_cmd
(cmd, host=None, admin_username=None, admin_password=None)¶salt.modules.dracr.
change_password
(username, password, uid=None, host=None, admin_username=None, admin_password=None, module=None)¶Change user's password
CLI Example:
salt dell dracr.change_password [USERNAME] [PASSWORD] uid=[OPTIONAL]
host=<remote DRAC> admin_username=<DRAC user>
admin_password=<DRAC PW>
salt dell dracr.change_password diana secret
Note that if only a username is specified then this module will look up details for all 16 possible DRAC users. This is time consuming, but might be necessary if one is not sure which user slot contains the one you want. Many late-model Dell chassis have 'root' as UID 1, so if you can depend on that then setting the password is much quicker. Raises an error if the supplied password is greater than 20 chars.
