TLDR: Yes, and it works. Did my last message not go through? I pasted some redacted command output where I had it query one of my personal machines. (And also detailed some weird problems with poudriere, linux, and symlinks, so it was long and I apologize if you missed it). (Also note that any usernames/passwords I pasted in there are the dell default ones just to show the tool’s failure mode). The hardware on the machine where racadm runs is inconsequential — this is a remote control device that speaks network protocols to a foreign idrac, and even on a modern machine running a supported OS, it would speak those same protocols to a USB network port on the same machine, if you were trying to affect the local management board. Just like ipmitool, racadm can (on linux and windows) speak to either your local hardware, or a hardware elsewhere. On BSD, unless you’re talking to it on ue0, it’s only useful in the remote sense. I do cover this in the FAQ I wrote. -Dan
