Attaching or Detaching Partitions Using RACADM
To attach or detach partitions:
1. Open a telnet, SSH, or Serial console to the system and log in.
2. Use any one of the following:
– Using
config
command:
* To attach a partition:
racadm config –g cfgvflashpartition –i 1 –o
cfgvflashPartitionAttachState 1
* To detach a partition:
racadm config –g cfgvflashpartition –i 1 –o
cfgvflashPartitionAttachState 0
– Using
set
command:
* To attach a partition:
racadm set iDRAC.vflashpartition.<index>.AttachState 1
* To detach a partition:
racadm set iDRAC.vflashpartition.<index>.AttachState 0
Operating System Behavior for Attached Partitions
For Windows and Linux operating systems:
• The operating system controls and assigns the drive letters to the attached partitions.
• Read-only partitions are read-only drives in the operating system.
• The operating system must support the file system of an attached partition. Else, you cannot read or modify the
contents of the partition from the operating system. For example, in a Windows environment the operating system
cannot read the partition type EXT2 which is native to Linux. Also, in a Linux environment the operating system
cannot read the partition type NTFS which is native to Windows.
• The vFlash partition label is different from the volume name of the file system on the emulated USB device. You can
change the volume name of the emulated USB device from the operating system. However, it does not change the
partition label name stored in iDRAC7.
Deleting Existing Partitions
Before deleting existing partition(s), make sure that:
• The vFlash functionality is enabled.
