Re: racadm not working on CentOS 7.2 + idrac8

Thanks!  Installing srvadmin-idracadm7 fixed it.

What's confusing to me is that:
- I have an iDRAC8 and to make it work, I understand now, I need to use
srvadmin-idracadm7 (7 instead of 8). I had assumed idracadm7 was for "old" iDRAC
7.
- I had installed srvadmin-all, and I expected to have everything I needed;
however, it seems no packages actually requires srvadmin-idracadm7:

# rpm -q --requires srvadmin-all | grep idrac
srvadmin-idrac = 8.3.0
# rpm -q --requires srvadmin-idrac | grep idrac
srvadmin-idrac-ivmcli
srvadmin-idrac-vmcli
srvadmin-idracadm
# rpm -q --whatrequires srvadmin-idracadm7
no package requires srvadmin-idracadm7
#

Basically, following all the links/wrappers from racadm onward, it seems in the
end
	/opt/dell/srvadmin/bin/idracadm7
is working for my iDRAC8, while
	/opt/dell/srvadmin/bin/idracadm	
is not.

Thanks
