This is how to setup iDRAC's racadm tool on Proxmox 7/8. And iDRAC Service Module (iSM).
curl -fsSL https://linux.dell.com/repo/pgp_pubkeys/0x1285491434D8786F.asc | \
gpg --dearmor -o /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/dell-apt-key.gpg
Create a file at /etc/apt/sources.list.d/linux.dell.com.sources.list
and put the following contents:
deb [signed-by=/etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/dell-apt-key.gpg] http://linux.dell.com/repo/community/openmanage/11000/jammy jammy main
# For Proxmox 7
#deb [signed-by=/etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/dell-apt-key.gpg] http://linux.dell.com/repo/community/openmanage/10300/focal focal main
# If you want iDRAC Service Module(iSM)
deb [signed-by=/etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/dell-apt-key.gpg] http://linux.dell.com/repo/community/openmanage/iSM/5100/bullseye bullseye main
The 10300
(v10.3.0.0) part is the OMSA version found on the matrix available on DELL's page
if you use the jammy release on Debian 11 it will throw uses unknown compression for member 'control.tar.zst', giving up
at install time. This is explained on stackoverflow
apt install srvadmin-idracadm8 dcism
racadm
racadmin getsysinfo
with dcism
you need a reboot !
I added back deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian bullseye main
to the /etc/apt/sources.list file and ran: apt install libssl1.1
. Because the binary /opt/dell/srvadmin/isM/bin/Invoke-iSMPKIHelper needs it (ldd /opt/dell/srvadmin/iSM/bin/Invoke-iSMPKIHelper
).
And after added a file /etc/apt/preferences.d/bullseye with the contents:
Package: *
Pin: release n=bullseye
Pin-Priority: -1
