How to set auto-power for iDrac 9

How to set auto-power for iDrac 9.

Problem:

iDrac 9 default Power Recovery is Last; However, APC UPS may shutdown a server externally, therefore power-up may not occur as expected.

Option 1 Solution:

BIOS (F2) > System Security > AC Power Recovery > On

Option 2 Solution:

ssh root@<IP-of-iDrac>
racadm get BIOS.SysSecurity.AcPwrRcvry
racadm set BIOS.SysSecurity.AcPwrRcvry On

Which will report:

RAC1017: Successfully modified the object value and the change is in 
     pending state.
     To apply modified value, create a configuration job and reboot 
     the system. To create the commit and reboot jobs, use "jobqueue" 
     command. For more information about the "jobqueue" command, see RACADM 
     help.

Therfore, to apply the new setting:

racadm jobqueue create BIOS.Setup.1-1

But it also requires a reboot. (Warning: Choose 2-stage graceshutdown + powerup, because any other seem to hard “reset”. )

racadm serveraction graceshutdown
racadm serveraction powerup

Expect a BIOS update and a reboot (slow).

Afterward, it may be verified via:

racadm get BIOS.SysSecurity.AcPwrRcvry

~ Good Luck! ~
