iDRAC has from 2 through 16 users available for configuration. The attributes in Template example show an example of user 2, and all users are grouped in a similar manner—Users.3, Users.4, and so on.
When creating a user, you must set the user to Enabled and supply a username and password.
Note: Passwords in SCP templates are always commented out by default and populated with ****** as their value.
{ "Name": "Users.3#UserName", "Value": "guest",
"Set On Import": "True",
"Comment": "Read and Write" },
{ "Name": "Users.3#Password", "Value": "password123", "Set On Import": "True",
"Comment": "Read and Write" },
{ "Name": "Users.3#Enable",
"Value": "Enabled", "Set On Import": "True",
"Comment": "Read and Write" },
Additional settings for the user can be applied using the same template. The preceding example uses a “plaintext” password to configure the user, instead of the password hashes. The password must either be plaintext or hashes but cannot contain both.
Note: Commented attributes are ignored during SCP Import.
