I manage a variety of Dell servers running FreeBSD, only 610 and 1950s work with racadm but everything that can be done with racadm can also be done with ipmitool. I just use ipmitool to get around instead of their proprietary racadm stuff. What functionality do you need from racadm and maybe I can give you an ipmitool equivalent?
