DELL Command Update deployment with custom .XML file
We're currently deploy the DELL Command Update on all our DELL machines silently. My question is if we configure custom update settings and export it to the .xml file, how do we import that file on all of our DELL machines? Also when we get new DELL computers in, how do we install the DELL Command app with the same .XML file?
This method worked for me:
1- Remote install Command Update
2 - Copy the exported Settings.xml file to the target PC C:\Temp directory
3 - Run remotely this cmd command:
"C:\Program Files\Dell\CommandUpdate\"dcu-cli.exe /configure -importSettings=C:\Temp\Settings.xml
If you need to set BIOS password this is it:
"C:\Program Files\Dell\CommandUpdate\"dcu-cli.exe /configure -biosPassword="Test1234"

To run the CLI: Launch the command prompt as an Administrator, then go to %Program Files (x86)%\Dell\CommandUpdate and run the dcu-cli.exe command in the command prompt.
