--asset |
None |
Reports the customer-programmable
asset tag number for a system. This option displays the asset tag
for a system. For Blade systems, the SYSCFG utility
reports the asset tag for both the server module and the asset tag
for its chassis. For more information on delimiters, see Command
Line Option Delimiters . Example: A:>syscfg --asset asset=ASSET |
--biosver* |
None |
Reports the BIOS version for a system.
If used with the -s option, the environment variable
is set to the BIOS version. Example: A:>syscfg --biosver biosver=A08 |
--chassvctag* |
None |
Reports the chassis service tag
on blade systems. Example: A:>syscfg --chassvctag chassvctag=SVCTAG1 |
--cpucount* |
None |
Reports the number of processors
found on the system. Example 1: A:>syscfg --cpucount cpucount=1 Example 2: A:>syscfg --cpucount cpucount=2 |
--cpuspeed* |
None |
Reports the speed of all processors
in a system. Example: A:>syscfg --cpuspeed cpuspeed=1000MHz |
--envfile |
<filename> |
Reads the environment variable file
(included in DTK as sys.ini ) and sets
environment variables to names in the file, based on the system's
information. Primarily, this command performs a PCI scan and matches
the vendor/device numbers of the devices to those specified in the
environment variable file. For more information, see the Environment
Variable File. Example: A:>syscfg --envfile sys.ini DELLNIC1=INTEL PRO100
DELLNIC2=INTEL PRO100
DVIDEO1=RAGEXL
DIDE1=PEQUR/ROSS IDE
DSCSI1=AIC-7899 |
--mem* |
None |
Reports the amount of system memory
physically installed in the system, not the amount of memory available
to an operating system. If used with the -s option,
the environment variable is set to the amount of system memory. The
last two characters of the memory value indicate the order of magnitude
used (KB or MB). Example: A:>syscfg --mem mem=256MB |
-n |
<filename> |
Specifies an input file to use
for resolving PCI vendor and device numbers to strings. The file must
be present (with read rights) and contain a properly formatted list.
For more information, see PCI Reporting . This option must be used with the pci option. Example: A:>syscfg -n pci.txt --pci PCI Bus: 2, Device: 4, Function: 0
Vendor: 8086 - Intel Corp.
Device: 1229 - 82557/8/9 [Ethernet Pro 100]
Sub Vendor:8086 - Intel Corp.
Sub Device:1017 - EtherExpress PRO/100+ Dual Port Server Adapter
Slot: 01
Class: 02 - Network
SubClass: 00 - Ethernet |
--ovrwrt* |
None |
When used with the outfile option, this option specifies that the output file should be overwritten
if it exists. NOTE: This option is applicable only on PowerEdge systems prior to 12G. Example: A:>syscfg -outfile=out.ini --ovrwrt |
--pci* |
None |
Performs a scan of all PCI buses
and displays the results. The utility uses an open source pci.ids file for vendor/device name resolution. The utility
looks for a file called pci.ids in the current working
directory. If the file is not found in the current working directory,
the directory containing the SYSCFG executable is searched. If the
-n option is used to specify a filename, this filename
is used for resolution. If a specific filename is not given and the pci.ids file cannot be found, Unknown is printed for all
vendor and device codes. For more information,
see PCI Reporting. Example 1 (the pci.ids filename is specified in the command line instance ): A:>syscfg -n pci.ids --pci PCI Bus: 0, Device: 0, Function: 0

Example 2 (the pci.ids file is located in the same directory as the utility so that names
resolve): A:>syscfg --pci PCI Bus: 0, Device: 0, Function: 0

-s |
<string> |
Sets an environment variable to
the value of a function command option. The string argument must be
alphanumeric without any spaces or symbols. The variable name must
be in upper case. This option must be used with at least one function
command. Example: A:>syscfg -s ENVNAME --svctag ENVNAME=SERVICE |
--slot* |
None |
Reports the slot on a Blade system.
If it is not a Blade system, the slot is reported as 0. If used with
the -s option, the environment variable is set to
the slot. Example 1 (Blade systems) : A:>syscfg --slot slot=1 Example 2 (Rack and Tower systems) : A:>syscfg --slot slot=0 NOTE: This option
is valid only on PowerEdge blade systems. |
--svctag* |
None |
Reports the service tag for a
system. If used with the -s option, the environment
variable is set to the BIOS version. Example: A:>syscfg --svctag svctag=113CD1S |
--sysasset* |
None |
Reports the system asset tag on
Blade systems. Example: A:>syscfg --sysasset sysasset=ASSET01 |
--sysid* |
None |
Reports the unique system id bytes
for a server. Servers contain a unique ID value based on their model.
The ID value is reported as a hexadecimal value with a leading 0x,
lowercase hexadecimal letters, and zero-padded to 2 bytes. If used
with the -s general option, the environment variable
is set to the system ID. Example: A:>syscfg --sysid sysid=0x00df |
--sysname* |
None |
Reports the system identification
string for a server, which is the string displayed under the Dell
logo during POST. If used with the -s option, the
environment variable is set to the system name. Example: A:>syscfg --sysname sysname=PowerEdge 1550/1000 |
--syssvctag* |
None |
Reports the system service tag
on a Blade system. Example: A:>syscfg --syssvctag syssvctag=BLADE01 |
--uuid* |
None |
Reports the Unique User Identifier
(UUID) for a system. The UUID is a unique system identifier used in
PXE requests. Example: A:>syscfg --uuid uuid=44454C4C-5300-104C-8044- B1C04F423131 |
