1 Introduction Dell Client Configuration Toolkit (CCTK) is a packaged software offering that provides configuration capability to Dell business client platforms such as OptiPlex, Latitude, and Precision. This product consists of a command line utility to configure various BIOS features. You can use CCTK on Microsoft Windows Pre-installation Environment (Windows PE), Microsoft Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7 operating systems, and Red Hat Enterprise Linux environments.
Introduction
Command Line Interface 2 This chapter documents a general overview of the Dell Command Line Interface (CLI) utility. It explains how to run the commands and the syntax details of the command line options used to configure BIOS settings for the client systems.
Using Bootable Image To run CCTK commands: 1 Burn a CD with the CCTK ISO image. For more information, see Dell Client Configuration Toolkit Quick Installation Guide. 2 Boot the system that you want to configure from the CD. 3 Navigate to the cctk\x86 or cctk\x86_64 directory. 4 Run the CCTK commands. For more details on CCTK commands, see Client Configuration Toolkit Options. Command Syntax Overview Syntax refers to the way a command and its parameters are entered.
Table 2-1. Command Line Syntax (continued) Element Description optionX Indicates the generic multi-character designation for a utility name, where you can use X to distinguish multiple options used in the same command line instance. argX Indicates the generic designation for an argument, where you can use X to distinguish multiple arguments used in the same command line instance. [mandatory option] Indicates the generic designation for a mandatory argument.
Command Line Option Delimiters Table 2-2 lists some examples of valid and invalid CCTK command lines. Table 2-2. CCTK Command Line Examples Valid/ Invalid CCTK Command Line Example valid cctk --option1 --option2 cctk --asset --mem invalid cctk --option1=[argument] cctk --asset=1750 --option2 --option3 --floppy --biosromsize valid cctk -o=filename --option1 --option2 cctk -o=/tmp/myfile.txt --mem --sysname or or cctk -o filename --option1 --option2 cctk -o /tmp/myfile.
Read and Write Options You cannot combine the options that specify read and write actions in a command line instance. Table 2-3 provides examples for read and write commands. Table 2-3. Read and Write Command Examples Valid/Invalid CCTK Command Line Example valid cctk --option1 --option2 valid cctk --option1=arg --option2=arg invalid cctk --option1=arg --option2 File Input and Output Commands • Specify the input file using the -i= command, where is the name of the input file.
Help Option The -h and --help options display general usage information for the utility. If the argument matches a valid option, the usage information of that option is displayed. If the option has arguments, the arguments are displayed, separated by a | character. If the argument does not match a valid option, a usage error along with the usage information is displayed. Error Checking and Error Messages The CCTK utilities check your commands for correct syntax when you enter them.
3 Client Configuration Toolkit Options This chapter provides an overview of the Dell Client Configuration Toolkit (CCTK) options. It describes the general and BIOS options to configure settings for the client systems.
-h or --help Valid Argument Read-only Description Without an argument, this option displays general usage information for the utility. If the argument matches a valid option, the usage information of the option is displayed. If the option has arguments, the arguments are displayed, separated by a | character. If the option has suboptions, all suboptions, valid arguments, and a description are listed.
If this option is used with other function command options, they are applied in the order in which they appear on the command line, overriding any previous commands. In the .ini file, bootorder is displayed as boot order type with a list of comma separated device short forms in the order they are assigned. For example: bootorder=legacytype,+pcmcia,+hdd.1,-floppy,+cdrom,-hdd.2,+nic.1,hdd.3,+nic.
-l or --logfile Valid Argument Description Logs the command line output to a time-stamped file. The utility either appends the information to an existing log file or creates a new file. The log file contains the same information as the standard output, plus timestamp information. Users should use this option instead of redirection for task diagnosis. Example C:\>cctk -l /logfile No option Valid Argument Read-only Description If an option is not given, the CCTK utility outputs us
-o or --outfile Valid Argument Description Writes all BIOS options, that you can replicate to the BIOS of another system, to the specified filename. The file name you specify should have .ini extension and it is created in the default installation directory. The format of the output is in a .ini format, with the utility name as the section header. If a file with the same name already exists, the information is appended to the file.
--version Valid Argument Read-only Description Displays the version information, current time, and date for the utility. This is a read-only option. Example C:\>cctk --version cctk Version 2.0.0 (Windows - Mar 18 2011, 07:45:45) Copyright (c) 2011 Dell Inc. BIOS Options The following list describes CCTK options and arguments along with a description of their expected behavior. Options and arguments are case sensitive. All options and pre-defined arguments are lowercase unless stated otherwise.
--acpower Valid Argument off, last, on Description Sets the behavior of the system after AC power is lost. • off — When AC power is restored, the system remains powered off. • on — When AC power is restored, the system powers on. • last — When the AC power is restored, the system returns to the state it was in when the power was lost. Example C:\>cctk --acpower=off acpower=off --activityled Valid Argument actled, wlan, disable Description Sets the Network Activity LED to any of the following:
