-o or --outle

Valid Argument <lename>

Description

Writes all BIOS options, that you can replicate to the BIOS of another system, to the specied

lename. The le name you specify should have INI extension and should be created in the default

installation directory. The format of the output is in an INI format, with the utility name as the

section header. If a le with the same name already exists, the information is appended to the le.

If this option is used with other function commands, the commands are applied in the order in

which they appear. This option captures replicable BIOS options. The le is created in the directory

where you run the Dell Command | Congure command.

In the INI le, bootorder is displayed as a list of comma separated device short forms in the order

they are assigned. A plus (+) symbol with the device name indicates that the device is enabled and

a minus (-) symbol indicates that the device is disabled. You can change the boot order by

changing the order of the list. You can also enter the device number instead of the device name.

You can enable or disable the devices by changing the symbol displayed with the device. These

symbols are optional and if not present, the current status of the device is retained.

NOTE: The bootorder option in the INI le is applied to a system based on its active boot

list. If the INI le is generated from a system with the active boot list set as UEFI, and it

is applied on a system with the active boot list set as legacy, the boot order is set only on

devices that are available in the system. It is recommended that you apply the INI le on

a system with the same active boot list as of the system from where the INI le is

generated.

Example

C:\>cctk -o <c:/cctk>/filename.ini

NOTE: For the systems running Ubuntu Core operating system, run dcc.cctk -o /var/

snap/dcc/current/<lename>.ini
