Table 9. -O or --Outfile
Attribute Details Description
Valid Argument <filename>
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 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 file with the same name already exists, the information is appended
to the file. 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 file is created
in the directory where you run the Dell Command | Configure command.
In the INI file, 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 file is applied to a system based on its active boot
list. If the INI file 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
