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.

CCTK options can be divided into:

• General options — Applicable to all systems.

• BIOS options — Applicable only if the BIOS of the system supports.

NOTE: If you are running CCTK commands on systems running Windows Vista or later, you must run the commands

with the administrator privileges. Running the command displays a pop-up window where you can enter the

administrator ID and password.

NOTE: If you run CCTK commands on systems running Windows XP, Windows Vista or later without administrator

privileges, the following error message is displayed: 'admin/root' privileges required to

execute this application.

General Options

The following are the general options of CCTK.

NOTE: Some of the options in CCTK are followed by an asterisk. These options do not accept any suboptions or

arguments. The values associated with these options are those that are reported by the BIOS. You cannot modify

these values.

-h or --help

Valid Argument none or <

valid option name

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

argument is supported on the system, a + symbol is displayed with the argument. If the

option has suboptions, all suboptions, valid arguments, and a description are listed. If the

argument does not match a valid option, a usage error is given (and usage information is

displayed).
