SYSCFG 27
-l
or
--logfile
NA <filename> This option 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. This option can be replicated. See "Log
Files" for more information.
Example:
A:>syscfg -l
logfile
-o
or
--outfile-o
or --
outfile
NA <filename> This option outputs all replicable options to the specified filename.
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. If this option is used with other function
commands, the commands are applied in the order in which they appear.
This option captures replicable BMC and BIOS options.
Example:
A:>syscfg -o
filename.ini
-s NA <string> This option prints the variable name and the value assigned to it to the
console. This option when used with --envar, picks up the environment
variable data and stores it in a file. This file can be called from a script. See
"--envar" for more information.
Example:
A:>syscfg -s ENVNAME --svctag
svctag=SERVICE
ENVNAME=SERVICE
--envar NA <filename> This option stores the environment variable data to a file so that this file
can be called from other scripts.
Must have a valid path, and media should be writable.
--version* This option displays the version information, current time, and date for
the utility. This option cannot be replicated.
Example:
A:>syscfg --version
syscfg version 1.X.XX AXX
