50 SYSCFG
--osmode enable,
disable
This option enables or disables operating system
installation mode for installing operating systems.
Enabling this option causes the BIOS to only
report 256 MB to the operating system. Some
operating systems cannot be installed if a system
has more than 2 GB of memory. This option can
be replicated.
Example:
A:>syscfg --osmode=enable
osmode=enable
--
oswatchdogtimer
enable,
disable
If your system stops responding, the watchdog
timer aids in the recovery of your operating
system. When this option is set to enable, the
operating system is allowed to initialize the timer.
When set to disable (the default), the timer will
have no effect on the system.
Example:
A:>syscfg --oswatchdogtimer=enable
oswatchdogtimer=enable
--ovrwrt* NA This option is only used with the -o option to
cause the output file to be overwritten if a file of
the same name already exists. This option cannot
be replicated.
Example:
A:>syscfg -o=
filename .ini --ovrwrt
The file
filename has been
overwritten.
NOTE: The asterisk is not part of the command
syntax.
