Important Notes
SYSCFG
Some options may not be present on all systems, which may be due to the BIOS version or hardware
feature set. The usage information generated by running SYSCFG without arguments shows only those
options that are valid for your system.
The "--devseq" option is present only if you have an available, bootable hard-disk partition. If this option
is present in the configuration file, but not present on your system, you will receive a usage error.
It is required to perform a warm reboot after applying the syscfg settings changes on Dell PowerEdge
12G systems.
If you perform operations that change the "--redmem" option, reboot your system immediately. It is
applicable to both command line and "--infile" usage.
NOTE: Additionally, the "--redmem" option should not be issued with any other command and should
be immediately followed by a system reboot. This is important when you develop scripts that can alter
the "--redmem" setting.
For options that use text strings such as username, password, hostname, and community string, using
characters such as <space>, "<," ">," "|," "=" on the command line can be misinterpreted by the command
line parser and may cause errors. To avoid such errors, use only alphanumeric characters.
If you set the username using syscfg username option, Serial Over Lan (SOL) access for the
corresponding user will be enabled by default. You can disable SOL access for a user using "syscfg
solaction --userid=<userid> --action=disable" command.
The maximum reliably supported baud rates (--solbitrate) are:
o 57600 for PowerEdge 9G systems without Dell Remote Access Controller 5 (DRAC 5).
