SYSCFG utility reports the asset tag for both the server module and
the asset tag for its chassis. For more information on delimiters, see
Command Line Option Delimiters .
Example:
A:>syscfg --asset
asset=ASSET
--biosver*
None
Reports the BIOS version for a system. If used with the -s option, the
environment variable is set to the BIOS version.
Example:
A:>syscfg --biosver
biosver=A08
--chassvctag*
None
Reports the chassis service tag on blade systems.
Example:
A:>syscfg --chassvctag
chassvctag=SVCTAG1
--cpucount*

Example 1:
A:>syscfg --cpucount cpucount=1
Example 2:
A:>syscfg --cpucount cpucount=2
--cpuspeed*
None
Reports the speed of all processors in a system.
Example:
A:>syscfg --cpuspeed
cpuspeed=1000MHz
--envfile <filename>
Reads the environment variable file (included in DTK as sys.ini ) and
sets environment variables to names in the file, based on the system's
information. Primarily, this command performs a PCI scan and
matches the vendor/device numbers of the devices to those specified
in the environment variable file. For more information, see the
Environment Variable File.
Example:
A:>syscfg --envfile sys.ini
DELLNIC1=INTEL PRO100
DELLNIC2=INTEL PRO100
DVIDEO1=RAGEXL
DIDE1=PEQUR/ROSS IDE
DSCSI1=AIC-7899
