SYSCFG
This section documents the Deployment Toolkit (DTK) system configuration utility. It describes the command line parameters,
configuration file format, and individual executables used to configure server BIOS and Baseboard Management Controller
(BMC) settings, DTK state settings, and system information including PCI device detection.
Topics:
• Features
• SYSCFG General Options
• SYSCFG For BIOS Configuration
• Sub Options And Arguments For power Option
• Sub Options And Arguments For tcm Option
• Sub Options And Arguments For tpm Option
• SYSCFG For BMC And Remote Access Controller Configuration
• SYSCFG For State Configuration
• SYSCFG for System Configuration
• SYSCFG For IPv6 Configuration
• PCI Reporting
Features
The SYSCFG utility:
● Displays help and usage information.
● Outputs configuration options to a file or screen.
● Reads configuration options from a file or Command Line Interface (CLI) parameters.
● Configures BMC/Remote Access Controller (RAC) users, local area network (LAN) channel and serial channel settings,
BMC/RAC platform event filter (PEF) settings, and BMC/RAC serial-over-LAN (SOL) settings.
● Configures the nonmaskable interrupt (NMI) and power button.
● Reports the BMC/RAC firmware version, BMC/RAC device global unique identifier (GUID), and BMC/RAC LAN channel and
serial channel information.
● Reports BMC/RAC session information.
● Clears BMC/RAC system event log (SEL).
● Restores BMC/RAC factory defaults.
● Records and reports the state data value.
● Displays system configuration information.
● Returns specific error codes and messages.
● Logs activity to a given filename.
● Configures the BIOS features using ini file, DTK xml file, and ws-man xml file.
NOTE:
In Microsoft Windows Preinstallation Environment (Windows PE), the SYSCFG utility is located at
\dell\toolkit\tools or \dell\toolkit\tools directory. In Linux, you can find it in the/opt/dell/
toolkit/bin directory.
SYSCFG General Options
NOTE:
Some of the options in SYSCFG are followed by an asterisk. The asterisk is not part of the command syntax. Such
options are used for reporting purposes only. These commands do not accept any sub-options or arguments. The values
associated with these commands are reported by the BIOS. You cannot modify these values.
