SYSCFG For State Conguration
The SYSCFG utility allows the user to write a state data value on a system. This value is preserved across reboot or power-o
operations. Users can use this state data value for storing important state information, such as the progress of a multi-reboot
deployment process.
SYSCFG Options For State Conguration
The following table lists all valid options and arguments along with a description of the expected behavior of each option.
NOTE: Some of the following options or arguments are not available on all systems.
Table 309. SYSCFG Options For State Conguration
Option Valid Arguments Description
-b or --byte <string>
Species a value to write to state data. The format of the argument must be
in decimal format unless the -x option is given. If the -x option is given, the
value is interpreted as hexadecimal format. The value can optionally contain
0x. The decimal range is 0–255, and the hexadecimal range is 0x00–0xFF.
Example:
A:>syscfg -b 1
The state byte has been set to 1.
A:>syscfg -b 2 -x
The state byte has been set to 0x02.
-r or --read*
NOTE: The
asterisk is not
part of the
command syntax.
NA
Reads the value of state data. When used with the -x option, the value is
reported in hexadecimal format (0xNN).
Example:
A:>sysfg -r -x
The state byte has been set to 0x02.
A:>syscfg -r
The state byte has been set to 2.
-x or --hex
None
Species that a value should be in hexadecimal format.
Example:
A:>sysfg -r -x
The state byte has been set to 0x01.
A:>sysfg -x -b 0x02
The state byte has been set to 0x02.
