i or inle
Table 10. SYSCFG General — i or inle
Valid Arguments <lename>
Description Directs the SYSCFG utility to take input from the .ini le. The utility searches the le for
a section heading identical to the utility name. An error is returned if the le or section is
not found. If the section is found, each name/value pair is applied to the system. The
names must match a valid option, and the arguments must be in the proper format for
the option. If an option is not available on a system and it is specied in a le, the utility
ignores the option. If any errors are found in the format of the names or values, an error
is returned and the options are not applied to the system. If this option is used with
other function command options, they are applied in the order in which they appear on
the command line, overriding any previous commands.
Example:
A:>syscfg -i <filename>.ini
ix or inxmlle
Table 11. SYSCFG General — ix or inxmlle
Valid Arguments <lename>
Description
Directs the SYSCFG utility to receive input from the xml le. The utility searches the
BIOS option in the le. An error is returned if the le is not found. The provided option
must match a valid option, and the arguments must be in the proper format for the
option. If an option is not available on a system and it is specied in a le, the utility
ignores the option. If any errors are found in the format of the names or values, an error
is returned and the options are not applied to the system. If this option is dependent on
any other option, they are applied in the order in which they appear in the xml le.
NOTE: It is applicable only on 12G and later systems.
Example:
A:>syscfg --ix filename.xml
NOTE: You can modify or use the BIOS conguration captured in xml format
from a PowerEdge server for large scale deployment congurations using
RACADM or WS-MAN. For more information on using RACADM and WS-MAN
refer
Integrated Dell Remote Access Controller 8 (iDRAC8) RACADM
Command Line Interface Reference Guide
and
Dell Lifecycle Controller-
Remote Services Quick Start Guide
respectively available at dell.com/support/
manuals.
l or logle
Table 12. SYSCFG General — l or logle
Valid Arguments <lename>
Description Logs the command line output to a time-stamped le. The utility either appends the
information to an existing log le or creates a new le. The log le contains the same
information as the standard output, plus timestamp information. Users should use this
option instead of redirection for task diagnosis. For more information, see Log Files .
