• On 12G and later systems: On, O
Description
Turns the keyboard number lock on or o. This option is not replicated.
Example:
A:>syscfg --numlock=on
numlock=on
Applicable Systems All PowerEdge systems.
ForceInt10
Table 76. ForceInt10
Valid Arguments
• On systems prior to 13G: NA
• On 13G and later systems: Enabled, Disabled
Description
Determines whether the system BIOS loads the legacy video (INT 10h) option ROM
from the video controller or not. Set to Enabled if the operating system does not
support UEFI video output standards.
NOTE: This eld is supported only in UEFI boot mode. This eld cannot be set
to
Enabled if UEFI SecureBoot is enabled.
Example:
A:>syscfg --ForceInt10=Enabled
Applicable Systems PowerEdge 13G and later systems
InSystemCharacterization
Table 77. InSystemCharacterization
Valid Arguments
• On systems prior to 12G: NA
• On 12G and later systems: FastBoot, OptimizedBoot, Disabled
Description
In-System Characterization (ISC) runs during power-on self-test (POST) on detecting
relevant changes in the system conguration to optimize power and performance. ISC
takes about 20 seconds to run, and a system restart is required to apply the system
conguration changes. The FastBoot option runs ISC and continues without applying
ISC results until the next system restart. The OptimizedBoot option runs ISC and
forces an immediate system restart to apply the results. If set to
Disabled, ISC does
not run.
Example:
A:>syscfg --InSystemCharacterization=FastBoot
InSystemCharacterization=FastBoot
ReportKbdErr/rptkeyerr
Table 78. ReportKbdErr/rptkeyerr
Valid Arguments
• On systems prior to 12G: enable, disable
• On 12G and later systems: Report, Noreport
Description
Enables or disables the BIOS to report keyboard errors during POST. This option can be
replicated.
