Option Valid Arguments Description
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 le (included in DTK as sys.ini ) and sets
environment variables to names in the le, based on the system's information.
Primarily, this command performs a PCI scan and matches the vendor/device
numbers of the devices to those specied in the environment variable le. 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
--mem*
None
Reports the amount of system memory physically installed in the system, not
the amount of memory available to an operating system. If used with the -s
option, the environment variable is set to the amount of system memory. The
last two characters of the memory value indicate the order of magnitude used
(KB or MB).
Example:
A:>syscfg --mem
mem=256MB
-n <filename>
Species an input le to use for resolving PCI vendor and device numbers to
strings. The le must be present (with read rights) and contain a properly
formatted list. For more information, see PCI Reporting . This option must be
used with the pci option.
Example:
A:>syscfg -n pci.txt --pci
PCI Bus: 2, Device: 4, Function: 0
Vendor: 8086 - Intel Corp.
Device: 1229 - 82557/8/9 [Ethernet Pro 100]
Sub Vendor:8086 - Intel Corp.
Sub Device:1017 - EtherExpress
PRO/100+ Dual Port Server Adapter
Slot: 01
Class: 02 - Network
SubClass: 00 - Ethernet
--ovrwrt*
None
When used with the outfile option, this option species that the output
le should be overwritten if it exists.
NOTE: This option is applicable only on PowerEdge systems prior to
12G.
Example:
A:>syscfg -outfile=out.ini --ovrwrt
