omconfig Command Summary
The following table provides a high-level summary of the omconfig command. The columns titled Command level 2 and
Command level 3 list the major arguments that are used with omconfig. User privilege required refers to the type of privilege
you need to run the command, where U = User, P = Power User, and A = Administrator. Use is a very general statement about
the actions that are performed using omconfig.
NOTE: Although the following table lists all possible omconfig commands, the commands available on the system depend
on the system configuration. If you try to get help or run a command for a component not installed on the system, Server
Administrator displays a message that the component or feature is not found on the system.
NOTE: When CSIOR (Collect System Inventory on Restart) is disabled, omconfig does not allow to configure the BIOS
settings.
