CLI Guide

Omconfig Preferences Cdvformat
Use the omconfig preferences cdvformat to specify the delimiters for separating data fields reported in the custom delimited
format. The valid values for delimiters are: exclamation, semicolon, at, hash, dollar, percent, caret, asterisk, tilde, question, colon, comma,
and pipe.
The following example shows how to set the delimiter for separating data fields to asterisk:
omconfig preferences cdvformat delimiter=asterisk
Omconfig Preferences Dirservice
Use the omconfig preferences dirservice command to configure the Active Directory service. The <productname>oem.ini
file is modified to reflect these changes. If the "adproductname" is not present in the <productname>oem.ini file then a
<computername>-<computername> refers to the name of the computer running Server Administrator and <productname> refers to
the name of the product defined in omprv32.ini. For Server Administrator, the product name is "omsa".
Therefore, for a computer named "myOmsa" running Server Administrator, the default name is "myOmsa–omsa". This is the name of
Server Administrator defined in Active Directory by using the snap-in tool. This name must match the name for the application object in
Active Directory in order to find user privileges.
NOTE:
This command is applicable only on systems running the Windows operating system.
The following table displays the valid parameters for the command:
Table 60. Valid Parameters Of Omconfig Preferences Dirservice

prodname=<text> Specifies the product to which you want to apply the Active Directory configuration changes. prodname

true: Enables Active Directory service authentication support and the Active Directory Login option on the

false: Disables Active Directory service authentication support and the Active Directory Login option on the
login page. If the Active Directory Login option is not present, you can only login to the local machine

adprodname=<text> Specifies the name of the product as defined in the Active Directory service. This name links the product with
the Active Directory privilege data for user authentication.
