This article describes how to manage the PowerEdge C-Series servers using the SetupBIOS Tool


 

Setupbios is a PowerEdge-C specific tool that allows for on the fly collection of BIOS settings and facilitates deployment using a configuration file created from a baseline system

It can be downloaded from poweredgec.dell.com.


The tool requires a bios_settings.cxxxx file in order to operate. This settings file must be located in the directory from where the tool is used.

*NOTE* For x64 Operating Systems, you need to use the "alternate version" of setupbios. (setupbios.static…)

*NOTE* Recommend install directory for the tool and the settings files: /opt/dell/pec/sys_mgmt_pack/setupbios/ 
 
  • ./setupbios

Shows a list of commands that can be used with the tool
