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
- ./setupbios setting show
Gives a list of all the available BIOS settings for the server. (The "*" indicates the BIOS default setting)
Changing, saving, and deploying BIOS settings:
- ./setupbios setting set virtualization_tech enabled
Sets the Virtualization Technology BIOS setting to enabled.
- ./setupbios setting save >biosetting
Saves the current BIOS settings to the biosetting file. (You can view this file using the cat biosetting command.)
- ./setupbios setting readfile biosetting
Uses the saved configuration file (biosetting) to change the BIOS settings.
