Each time you create bootable media, configuration information is saved in a file named bomc.config, which is stored in a working directory and on bootable media.
The configuration file uses the Java property file format name=value. The default values specified in this file are listed in the following table.
| Configuration setting | Equivalent Command Line Interface (CLI) option | Default value |
|---|---|---|
| IBM_SYSTEM_ACQUIRE | --no-acquire | YES Notes:
|
| IBM_SYSTEM_AUTORUN | --autorun={update | dsa | none} | The first value specified by the function option. |
| IBM_SYSTEM_CD | --cd=volume | NULL |
| IBM_SYSTEM_DEPLOY_ ARCHITECTURE | --arch=x86 | x64 | x64 |
| IBM_SYSTEM_FORCE_OVERWRITE | --force | NO Notes:
|
| IBM_SYSTEM_FUNCTION | --function=update,dsa,serverguide | uxspi |
| IBM_SYSTEM_ISO_FILE | --iso=file_name | NULL |
| IBM_SYSTEM_KERNEL_ARGS | --kernel-args="key=value[ key=value...]" | NULL |
| IBM_SYSTEM_LATEST | --latest | NO |
| IBM_SYSTEM_MACHINETYPE | -m [all | {machine_type[,machine_type} | none] | --machine-type=[all | {machine_type[,machine_type} | none ] | NULL |
| IBM_SYSTEM_MEDIALABEL | --description=description | Bootable media - date |
| IBM_SYSTEM_NO_ FIRMWARE_UPDATE | --no-firmware | NULL |
| IBM_SYSTEM_NO_TIMESTAMP | There is no corresponding CLI option. This value can only be set in the bomc.config file. | NO By default, the unattended mode
log package is named:
UXSPI_mt_serialnumber _timestamp.tar.gz Note: Setting the value
of this option to YES , removes the timestamp from
the name of the file that is uploaded:
UXSPI_mt_serialnumber .tar.gz |
| IBM_SYSTEM_PAUSE_ON_ERROR | There is no corresponding CLI option. This value can only be set in the bomc.config file. | 60 Specifies the length of time, in seconds, to pause during upload of the unattended package in the event of an error to give you time to respond. |
| IBM_SYSTEM_PROXY_ADDRESS | --proxy-address=address | NULL |
| IBM_SYSTEM_PROXY_PASSWORD | --proxy-password=password | NULL Note: This password is not saved
in the configuration file.
|
| IBM_SYSTEM_PROXY_PORT | --proxy-port=port | NULL |
| IBM_SYSTEM_PROXY_USER | --proxy-user=user_ID | NULL |
| IBM_SYSTEM_PXE_FILE | --pxe=directory | NULL |
| IBM_SYSTEM_PXE_TFTP_ADDRESS | --tftp-pxe-address=ip_address | 9.123.196.61 |
| IBM_SYSTEM_TIMEOUT | --timeout=1-65535 | 60 |
| IBM_SYSTEM_TOOL_FILE | -tfile_name | --toolzip=file_name | lnvgy_utl_boot_tools-141_ anyos_x86-64.zip |
| IBM_SYSTEM_TUI | --tui | NO Notes:
|
| IBM_SYSTEM_UNATTENDED | --unattended=protocol://address/directory | NULL |
| IBM_SYSTEM_UPDATE_HBACNA | --new | NO Notes:
|
| IBM_SYSTEM_USB_KEY | --usbkey=volume | NULL |
| IBM_SYSTEM_VLANID | vlan-id=0-4095 | NULL |
| IBM_SYSTEM_VLANIP | vlanip=ip_address | NULL |
| IBM_SYSTEM_WORKINGDIR | -l directory | --local=directory | The current directory where the tool is being run from. |
