COMMAND

DESCRIPTION

kBoardConfig

Configures non-volatile board settings, such as:

» Pxe
» PrimaryDisplay
» SataMode
» SataSpeed
» Sata0Hotplug

(SATA0 in the uEFI BIOS corresponds to port SATA-A in the port mapping)

» Sata1Hotplug

(SATA1 in the uEFI BIOS corresponds to port SATA-B in the port mapping)

» IntelVT
» IntelHT
» SpeedStep
» CpuTurbo
» cTDP
» C3State
» C6State
» C7State
» AMC configuration options (e.g. “AMCBaseCfg”, “AMCPort<n>”, “AMCFclka”, etc.)
» WrProtSystem
» AutoUpdate

If AutoUpdate is enabled, an automatic update procedure from the connected mass storage
device is initiated after a reset. The update status is indicated in the log file located in the
directory where the firmware images are stored.

Note:

The parameters of the

kBoardConfig command are not case-sensitive.

kBoardInfo

Shows a summary of board-specific data and displays/checks various parameters such as the
current uEFI BIOS revision, etc.

kBootScript

Manages the flash-stored startup script
If the shell is launched by the boot process, it executes a shell script stored in the flash. If the
shell script terminates, the shell will continue the boot process. However, the shell script can
also contain any other boot command.

kFlash

Programs and verifies the SPI boot flashes holding the uEFI BIOS code
uEFI BIOS binary files must be available from connected mass storage devices, such as USB
flash drive or harddisk.

kIpmi

Executes a comprehensive set of IPMI functions from the uEFI Shell using the KCS interface and
upgrades the IPMI firmware.

kJtag

Programs an onboard device via the JTAG interface

kNvram

Manages the NVRAM to restore the system’s default settings
Since all uEFI settings are stored inside the NVRAM, the default settings are loaded after invok-
ing this command.
