Extract
— For extract action, CMOS content is saved to the le: $PF_cmos.$VER .
NOTE:
$PF - Is the name of the platform, including C10, C00, R10, R00, and VL10.
$VER - Is the version of the BIOS, such as 1.0B_SPC001(1.0B_SPC001-0407),
1.0B-0407(Zilch), 1.0H_SPC-0T51(R10, R00), 1.19R(VL10).
Wyse ThinOS log: "CMOS: extract to $PF_cmos.$VER"
Restore — For restore action, CMOS content is updated from the le:
$PF_cmos.$VER
Wyse ThinOS log: "CMOS: restore from $PF_cmos.$VER"
When using this feature, there should be a special INI user name such as cmos. The
associated ini/cmos.ini should include one line as Device=cmos Action=extract.
NOTE: Do not include Device=cmos Action=extract in a global INI le such
as wnos.ini, as it will take no eect if it is included in the global INI le.
After the administrator congures the CMOS on a template unit, the administrator
should sign on to the cmos account on ThinOS to have the CMOS content saved to
the cmos le on a writable File Server wnos directory.
Then, the wnos.ini should be congured with Device=CMOS action=restore, so that all
target units will be updated with the same CMOS setting as the template unit after
reboot.
Once the restore action is nished, both the Device=cmos Action=extract and
Device=CMOS action=restore should be removed from the related INI les.
The usage of other settings is self-explanatory. The only condition to use the settings
is the BIOS GUI should have such settings.
[CurrentPassword= password NewPassword = password]—This option is used to
change the device BIOS password. CurrenPassword is required. The maximum count
of the password string is 19 bytes.
[AutoPowerDate={yes,no}]— This option is used to enable the system to turn on
automatically on a scheduled time and day.
If the value specied is no, the system does not turn on automatically.
If the value specied is yes, the system turns on automatically at the time specied in
AutoPowerTime and AutoPowerDays.
AutoPowerTime—This option species the time for the system to turn on
automatically. The value range for hh is 0 - 23 and the range for mm and ss is 0 - 59.
AutoPowerDays—This option species the day to turn on the system automatically.
For example, Device=Cmos AutoPowerDate=yes AutoPowerTime=2:30:30
AutoPowerDays=Sunday;Friday;Saturday
[CurrentPasswordEnc=password encrypted]—This option is used to provide
encrypted current password.
[NewPasswordEnc=password encrypted]—This option is used to provide encrypted
new password. Note: Password encrypted will be higher priority. For example, if
CurrentPassword and CurrentPasswordEnc are both congured, CurrentPasswordEnc
overwrites the CurrentPassword.
