Clear or Reset Bios Password for large Estate?

Question

We are trying to clear the setup and sytem bios password from a large estate of machines (over 5000) . We have currently tried the CCTK using SCCM with the following commmand:

cctk --setuppwd=

Also tried with CCTK GUI as specified in page 15 of the Dell Client Configuration Guide Version 2.0 User's Guide, on how to clear the BIOS passwords. These method works for machines that we know the BIOS password for. However on machines that have an unknown BIOS password this method fails.

Is there a way to centrally claim back ( or clear ) the BIOS passwords for a large estate on machines that we don't know the BIOS password for?

Not with CCTK, or it would essentially make any secured BIOS un-securable without needing the password.  You will need to contact Tech Support as they can assist with re-setting password locked BIOSes.  I don't know if they can only do individual systems or if they have something that you can deploy.
