Use the dell deployment toolkit and from that toolkit use the syscfg script/command to enable it.
 
ie, 
syscfg --snoopfilter=enable
 
Good luck.

Hi all,

I have a bunch of PE1950 using the Greencreek Intel chipset, which features
a snoop-filter, and I have a couple questions about it:

1. is there a way to know if it's enabled or not from the OS?
2. is there a way to enable it without going to the BIOS? I think
that "omconfig chassis biossetup" does not allow this action. Is there a
plan to add this feature?
3; what would be the performance impact of enabling the snoop-filter on
memory-intensive jobs?

Thanks,
