D) ENUMERATE the DCIM_NICEnumeration, DCIM_NICString, DCIM_NICInteger, and
DCIM_BIOSEnumeration classes to collect information about the system. See section 2.2
for a definition of ENUMERATE .
E) SetBIOSAttributes(): Set all the following attributes, if at least one is not set to desired
value
a. EmbNic1Nic2=Enabled
b. BootMode=BIOS
c. ProcVirtualization= Enabled
d. ErrPrompt=Disabled
e. EmbNic1=Enabled
F) CreateBIOSConfigJob(): Apply step E) with reboot type 3 and ScheduledStartTime
parameter of TIME_NOW, which invokes the operation immediately [ReturnValue=4096]
G) Poll jobstatus for Completed: GET the InstanceID of from F). See section 2.3 for a
definition of GET.
NOTE: The following status polling for SSIB task
F) The Lifecycle Controller remote service must be in a “ready” state before executing any
other WSMAN commands. The GetRSStatus() method or the GetRemoteServicesAPIStatus()
method may be used depending on the version of the LC Management registered profile.
NOTE: The following status polling is for subsequent CSIOR
G) The Lifecycle Controller remote service must be in a “ready” state before executing any
other WSMAN commands. The GetRSStatus() method or the GetRemoteServicesAPIStatus()
method may be used depending on the version of the LC Management registered profile.
H) ENUMERATE the DCIM_BootSourceSetting class to collect information about the system.
See section 2.2 for a definition of ENUMERATE .
I) ChangeBootSourceState(): Loop through boot sources and set their enabled state to zero,
except for NIC [ReturnValue=4096]
J) ChangeBootOrderByInstanceID(): Set the boot order of the NIC to first
(CurrentAssignedSequence = 0) [ReturnValue=0]
K) SetAttribute(): Set BIOS attributes EmbNic1 to EnablediScsi [ReturnValue=0]
L) CreateBIOSConfigJob(): Apply steps J) – L) without reboot, without UntilTime, and without
ScheduledStartTime parameter TIME_NOW. [ReturnValue=4096]
M) SetAttribute(): Set various NIC attributes
N) CreateNICConfigJob(): Apply steps N) without reboot, without UntilTime, and without
ScheduledStartTime parameter TIME_NOW. [ReturnValue=4096]
O) CreateRebootJob(): Pass RebootJobType of 3 parameter
1 = PowerCycle
2 = Graceful reboot without forced shutdown
3 = Graceful reboot with forced shutdown
P) SetupJobQueue(): Use BIOS JID(L), NIC JID(N), and reboot RID(O) [ReturnValue=0]
