Figure 2 represents the class schema for the boot management feature of the BIOS and Boot
Management Profile. For simplicity, the prefix CIM_ has been removed from the names of the classes.
Each boot list is represented by a DCIM_BootConfigSetting instance. Each of the boot lists contains the
boot devices/sources represented by DCIM_BootSourceSetting, shown underneath their corresponding
boot lists in the figure below. Note that the InstanceID property value prefix of the
DCIM_BootSourceSetting instance matches the InstanceID of the DCIM_BootConfigSetting. Also note
that IPL boot list contains a BCV boot list.
