7.3 BIOS Firmware “Rollback”
The InstallFromSoftwareIdentity() method is used for installation of a earlier version of a component
firmware that is available on the Lifecycle Controller (that is “rollback” of component firmware).
All steps to complete a rollback successfully are listed below.
Invoke InstallFromSoftwareIdentity() with the following parameters and syntax:
[InstanceID]: This is the instanceID of the SoftwareIdentify that is to be used to rollback the firmware to a
earlier version. The InstanceID can have the following values:
DCIM:AVAILABLE:NONPCI:159:2.1.4
 It is available firmware on a NONPCI device.
 This refers BIOS version 2.1.4
EXAMPLE:
wsman invoke -a InstallFromSoftwareIdentity
