Description
Modies the value of conguration objects on a component. The Set sub-command has two forms:
• The modication of a single object to a new value specied in the command line.
• The modication of multiple objects to new values using a conguration le.
It supports multi-object value import from two conguration le formats.
• INI format — The INI format les can be imported from a local le only
• Server Conguration Prole XML format — XML format les can be imported from a local le, from an NFS
network share or from a CIFS network share.
NOTE: To run theSet sub-command for Server Conguration Prole XML les, use the
Lifecycle Controller version 1.1 or later.
Depending on the type of conguration object being modied, the new values could be applied immediately (in
“real-time”) or require staging and a reboot of the system to apply the new values. The following components
support either real-time or staged application of new values:
• iDRAC with Lifecycle Controller
• PERC RAID controllers
NOTE: Use PERC RAID controllers with rmware version 9.1 or later. The real-time support
is provided only while performing hardware RAID conguration.
The following components require staging and system reboot for application of new values:
• BIOS
• Other PERC RAID controllers — For software RAID conguration
• Networking devices – Ethernet and Fibre Channel
NOTE
:
• To modify the value of staged objects such as BIOS or NIC, commit and reboot job creation must be used
to apply the pending values. When single object Setoperations are used to stage value modication, use
the jobqueue command to schedule a job to reboot the server and apply the new values. For staged multi-
object Setoperations using ini and xml conguration les, a job will automatically be created by the Set
command; use the –b, -w and -s options to specify how the staged reboot will be performed. For more
information, see jobqueue.
• To run this subcommand for conguration xml le type, the Lifecycle Contoller version 1.1 or later is
required.
