Description
Modifies the value of configuration objects on a component. The Set sub-command has two forms:
● The modification of a single object to a new value specified in the command line.
● The modification of multiple objects to new values using a configuration file.
It supports multi-object value import from two configuration file formats.
○ INI format — The INI format files can be imported from a local file only
○ Server Configuration Profile XML format — XML format files can be imported from a local file, from
an NFS network share or from a CIFS network share.
NOTE: To run theSet sub-command for Server Configuration Profile XML files, use the
Lifecycle Controller version 1.1 or later.
Depending on the type of configuration object being modified, 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 firmware version 9.1 or later. The real-time support is
provided only while performing hardware RAID configuration.
The following components require staging and system reboot for application of new values:
● BIOS
● Other PERC RAID controllers — For software RAID configuration
● 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
modification, 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 configuration files, 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 configuration xml file type, the Lifecycle Contoller version 1.1 or later is
required.
NOTE: This command supports both IPV4 and IPV6 formats. IPV6 is applicable only for CIFS, HTTP,
and HTTPS remote shares.
