Invoke the

CreateTargetedConfigJob()

method to apply the pending

values. If this method is successful, the system must return a job ID for the

configuration task you created.

NOTE: The system must reboot to execute the task of setting the attribute or

attributes.

You can query the status of the jobID output using the job control profile

methods.

Repeat step 1 to confirm successful execution of the method.

Deleting the Pending Values

To delete the pending values:

Before invoking the

DeletePendingConfiguration()

method in

DCIM_JobService class, construct input parameters and use the correct

Fully Qualified Device Descriptor (FQDD) of the NIC/CNA.

NOTE: You can only delete pending data before creating a target job. After the

target job is created, you cannot run this method. If required, you can invoke

the DeleteJobQueue() method to delete the job and clear the pending values.

Invoke the

DeletePendingConfiguration()

method.

You can confirm the deletion based on the method return code value that

is returned.

Enabling or Disabling the Partition on the CNA

NOTE: Even if you disable the NicPartitioning property or the PartitionState

property, partition 1 cannot be disabled.

To enable or disable a partition on the CNA:

Enumerate the DCIM_NICEnumeration class and identify the current

value of the instances of the class with

AttributeName=

PartitionState

and their FQDD properties.

For the identified partition, use the FQDD property and invoke the

SetAttribute()

method to enable or disable the partition.

Run the Get command on the attribute to see the updated value in the

pending field.
