Remote Services Operations 55

Before invoking the

CreateTargetedConfigJob()

method, construct the

input parameters (Target, RebootJobType, ScheduledStartTime,

UntilTime, and so on).

If more than one partition on a port has a configuration change, do not

specify RebootJobType and ScheduledStartTime. Schedule the job using

the job control profile methods. Go to

step 6 to create the jobs.

NOTE: See the Simple NIC Profile document at

delltechcenter.com/page/DCIM.Library to see the list of all the supported

input parameters.

Invoke the

CreateTargetedConfigJob()

method to apply the pending

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

created configuration task.

NOTE: Reboot system to execute the task of setting the attribute or attributes.

Create a reboot job with

CreateRebootJob()

and schedule all the partition

jobs and the reboot job using

SetupJobQueue()

NOTE: Pending changes on the partitions are lost if partition jobs are not

scheduled to run together.

Query the status of the jobID output using the job control profile

methods.

Repeat step 1 to confirm successful execution of the method.

Managing vFlash SD Card

vFlash is the Non-volatile Random Access Memory (NVRAM) flash located

on a SD card that is inserted into the SD card reader controlled by the iDRAC

service processor. The card is used as a feature enabling license key for several

Lifecycle Controller features including Part Replacement. Additionally, the

vFlash SD card is the storage location for partitions that you can define and

configure to be available to the system as a USB device. You can create a

bootable USB device that is displayed as an option under the BIOS boot

menu.

For more information on the vFlash SD card, see the
