One Time Boot
Use the boot management methods to perform one time boot to a BIOS boot
device. If you try to one time boot to a vFlash partition that is not attached,
Remote Services automatically attaches it and returns a job ID. You can query
the job using this ID.
To set one time boot:
1 Perform the enumerate operation on the DCIM_BootConfigSetting class
and identify the
ElementName field containing BootSeq and
corresponding InstanceID.
2 Perform the Enumerate operation on the DCIM_BootSourceSetting class
and identify the boot source InstanceID. The CurrentEnabledStatus
attribute of each instance identifies whether it is enabled or disabled.

instance information you got in
step 1 and step 2 and prepare the input
parameters.
4 Invoke the ChangeBootOrderByInstanceID() method.

parameters (for example, RebootJobType, ScheduledStartTime,
