7.8 CreateRebootJob()
The CreateRebootJob() method creates a reboot job that can be scheduled to reboot immediately or
at a later time. When the reboot job is scheduled and then executed, via SetupJobQueue() (Section
10.2.1), the reboot will take several minutes depending on the system setup, including whether
collecting system inventory (CSIOR) is enabled.
Invoke CreateRebootJob with the following parameters and syntax:
RebootJobType: There are three options for rebooting the system.
1 = PowerCycle
2 = Graceful Reboot without forced shutdown
3 = Graceful reboot with forced shutdown
EXAMPLE:
winrm invoke CreateRebootJob cimv2/root/dcim/DCIM_SoftwareInstallationService

-file:reboot.xml
-u:[USER] -p:[PASSWORD]
-r:https://[IPADDRESS]/wsman:443
-SkipCNCheck -auth:basic -encoding:utf-8
