4. CreateNICConfigJob()
5. Set Port Attributes as follows:
SetNICAttributes() on NIC.Integrated.1-1-1
AttributeName=FirstFCoEWWPNTarget AttributeValue=$FirstFCoEWWPNTarget
AttributeName=FirstFCoEBootTargetLUN AttributeValue=$FirstFCoEBootTargetLUN
6. CreateNICConfigJob() with RebootJobType=1
E) GetBootSourceSettings(): ENUMERATE the DCIM_BootSourceSetting class to collect information
about the boot sources. See section 2.2 for a definition of ENUMERATE .
Loop through all boot sources, if boot source is IPL entry, set EnabledState=0 unless HD.
F) ChangeBootSourceState(): Use InstanceID=IPL EnabledState=0 source=(instanceID from D)
G) GetBootSourceSettings(): ENUMERATE the DCIM_BootSourceSetting class to collect information
about the boot sources. See section 2.2 for a definition of ENUMERATE.
H) Enable the HD boot source
I) ChangeBootSourceState(): Use InstanceID=IPL EnabledState=1 source=(instanceID from F)
GetBootSourceSettings(): ENUMERATE the DCIM_BootSourceSetting class to collect
information about the boot sources. See section 2.2 for a definition of ENUMERATE.
Change NIC boot source
J) GetBootSourceSettings(): ENUMERATE the DCIM_BootSourceSetting class to collect information
about the boot sources. See section 2.2 for a definition of ENUMERATE .
Check NIC boot order
K) ChangeBootOrderByInstanceID(): Use InstanceID=IPL source=(instanceID from I)
SetNICAttributes(): Set the attribute LegacyBootProto to the value “FCoE” and the other
desired NIC attributes and values
L) CreateBIOSConfigJob(): Use Target=(BIOS FQDD)
ScheduledStartTime=TIME_NOW RebootJobType=1
M) Poll jobstatus for Completed: GET the InstanceID of from F). See section 2.3 for a definition of
GET.
4.22 FCoE boot using Intel (12G only)
This workflow sets several NIC attributes, including setup of Fiber Channel over Ethernet
(FCoE), by first setting the attributes for the operation and then changing the boot order for
