Read-Only=1, Read-Write=3
The OUT parameter Job will refer to the instance of CIM_ConcreteJob using which you can
query the status of the modification of the partition.
EXAMPLE:
wsman invoke -a ModifyPartition
http://schemas.dmtf.org/wbem/wscim/1/cimschema/
2/root/dcim/DCIM_PersistentStorageService
?SystemCreationClassName=DCIM_ComputerSystem,
CreationClassName=DCIM_PersistentStorageService,
SystemName=DCIM:ComputerSystem,Name=DCIM:PersistentStorageService
-h $IPADDRESS -V -v -c dummy.cert -P 443
-u $USERNAME -p $PASSWORD -J ModifyPartition.xml -j utf-8 –y basic
The input file ModifyPartition.xml is shown below:
<p:ModifyPartition_INPUT xmlns:p="
http://schemas.dell.com/wbem/wscim/1/cim-
schema/2/DCIM_PersistentStorageService">
<p:PartitionIndex>6</p:PartitionIndex>
<p:AccessType>3</p:AccessType>
</p:ModifyPartition_INPUT>
OUTPUT:
<n1:ModifyPartition_OUTPUT>
<n1:ReturnValue>2</n1:ReturnValue>
</n1:ModifyPartition_OUTPUT>
