17.7 Applying the Pending Values for BIOS & Boot-
CreateTargetedConfigJob()
This method is called to apply the pending values created by the SetAttribute()
,
SetAttributes(),
ChangeBootOrderByInstanceID(), and ChangeBootSourceState() methods. The system will automatically
reboot depending on the
ScheduledStartTime
selected. Using the CreateTargetedConfigJob()
jobID
output with the job control section can be used to obtain its status.
Invoke CreateTargetedConfigJob() with the following parameters and syntax:
TARGET: This Parameter is the FQDD of the
BIOSAttribute
instances, obtained from the
InstanceID
field in
Section
17.1
RebootJobType: There are three options for rebooting the system.
1 = PowerCycle
2 = Graceful Reboot without forced shutdown
3 = Graceful reboot with forced shutdown
Note: When you do not want to set a reboot type when creating a target job, you should comment
