Valid Arguments
• On systems prior to 13G: NA
• On 13G and later systems: Standard, Controlled
Description
Secures the UEFI variables. When set to Standard, the UEFI variables are accessible
from the operating system as per the UEFI specification. When set to Controlled,
selected UEFI variables are protected in the operating system and new UEFI boot

UefiBootSeq
Table 220. UefiBootSeq
Valid Arguments
• On systems prior to 12G
: NA
• On 12G and later systems
: list of device names separated by commas
Description
Enables, disables, and orders the devices in a UEFI boot order list. Only the devices
present on the system are listed in the UefiBootSeq. The first option in the list is
attempted first. If the first option is not successful, the second option is attempted,
and so on. The system attempts to launch only the enabled boot options and does not
launch disabled boot options. This option is applicable when bootmode is set to UEFI
and has no effect when bootmode is set to BIOS.
NOTE: Only the devices listed in the bootseq are enabled.
Applicable Systems All PowerEdge 12 and later systems.
