6.5 WS-Man (winrm) workflow example using Auto Config server
provisioning in Windows Server environment
This example assumes that Windows Server 2012 DHCP server, CIFS share, and multiple currently deployed
PowerEdge R730 servers with common BIOS settings are used. Also, there is a separate R730 server,
located in a lab on a static network environment that will be relocated to the Windows Server DHCP
environment. The goal is to update that R730 to apply the same BIOS configuration as the currently deployed
R730 server’s.
1. Begin by retrieving the current BIOS configuration from one of the R730 servers within the DHCP environment. Using WS-Man
winrm commands, invoke ExportSystemConfiguration to export the Server Configuration Profile file to a CIFS share.
2. Because the objective is to synchronize the BIOS configuration, use the parameter Target and specify the value “BIOS”.
