FileSize: Size of the exported file
SessionID: A unique session ID is generated and it will be used in the sub-sequent packets. This
ensures that blocks are pertaining to the same file.
TxfrDescriptor: Transfer descriptor value
1 – Start of Transmit
2 – Normal Transmission
3 – End of Packet
RetFileOffset: Current position (offset) of the exported file.
RetTxDataSize: Transmitted data size of the export file.
PayLoadEncoding: Payload encoding format.
Text
Base64
PayLoad: iDRAC will send the payload as base64 encoded format.
CRC: CRC of entire export file. md5 checksum algorithm is used for CRC calulation, it's value is 128
bytes.
EXAMPLE:
wsman invoke -a ExportData
"http://schemas.dmtf.org/wbem/wscim/1/cim-schema/2/root/dcim/DCIM_iDRACCardSer
vice?SystemCreationClassName=DCIM_ComputerSystem,CreationClassName=DCIM_iDRACC

-h $IPADDRESS -V -v -c dummy.cert -P 443
-u $USERNAME -p $PASSWORD
-J ExportFileData_start.xml -j utf-8 -y basic
ExportFileData_start.xml: Contains the following parameters.
