Remote Services Operations 51

One Time Boot

Use the boot management methods to perform one time boot to a BIOS boot

device. If you try to one time boot to a vFlash partition that is not attached,

Remote Services automatically attaches it and returns a job ID. You can query

the job using this ID.

To set one time boot:

Perform the enumerate operation on the DCIM_BootConfigSetting class

and identify the ElementName field containing BootSeq and

corresponding InstanceID.

Perform the Enumerate operation on the DCIM_BootSourceSetting class

and identify the boot source InstanceID. The CurrentEnabledStatus

attribute of each instance identifies whether it is enabled or disabled.

Before invoking the

ChangeBootOrderByInstanceID()

method, note the

instance information you got in step 1 and step 2 and prepare the input

parameters.

Invoke the

ChangeBootOrderByInstanceID()

method.

Examine output parameters.

Before invoking the

CreateTargetedConfigJob()

method, prepare input

parameters (for example, RebootJobType, ScheduledStartTime,

UntilTime, Job, and so on) and use the correct BIOS FQDD.

Invoke the

CreateTargetedConfigJob()

method.

NOTE: The system must reboot to execute the task of setting the attribute or

attributes.

Query the status of the jobID output using the job control profile

methods.

Repeat step 2 to confirm successful execution of the method.
