Set Boot Device and Reset
with Dell Servers · IT Infrastructure Management
Read a system, set a pending BIOS boot source, then reset it.
- Read the computer system to confirm it exists and capture its current power state before changing boot configuration.
- Set the pending BIOS attribute that selects the boot source. The change is staged and applied on the next system reboot.
- Issue the reset action so the pending BIOS boot attribute is applied on the next boot.
What you'll need to have ready
- systemId: Computer system identifier, typically System.Embedded.1.
- bootAttributeName: BIOS attribute name that selects the boot source, for example SetBootOrderEn or BootSeqRetry.
- bootAttributeValue: Desired value for the BIOS boot attribute.
- resetType: Reset action to apply the change, for example ForceRestart, GracefulRestart, or PowerCycle.
