3 Overview
The remote interface guidelines provided in this document are illustrated by command line examples
of the WS-MAN protocol Web services APIs that expose the remote management capabilities of the Dell
Lifecycle Controller. The command line examples are from the Microsoft® Windows® and Linux
environments using WinRM4 and WSMANCLI5 respectively. The Lifecycle Controller remote management
capabilities are organized by management domain and documented in Dell CIM Profile specifications2.
The remote enablement feature for Lifecycle Controller 2.0 provides the following capabilities:
Remotely get inventory of the BIOS, component firmware, and embedded software including
version information of both the installed as well as available cached versions
Remote update of BIOS, component firmware, Diagnostic content, DRAC content, driver pack,
power supplies from remotely located Dell Update Packages or cached images located in the
Lifecycle Controller
Remotely schedule and track the status of update tasks (jobs)
Remotely manage the Part Replacement feature by allowing retrieving and setting auto update
and auto system inventory sync
Enable re-initiation of Lifecycle Controller Auto-Discovery feature
Enhancement of Operation System Deployment capabilities by supporting the downloading of
an ISO image to a Dell VFlash SD Card and booting to the ISO image on the VFlash SD Card
NIC configuration enables the ability to get and set NIC attributes that are configurable using
NIC Option ROM or NIC UEFI HII.
Remote RAID configuration allows users to remotely query and configure the Hardware Raid of
the system
Multiple HW Inventory views allows users to remote query the inventory of Hardware
3.1 Format for WSMAN CLI Examples in Document
The examples of WinRM and WSMANCLI command line invocations in this document are formatted for
readability and often span multiple lines in the document. In actual use, scripted or hand-typed
invocations are contained on one line. The examples also use substitute values for the target iDRAC IP
address, username (with ExecuteServerCommand privilege), password and other site specific
information. Actual use of these examples would require using values for IP Address, username and
password, etc. that are valid. These values are represented in the examples as follows:
Target iDRAC IP address = $IPADDRESS
iDRAC Username = $USERNAME
iDRAC Password = $PASSWORD
Additional substitute values are used in some of the examples and are described in the specific
example.
The following example is typical of the formatting used in this document:
Dell™ Lifecycle Controller 2 Web Services Interface Guide for Linux Version: 2.1.0

EXAMPLE:
wsman enumerate http://schemas.dmtf.org/wbem/wscim/1/cim-
schema/2/root/dcim/DCIM_OSDeploymentService
-h $IPADDRESS -V -v -c dummy.cert -P 443
-u $USERNAME -p $PASSWORD
-j utf-8 -y basic
3.2 WS-Man Security & Time Parameters
3.2.1 Encryption Certificate Security
For the wsman examples provided in this document, the strict checks of certificates such as matching
of CNs (Common Names) and verification with the actual CA (Certificate Authority) of the certificate of
the WS-Management protocol HTTPS encryption certificate is assumed to be already configured and
enabled. To disable the strict certificate checking, add the following command line options to all
wsman examples: –v and –V.
Refer to the wsman documentation4 and related documentation for directions on setting up encryption
certificates for wsman and executing wsman invocations using full security capabilities. Refer to the
Lifecycle Controller User Guide1 for directions on configuring different encryption certificates for the
iDRAC Web server. Dell recommends that the full security and encryption capabilities of the WS-
Management protocol is used for production level utilization of the Lifecycle Controller Web services
interfaces.
3.2.2 Handling invalid responses from WSMAN commands
Check the network connection to make sure that the system is connected
Check the WSMAN syntax to ensure there are no typos in the command line
Check if there are other WSMAN commands sending from other systems
Wait for a few seconds and re-try the WSMAN command
3.2.3 Improving WSMAN Enumeration Performance
Enumeration configuration only available for winRM.
3.2.4 Specifying StartTime, Until Time, and TIME_NOW Parameters
The several methods that attach a virtual USB device to the target system accept a StartTime and Until
parameter. The parameter data type is CIM date-time. If the StartTime parameter is null the action
will not be started. If the Until parameter is null, the default value will be 17 hours. The date-time
data type is defined in the CIM Infrastructure Specification4 as:
ddddddddhhmmss.mmmmmm
Where:
Dell™ Lifecycle Controller 2 Web Services Interface Guide for Linux Version: 2.1.0
14
• dddddddd is the number of days
• hh is the remaining number of hours
• mm is the remaining number of minutes
• ss is the remaining number of seconds
• mmmmmm is the remaining number of microseconds
The Lifecycle controller 2.0 firmware update, and set attribute related methods that require a date
time parameter, use the form YYYYMMDDhhmmss (Eg. 20090930112030). The user is expected to enter
the date and time in this format for all Lifecycle Controller 2.0 updates and set attribute tasks.
TIME_NOW is a special value that represents “running the tasks immediately”.
3.2.5 Return Values
Many of the methods in this document have the following possible return values. They are summarized
here for convenience.
0 = Success
1 = Not Supported
2 = Failed
4096 = Job Created

The above example shows that the DMTF Base Server profile version 1.0.0 is implemented.
4.3 Discovering Implementation Namespace
The implementation CIM namespace may be discovered from the interop (root/interop) CIM namespace
using the class CIM_ElementConformsToProfile that associates an instance of CIM_RegisteredProfile
class with an instance of CIM_ComputerSystem class.
Profiles: n/a
EXAMPLE: (filtered for CIM_ComputerSystem)
wsman associators http://schemas.dmtf.org/wbem/wscim/1/*

5 Managing iDRAC Local User Accounts
5.1 Description of iDRAC Attributes vs Standard DMTF Model
The iDRAC user account management data model is represented by both DMTF and Dell Profiles. Both
models are currently offered. The DMTF Profiles for Simple Identity Management and Role Based
Authorization represent iDRAC user accounts and privileges. The DMTF data model is complex and
typically requires multiple transactions to accomplish simple operations such as specifying a username
and password or giving a user account admin privileges. For this reason, LC also offers a Dell data
model for managing iDRAC user accounts that is based on an attribute model. The DCIM iDRAC Card
Profile specifies the attributes for each user account name, password, and privilege. The iDRAC has 15
local user account that can be managed.
5.2 Account Inventory (using iDRAC Attributes)
The list of user accounts may be retrieved by enumerating the DCIM_iDRACCard classes. The class
provides the user account name and enabled state properties.

5.4.2 Privilege and Capabilities (using DMTF Model)
The account privilege assigned to a user is defined in the class CIM_Privilege associated with the
CIM_Account class. The class contains a list of privileges granted to the user account.
Profiles:
http://www.dmtf.org/sites/default/files/standards/documents/DSP1034_1.0.1.pdf
http://www.dmtf.org/sites/default/files/standards/documents/DSP1039_1.0.0.pdf
To get the instance of CIM_Privilege for an account:
1. Get the CIM_Account class instance of interest using EnumerateEPR mode.
2. Enumerate the associators of the CIM_Account instance and search for CIM_Identity class
instance using EnumerateEPR mode.
3. Enumerate the associators of the CIM_Identity instance and search for CIM_Role class instance
using EnumerateEPR mode.
4. Enumerate the associators of the CIM_Role instance and search for CIM_Privilege class instance.
An alternative to the above method, you can retrieve the specific CIM_Privilege instance by
enumerating the class directly with filter. This method is similar to the example used to retrieve
CIM_Account.

5.5 Manage Account Settings (using DMTF Model)
5.5.1 Modify User Name (using DMTF Model)
When the account setting capability allows, the user name of an account may be modified by issuing a
set operation on the UserID property of the CIM_Account class instance. The set operation requires an
instance reference. The instance reference may be retrieved by adding EnumerateEPR mode to
enumerate or get of the class.
Profiles:

Possible responses:
Dell™ Lifecycle Controller 2 Web Services Interface Guide for Linux Version: 2.1.0
37
1. A fault is returned which suggests a possible error in the request payload.
2. An empty response which suggests an error occurred while processing the request.
3. An instance of the class is returned where the property value is unchanged.
4. An instance of the class is returned where the property value is modified. The set is successful.
5. The property value may be blank as intended by the implementation for security. To determine
success, try logging in with the new password. Ensure the account is enabled.
5.5.2 Modify Password (using DMTF Model)
When the account setting capability allows, the user password of an account may be modified by
issuing a set operation on the UserPassword property of the CIM_Account class instance. The set
operation requires an instance reference. The instance reference may be retrieved by adding
EnumerateEPR mode to enumerate or get of the class.
NOTE: The profile defines this property as string array of type octet string. In this implementation, the
password is a string of type clear text. The security concern is resolved by transmission of this
information only through secure HTTPS communication.

http://www.dmtf.org/sites/default/files/standards/documents/DSP1039_1.0.0.pdf
See Section 5.5.1 for an implementation example.
5.5.3 Modify Account State (using DMTF Model)
When the account setting capability allows, the user account may be enabled or disabled by invoking
the RequestStateChange() method of the CIM_Account class instance. The invoke operation requires
an instance reference. The instance reference may be retrieved by adding EnumerateEPR mode to
enumerate or get of the class.
Profiles:
http://www.dmtf.org/sites/default/files/standards/documents/DSP1034_1.0.1.pdf
http://www.dmtf.org/sites/default/files/standards/documents/DSP1039_1.0.0.pdf
Replace “DCIM User 16” with the applicable user name and “2” with the desired request state.
Invoke RequestStateChange() with the following parameters and syntax:
EXAMPLE:
wsman invoke -a RequestStateChange "http://schemas.dmtf.org/wbem/wscim/1/cim-
schema/2/DCIM_MFAAccount
Dell™ Lifecycle Controller 2 Web Services Interface Guide for Linux Version: 2.1.0

Name=DCIM User 16"
-h $IPADDRESS -V -v -c dummy.cert -P 443
-u $USERNAME -p $PASSWORD
-k RequestedState=2
-j utf-8 -y basic
OUTPUT:
<n1:RequestStateChange_OUTPUT>
<n1:Job xsi:nil="true"/>
<n1:ReturnValue>0</n1:ReturnValue>
</n1:RequestStateChange_OUTPUT>
Response status other than zero indicates failure and error message information may be provided.
5.5.4 Modify User Privilege (using DMTF Model)
When the account setting capability allows, the user account privileges may be modified by issuing a
set() operation on the ActivityQualifiers property of the CIM_Privilege class instance associated with
the CIM_Account class instance. The set() operation requires an instance reference. The instance
reference may be retrieved by adding EnumerateEPR mode to enumerate or get of the class.
The profile defines this property as string array containing all the privileges to be granted for the
account. Setting the list of privileges is a complete over-write of the previous setting. This restriction
is a limitation where the protocol does not define how to set a particular index in the list. The new list
will replace the previous list in its entirety.
Profiles:
http://www.dmtf.org/sites/default/files/standards/documents/DSP1034_1.0.1.pdf
http://www.dmtf.org/sites/default/files/standards/documents/DSP1039_1.0.0.pdf
Here is an example list of available privileges from an instance of the class
CIM_RoleBasedManagementCapabilities:
DCIM_LocalRoleBasedManagementCapabilities
ActivitiesSupported = 7, 7, 7, 7, 7, 7, 7, 7, 7
ActivityQualifiersSupported = Login to DRAC, Configure DRAC, Configure Users, Clear Logs, Execute
Server Control Commands, Access Console Redirection, Access Virtual Media, Test Alerts, Execute Di
agnostic Commands
Caption = null
Description = null
ElementName = Local Role Based Management Capabilities
InstanceID = DCIM:LocalRoleBasedManagementCapabilities

SharedPrivilegeSupported = false
Dell™ Lifecycle Controller 2 Web Services Interface Guide for Linux Version: 2.1.0
39
SupportedMethods = 8
The privilege property ActivityQualifiers is an array of type string. To set more than one privilege, you
need to provide the same key name more than once. The tool does not allow duplicate keys to be
entered through the command line. Instead, you need to perform two operations.
1. Get an instance of the CIM_Privilege class of interest.
2. Using the class instance, replace the property ActivityQualifiers with the new values.
3. Use the new instance XML as input to the set operation.
To determine if the new password has been successfully set, try logging in with the new password.
Ensure the account is enabled.
6 Firmware Inventory
6.1 Software Inventory Profile Specification
The Dell Common Information Model (CIM) class extensions for supporting remote firmware inventory
are defined in the Dell OS Software Update2 and related MOFs3. The diagrams representing the classes
that are implemented by the Lifecycle Controller 2.0 firmware can be found in Dell Software Inventory
Profile.
6.2 Remote Inventory Method Invocation – Get Software Inventory
The SoftwareIdentity class contains information for the BIOS and component firmware installed on the
target system as well as available firmware images cached in the Lifecycle Controller. The
enumeration of the SoftwareIdentity class returns a list of SoftwareIdentity objects with properties
such as firmware type and version.

8.3.2 Power State Management Method
The power control capabilities are also reported by the PowerStatesSupported property of the
CIM_PowerManagementCapabilities (PMC) class associated with the CIM_PowerManagementService
(PMS) class. Getting the instance of PMC is a two step process. First, enumerate the instance of PMS
with EPR. Second, enumerate the associated PMC class. When there is only one instance of PMC class as
in the case of iDRAC, the first step may be skipped and the PMC class may be enumerated directly.
Power State Management Profile:
http://www.dmtf.org/sites/default/files/standards/documents/DSP1027_2.0.0.pdf
EXAMPLE (iDRAC case):
wsman enumerate http://schemas.dmtf.org/wbem/wscim/1/cim-
schema/2/CIM_PowerManagementCapabilities
?__cimnamespace=root/dcim
-h $IPADDRESS -V -v -c dummy.cert -P 443
-u $USERNAME -p $PASSWORD
-j utf-8 -y basic
OUTPUT:
When the PowerStatesSupported property contains the value in the “PowerStatesSupported Value”
column, the PowerChangeCapabilities property shall contain the value specified in the
“PowerChangeCapabilities Value” column.

8.4 Power Control
8.4.1 Base Server Method
Changing the power state, such as cycling the power, is performed by invoking the
RequestStateChange() method of the CIM_ComputerSystem class instance. For iDRAC, there is one
instance for the main system and another for iDRAC. Use the main system instance. The method
requires you to specify the RequestedState argument. Refer to Section 8.3 to get the possible values
for this argument.
Base Server Profile:
http://www.dmtf.org/sites/default/files/standards/documents/DSP1004_1.0.1.pdf
EXAMPLE:
wsman invoke -a RequestStateChange http://schemas.dell.com/wbem/wscim/1/cim-
schema/2/DCIM_ComputerSystem
?CreationClassName=DCIM_ComputerSystem,Name=srv:system
-h $IPADDRESS -V -v -c dummy.cert -P 443
-u $USERNAME -p $PASSWORD
-j utf-8 -y basic -k RequestedState="2"
OUTPUT:
<n1:RequestStateChange_OUTPUT>
<n1:ReturnValue>0</n1:ReturnValue>
Dell™ Lifecycle Controller 2 Web Services Interface Guide for Linux Version: 2.1.0
59
</n1:RequestStateChange_OUTPUT>
Return values of zero indicate success, while others indicate failure and may include a corresponding
error message.
8.4.2 Power State Management Method
Changing the power state is performed by invoking the RequestPowerStateChange() method of the
DCIM_PowerManagementService (PMS) class instance. It is a three step process shown below:
1) Enumerate the DCIM_PowerManagementService with EPR
2) Enumerate the DCIM_ComputerSystem class and search for the Host instance
3) Use the EPR on steps 1) and 2) to invoke RequestPowerStateChange()

9 Hardware Inventory
The Dell Common Information Model (CIM) class extensions for supporting remote hardware inventories
are defined in the various Dell profiles and related MOFs3. The Hardware Inventory allows users to
remote query the inventory of hardware.
Each of the hardware inventory classes return the attribute LastSystemInventoryTime, which is when
the last time ‘collect system inventory on restart’ or CSIOR was run. See Section 12.1 for more details
on CSIOR. It is an important attribute as it shows how recently the inventory was updated.

10 Job Control Management
10.1 Description of Job Management
The Dell Common Information Model (CIM) class extensions for supporting update and attribute
configuration job control are defined in the Dell Job Control Profile2 and related MOF files3. The
diagrams representing the classes that are implemented by the Lifecycle Controller 1.5 firmware can
be found in Dell Job Control Profile as well.
Profile and Associated MOFs:
http://www.delltechcenter.com/page/DCIM.Library.Profile
10.2 Remote Job Control Examples
10.2.1 Setup Job Queue
The SetupJobQueue() method takes in an array of jobids and schedules them to run immediately or at
a later time. The jobids are acquired via enumerating DCIM_LifecycleJob as described in Section
10.2.3. When there is a Reboot Job, in a job array that contains multiple jobs, the system will reboot
the UEFI (Unified Extensible Firmware Interface) at the scheduled time.
Invoke SetupJobQueue() with the following parameters and syntax:
JobArray: The jobids are listed in the JobArray element. Multiple jobs are listed in the order of
job execution sequence. If a system is to reboot at the scheduled start time, a reboot job will
need to be added to the list. This reboot job has a prefix of RID_ for its jobid.
Note, scheduling a job that is already scheduled will result in an error message.
If there is no reboot job in the job array, the system will schedule the jobs for execution at the
specified start time. The jobs will not be executed until the system is rebooted by something other
than Lifecycle Controller. At the specified UntilTime, any jobs that have not been executed are failed
with an error indicating that the job was not executed in the specified maintenance window. For some
component updates such as Diagnostics, USC, and iDRAC firmware, a system reboot is not needed.
Dell™ Lifecycle Controller 2 Web Services Interface Guide for Linux Version: 2.1.0
75
EXAMPLE:
wsman invoke -a SetupJobQueue http://schemas.dmtf.org/wbem/wscim/1/cim-
schema/2/root/dcim/DCIM_JobService
?SystemCreationClassName=DCIM_ComputerSystem,
CreationClassName=DCIM_JobService,SystemName=Idrac,Name=JobService
-h $IPADDRESS -V -v -c dummy.cert -P 443
-u $USERNAME -p $PASSWORD -J SetupJobQueue.xml
-j utf-8 -y basic
The syntax for SetupJobQueue.xml is:
<p:SetupJobQueue_INPUT xmlns:p="http://schemas.dmtf.org/wbem/wscim/1/cim-
schema/2/root/dcim/DCIM_JobService">
<p:JobArray>JID_001249463339</p:JobArray>
<p:JobArray>RID_001265817718</p:JobArray>
<p:StartTimeInterval>TIME_NOW</p:StartTimeInterval>
<p:UntilTime>20100730121500</p:UntilTime>
</p:SetupJobQueue_INPUT>
Here the JobArray element shows a list of Jobids that are to be scheduled to run. TIME_NOW is a
special value that represents “running the tasks immediately”. The UntilTime value specifies the
“maintenance windows”. Once a task is not run after passing UntilTime, it should not be run again.
Upon successfully invocation of the SetupJobQueue() method, the aforementioned times will be listed
when enumerated in Section 10.2.3.
OUTPUT:
Returns 0 for success or non-zero for error with messageID and message description.
<n1:SetupJobQueue_OUTPUT>
<n1:ReturnValue>0</n1:ReturnValue>
</n1:SetupJobQueue_OUTPUT>
Entering an invalid jobid or XML syntax error can yield one of the following error messages:
<n1:SetupJobQueue_OUTPUT>
<n1:Message> Job Cannot be Scheduled </n1:Message>
<n1:MessageID>SUP016</n1:MessageID>
<n1:ReturnValue>2</n1:ReturnValue>
</n1:SetupJobQueue_OUTPUT>
<n1:SetupJobQueue_OUTPUT>
<n1:Message>Invalid Job Id </n1:Message>
<n1:MessageID>SUP011</n1:MessageID>
<n1:ReturnValue>2</n1:ReturnValue>
</n1:SetupJobQueue_OUTPUT>
Dell™ Lifecycle Controller 2 Web Services Interface Guide for Linux Version: 2.1.0
76
10.2.2 Delete Job Queue
The DeleteJobQueue() method takes in a jobID and then deletes it from the job store.
Note: When clearing all jobs and pending data using the keyword JID_CLEARALL, as shown in example
2 below, the remote services instrumentation is restarted to clear the cache [LC 1.5.x ONLY]. Users
should allow two minutes for this process to complete.
Invoke DeleteJobQueue() with the following parameters and syntax:
[JobID]: The jobID of a particular job instance to be deleted from a jobqueue
EXAMPLE 1:
wsman invoke -a DeleteJobQueue http://schemas.dmtf.org/wbem/wscim/1/cim-
schema/2/root/dcim/DCIM_JobService
?SystemCreationClassName=DCIM_ComputerSystem,
CreationClassName=DCIM_JobService,SystemName=Idrac,Name=JobService
-h $IPADDRESS -V -v -c dummy.cert -P 443
-u $USERNAME -p $PASSWORD -k JobID="JobID"
-j utf-8 -y basic
The example below uses JID_CLEARALL for the jobID, which is a predefined value that represents
“deleting all jobs in the jobstore”.
EXAMPLE 2:
wsman invoke -a DeleteJobQueue http://schemas.dmtf.org/wbem/wscim/1/cim-
schema/2/root/dcim/DCIM_JobService
?SystemCreationClassName=DCIM_ComputerSystem,
CreationClassName=DCIM_JobService,SystemName=Idrac,Name=JobService
-h $IPADDRESS -V -v -c dummy.cert -P 443
-u $USERNAME -p $PASSWORD -k JobID="JID_CLEARALL"
-j utf-8 -y basic
OUTPUT:
Return 0 for success or non-zero for error with messageID and message description.
<n1:DeleteJobQueue_OUTPUT>
<n1:Message>The specified job was deleted</n1:Message>
<n1:MessageID>SUP020</n1:MessageID>
<n1:ReturnValue>0</n1:ReturnValue>
</n1:DeleteJobQueue_OUTPUT>
An XML syntax error could yield the following message:
Syntax Error: input must be of the form
Dell™ Lifecycle Controller 2 Web Services Interface Guide for Linux Version: 2.1.0
77
{KEY="VALUE"[;KEY="VALUE"]}
10.2.3 List Jobs in Job Store
The instances of this class will enumerate jobs in the job store along with status information.
Invoke enumerate job status with the following parameters and syntax:
[JobID]: The JobID of a particular job instance to be queried
To get the status of one particular job, use the following:
EXAMPLE 1:
wsman get http://schemas.dmtf.org/wbem/wscim/1/cim-schema/2/root/dcim/DCIM_LifecycleJob
?InstanceID=JobID -h $IPADDRESS -V -v -c dummy.cert -P 443
-u $USERNAME -p $PASSWORD -j utf-8 -y basic
To get the status of all jobs, use the following:
EXAMPLE 2:
wsman enumerate http://schemas.dmtf.org/wbem/wscim/1/cim-
schema/2/root/dcim/DCIM_LifecycleJob
-h $IPADDRESS -V -v -c dummy.cert -P 443
-u $USERNAME -p $PASSWORD
-j utf-8 -y basic
OUTPUT 1 & 2:
The method either returns a list of Concrete job objects or an error message. Once job instanceID
are returned via these status queries, they can be used for job scheduling and setup. Several examples
of job objects are shown below.

A missing command line character, such as a “-“, could result in the following error:
Connection failed. response code = 0
Couldn't connect to server
11.3.5 Check Job Status
The following methodology is used to determine the status of the jobs generated by the invocation of
the UnpackAndAttach() and UnpackAndShare() methods. The methodology involves enumerating the
DCIM_OSDConcreteJob instances, and checking the JobStatus property value.
When the jobs are complete, the JobStatus property value will be “Successful” if the job completed
successfully or “Failed” if an error occurred while executing the request. If the job failed, the Message
property on the returned DCIM_OSDConcreteJob instance will contain more detailed error information
on the cause of the failure.
For the Lifecycle Controller 1.5 version of the OS Deployment Profile there is only one instance of a job
generated by various method invocations, and it will persist until the next method that generates a job
is invoked. The job must complete before another method that generates a job can be called
successfully. This is unchanged from the Lifecycle Controller 1.2 for OS Deployment.
Invoke enumerate DCIM_OSDConcreteJob instance with the following syntax:
EXAMPLE:
wsman enumerate http://schemas.dmtf.org/wbem/wscim/1/cim-
schema/2/root/dcim/DCIM_OSDConcreteJob
-h $IPADDRESS -V -v -c dummy.cert -P 443
-u $USERNAME -p $PASSWORD
-j utf-8 -y basic
OUTPUT:
The enumeration will return the instances of OSDConcreteJob as shown:

12 Lifecycle Controller Management Profile
The LC Management Profile describes the LC attribute configuration service and the collections and
attributes instances that the service manages. The profile also describes the relationship of the LC
attribute service to the DMTF/Dell profile version information and Dell Job Control profile.
The Dell Common Information Model (CIM) class extensions for supporting Lifecycle Controller feature
management are defined in the Dell LC Management2 and related MOF files3. The diagrams representing
the classes that are implemented by the Lifecycle Controller 2.0 firmware can be found in Dell LC
Management Profile.
Profile and Associated MOFs:
http://www.delltechcenter.com/page/DCIM.Library.Profile
12.1 Collect System Inventory on Restart (CSIOR)
By default, ‘collect system inventory on restart’ is disabled. To enable this feature, utilize the
SetAttribute() method in the following example.
Dell™ Lifecycle Controller 2 Web Services Interface Guide for Linux Version: 2.1.0
102
NOTE: To query the system to determine when the last CSIOR event occurred, list system inventory
and examine the LastSystemInventoryTime attribute.
The Collect System Inventory on Restart attribute flags whether the system should do an automatic
inventory or not. To get the current status of this attribute, see Section 12.3. The values can be:
Disabled (default) = Disallow collecting inventory on restart
Enabled = Allow collecting system inventory on restart
The Part Firmware Update attribute flags whether the Part Replacement automatic firmware update
performed. The values can be:
Disable (default) = firmware update is not allowed
Allow version upgrade only = Allow firmware update only on up-revision
Match firmware of replaced part = Always update firmware
The example below configures the Part Replacement feature to allow upgrade only and for the
automatic synchronization to be on.

15.10 Setting the IscsiOffloadMode Attribute
The SetAttribute() method is used to set or change the value of a CNA attribute. Enable the NICMode,
IscsiOffloadMode, and FcoeOffloadMode personality attributes to enable the corresponding
personalities: NIC, ISCSI, and FCOE.
For Broadcom CNA cards, the partitions on each port can be set to any personality. NICMode can always
be enabled or disabled for any of the given partitions. For the IscsiOffloadMode and FcoeOffloadMode
personalities, up to two personalities can be enabled on each port.
For the Qlogic CNA cards, partition three can be set to either NICMode or IscsiOffloadMode. Partition
four can be set to either NICMode or FcoeOffloadMode.
Invoke the SetAttribute() method with the following parameters (from Section 15.1) and syntax:
Target: FQDD attained through DCIM_NICEnumeration
AttributeName: Attained from AttributeName field
AttributeValue: A new value to assign to the specified NICAttribute. If this value is valid, it is
applied to the PendingValue property or the Currentvalue property of the specified
NICAttribute. Possible choices are attained from PossibleValues field, such as:
Possible values: Disabled, Enabled
EXAMPLE:
wsman invoke -a SetAttribute http://schemas.dmtf.org/wbem/wscim/1/cim-
schema/2/root/dcim/DCIM_NICService
?SystemCreationClassName=DCIM_ComputerSystem,

</n1:SetAttribute_OUTPUT>
15.11 Setting the MaxBandwidth Attribute
The SetAttribute() method is used to set or change the value of a CNA attribute.
The MinBandwidth and MaxBandwidth attributes control the bandwidth allocations for a given CNA
partition. The values are displayed in percentage.
For Broadcom CNA cards, the MinBandwidth attribute values for a given port must always add up to
either 0 or 100. MaxBandwidth is a value of 100 or less for any given partition.
For the Qlogic CNA cards, the MinBandwidth attribute values for a given port must add up to 100 or
less. MaxBandwidth again is a value of 100 or less for any given partition.
Invoke SetAttribute() with the following parameters(from Section 15.1) and syntax:
Target: FQDD attained through DCIM_NICInteger
AttributeName: Attained from AttributeName field
AttributeValue: A new value to assign to the specified NICAttribute. If this value is valid, it is
applied to the PendingValue property or the Currentvalue property of the specified
NICAttribute. Range of choices is attained from the LowerBound and UpperBound fields:
LowerBound = 0
UpperBound = 100

15.12 Setting the VirtMacAddr Attribute
The SetAttribute() method is used to set or change the value of a CNA attribute. The I/O identity
string attributes: (VirtMacAddr, VirtIscsiMacAddr, VirtFIPMacAddr, VirtWWN, and VirtWWPN) display a
unique behavior. After setting them to a non-default value, the attribute values are retained until
there is AC power supply. If the AC power supply is disconnected, the attributes revert to their default
values.
Invoke the SetAttribute() method with the following parameters and syntax:
Target: FQDD attained through DCIM_NICString
AttributeName: Attained from AttributeName field
AttributeValue: A new value to assign to the specified NICAttribute. If this value is valid, it is
applied to the PendingValue property or the Currentvalue property of the specified
NICAttribute. The range of acceptable strings is present in the MinLength and MaxLength
fields.

15.13 Setting the LegacyBootProto Attribute
The SetAttribute() method is used to set or change the value of a NIC attribute.
WARNING: The local BIOS setting always overwrites the LegacyBootProto option. This option is only
applied in the BIOS setup. By setting this attribute remotely, it appears that the value is set, but it
really did not because the local BIOS setting overrides it. Running a ‘get’ on the attribute remotely
displays a different current value.
Invoke SetAttribute() with the following parameters(from Section 15.1) and syntax:
Target: FQDD attained through DCIM_NICEnumeration
AttributeName: Attained from AttributeName field
AttributeValue: A new value to assign to the specified NICAttribute. If this value is valid, it
will be applied to the PendingValue property or the Currentvalue property of the specified
NICAttribute. Possible choices are attained from PossibleValues field, such as:
Possible values: PXE, iSCSI, NONE

16 RAID Storage Management
The remote RAID configuration allows users to remotely query and configure the Hardware RAID of the
system. The RAID profile extends the management capabilities of referencing profiles by adding the
capability to represent the configuration of RAID storage. The RAID storage is modeled as collections of
attributes where there are collections for the storage adaptors, physical disks, logical disks, end
enclosures and parent-child relationships between the collections. Additionally, there is a
configuration service that contains all the methods used to configure the RAID storage.
Profile and Associated MOFs:
http://www.delltechcenter.com/page/DCIM.Library.Profile
The RAID Inventory contains the following attributes:
DCIM_RAIDEnumeration (16.1)
DCIM_RAIDInteger (16.3)
DCIM_RAIDString (16.5)
DCIM_ControllerView (16.7)
DCIM_PhysicalDiskView (16.9)

16.18.5 Creating a Sliced Virtual Disk-CreateVirtualDisk()
The CreateVirtualDisk() method is used to create a sliced virtual disk. A sliced virtual disk is created,
if CreateVirtualDisk() Size input parameter value is less than total size of the physical disks. Additional
sliced virtual disk can be created using the same set of physical disks and same RAID level that was
used to create the first sliced virtual disk. If the physical disks have sliced virtual disks, then use the
CheckVDValues() method on that set of physical disks to find the exact value for StartingLBA. Use this
value as the StartingLBA parameter value of the CreateVirtualDisk() method.
The ObjectStatus property in the virtual disk view (see Section 16.10) has the value ‘3’, which
represents a pending change. The virtual disk is not created until a configuration job (see Section
16.14) is scheduled and the system is rebooted. After the virtual disk creation, the FQDD of the
pending virtual disk changes.
Invoke the CreateVirtualDisk() method with the following parameters and syntax:

configuration that is stored in a backup image file. Use Restore at anytime to put the system to pre-
backup state.
Profile and Associated MOFs:
http://www.delltechcenter.com/page/DCIM.Library.Profile
18.1 Exporting Server Profile
To backup host system server profile, invoke the BackupImage() method in the class DCIM_LCService.
Backup feature gathers system information, firmware images, hardware configuration, Lifecycle
Controller, iDRAC firmware, and configuration and stores the information in a file. You can save the
file on either iDRAC vFlash SD card or network share.
[IP ADDRESS]: This is the IP address of the file server.
[DRIVESHARE]: This is the directory path for the image.
[USERNAME]: This is the username to the file share.
[PASSWORD]: This is the password to the file share.
[IMAGENAME]: This is the desired name of the image.
[PASSPHRASE]: This can be used to password protect NFS and CIFS images.
For NFS and CIFS shares, the entire “Passphrase="[PASSPHRASE]";” argument is optional. Note:
To restore this backup file, the same passphrase must passed as an argument for the operation to
be successful.
The following examples back up the server profile and execute it immediately, using the TIME_NOW
parameter.

19.9 Changing the iDRAC IPChange Notification
19.9.1 Getting the Current iDRAC IPChange State
Get the IPChangeNotifyPS attribute from the DCIM_LCAttribute class to display. The CurrentValue field
indicates the current status of this attribute.
EXAMPLE:
wsman get http://schemas.dmtf.org/wbem/wscim/1/cim-schema/2/root/dcim/DCIM_LCAttribute
?InstanceID=DCIM_LCEnumeration:DHS3
-h $IPADDRESS -V -v -c dummy.cert -P 443
-u $USERNAME -p $PASSWORD -j utf-8 -y basic
OUTPUT:
<n1:DCIM_LCAttribute>
<n1:AttributeName>IPChangeNotifyPS</n1:AttributeName>
<n1:Caption xsi:nil="true"/>
<n1:CurrentValue>Off</n1:CurrentValue>
<n1:DefaultValue>Off</n1:DefaultValue>
<n1:Description xsi:nil="true"/>
<n1:ElementName>LC.emb.1</n1:ElementName>
<n1:InstanceID>DCIM_LCEnumeration:DHS3</n1:InstanceID>
<n1:IsOrderedList xsi:nil="true"/>
<n1:IsReadOnly>true</n1:IsReadOnly>
<n1:PendingValue xsi:nil="true"/>
<n1:PossibleValues>On</n1:PossibleValues>
<n1:PossibleValues>Off</n1:PossibleValues>
<n1:PossibleValuesDescription xsi:nil="true"/>
</n1:DCIM_LCAttribute>
19.9.2 Setting the iDRAC IPChange Notification-SetAttribute()
The SetAttribute() method is used to set the attribute IPChangeNotifyPS to “ON” or “OFF”. When set
to “ON”, a user notification is sent when the IP address is changed. While set to “OFF”, a user
notification is not sent.
Invoke SetAttribute() with the following syntax:
EXAMPLE:
wsman invoke -a SetAttribute http://schemas.dmtf.org/wbem/wscim/1/cim-
schema/2/root/dcim/DCIM_LCService
?SystemCreationClassName=DCIM_ComputerSystem,
CreationClassName=DCIM_LCService,SystemName=DCIM:ComputerSystem,
Dell™ Lifecycle Controller 2 Web Services Interface Guide for Linux Version: 2.1.0
238
Name=DCIM:LCService -h $IPADDRESS -V -v -c dummy.cert -P 443
–u $USERNAME -p $PASSWORD
-J SetAttribute_iDRAC_IPChange_Notification.xml -j utf-8 -y basic
The input file setattribute.xml is shown below:
<p:SetAttribute_INPUT xmlns:p="http://schemas.dmtf.org/wbem/wscim/1/cim-
schema/2/root/dcim/DCIM_LCService">
<p:AttributeName>IPChangeNotifyPS</p:AttributeName>
<p:AttributeValue>on</p:AttributeValue>
</p:SetAttribute_INPUT>
OUTPUT:
<n1:SetAttribute_OUTPUT>
<n1:RebootRequired>No</n1:RebootRequired>
<n1:ReturnValue>0</n1:ReturnValue>
<n1:SetResult>Set CurrentValue</n1:SetResult>
</n1:SetAttribute_OUTPUT>
To verify the changes after setattribute was executed, list the LC attributes as shown in Section
19.8.1.
20 Remote Service Status
To get the remote service status, invoke the GetRemoteServicesAPIStatus () method in the class
DCIM_LCService. This method is used to obtain the overall remote services API status that includes both
the host system status as well as the Lifecycle Controller (Data Manager included) status. The overall
rolled up status shall be reflected in the Status output parameter.
NOTE: The LCStatus output parameter value includes the status reported by the DMStatus output
parameter in the GetRSStatus() method. Thus, GetRSStatus() method invocation is redundant..

23.7 Applying the Pending Values for FC-CreateTargetedConfigJob()
This method is called to apply the pending values created by the SetAttribute() and SetAttributes()
methods. The system will automatically reboot depending on the ScheduledStartTime selected. Using
the CreateTargetedConfigJob() jobID output with the job control section can be used to obtain its
status.
Invoke CreateTargetedConfigJob() with the following parameters and syntax:
TARGET: This Parameter is the FQDD of the instances, obtained from the InstanceID field
RebootJobType: There are three options for rebooting the system.
1 = PowerCycle
2 = Graceful Reboot without forced shutdown
3 = Graceful reboot with forced shutdown
Note: When a user does not want to set a reboot type when creating a target job,
users should comment out the RebootJobType in the input xml. User should not enter
“0” or give no parameter at all in the input xml.

23.8 Deleting the Pending Values for FC-DeletePendingConfiguration()
This method is called to cancel the pending values created by the SetAttribute() and SetAttributes()
methods. The DeletePendingConfiguration() method cancels the pending configuration changes made
before the configuration job is created with CreateTargetedConfigJob(). This method only operates on
the pending changes prior to CreateTargetedConfigJob() being called. After the configuration job is

created, the pending changes can only be canceled by calling DeleteJobQueue() in the Job Control
profile.
Invoke DeletePendingConfiguration() with the following parameters and syntax:
Target: This parameter is the FQDD of the instances
