Re: Bios editing from command line

I am not too sure about openmanage. But you can do some things via ipmi. 
Here is a code segment I use in a script to set the BIOS to reboot via PXE:


modprobe ipmi_devintf
     modprobe ipmi_si
     ipmitool chassis bootdev pxe



We have a cluster of Poweredge R430 machines we use for research and I 
can reinstall the operating system on them by wiping the disk and 
running the above commands. Then it boots into an install that uses a 
kickstart file.


My understanding is that even under the best of circumstances, ipmi is 
rather limited and this was part of the motivation for the invention of 
EUFI.
