class CIM_BootService
extends CIM_Service

General Information:
A class derived from Service that provides the controls to manage the boot configuration of a managed computer system or device. This includes changing the order of the boot devices and affecting settings on managed elements during the boot process. This service can also affect the load of a specific operating system on the computer system through a BootSourceSetting that points to a specific operating system image.

ElementName

public string ElementName
General Information:
A user-friendly name for the object. This property allows each instance to define a user-friendly name in addition to its key properties, identity data, and description information.
Note that the Name property of ManagedSystemElement is also defined as a user-friendly name. But, it is often subclassed to be a Key. It is not reasonable that the same property can convey both identity and a user-friendly name, without inconsistencies. Where Name exists and is not a Key (such as for instances of LogicalDevice), the same information can be present in both the Name and ElementName properties. Note that if there is an associated instance of CIM_EnabledLogicalElementCapabilities, restrictions on this properties may exist as defined in ElementNameMask and MaxElementNameLen properties defined in that class.

Product Specific Usage:
In Intel AMT Release 6.0 and later releases value is "Intel(r) AMT Boot Service"

OperationalStatus

public uint16[] OperationalStatus
General Information:
Indicates the current statuses of the element. Various operational statuses are defined. Many of the enumeration's values are self-explanatory. However, a few are not and are described here in more detail.
"Stressed" indicates that the element is functioning, but needs attention. Examples of "Stressed" states are overload, overheated, and so on.
"Predictive Failure" indicates that an element is functioning nominally but predicting a failure in the near future.
"In Service" describes an element being configured, maintained, cleaned, or otherwise administered.
"No Contact" indicates that the monitoring system has knowledge of this element, but has never been able to establish communications with it.
"Lost Communication" indicates that the ManagedSystem Element is known to exist and has been contacted successfully in the past, but is currently unreachable.
"Stopped" and "Aborted" are similar, although the former implies a clean and orderly stop, while the latter implies an abrupt stop where the state and configuration of the element might need to be updated.
"Dormant" indicates that the element is inactive or quiesced.
"Supporting Entity in Error" indicates that this element might be "OK" but that another element, on which it is dependent, is in error. An example is a network service or endpoint that cannot function due to lower-layer networking problems.
"Completed" indicates that the element has completed its operation. This value should be combined with either OK, Error, or Degraded so that a client can tell if the complete operation Completed with OK (passed), Completed with Error (failed), or Completed with Degraded (the operation finished, but it did not complete OK or did not report an error).
"Power Mode" indicates that the element has additional power model information contained in the Associated PowerManagementService association.
"Relocating" indicates the element is being relocated.
OperationalStatus replaces the Status property on ManagedSystemElement to provide a consistent approach to enumerations, to address implementation needs for an array property, and to provide a migration path from today's environment to the future. This change was not made earlier because it required the deprecated qualifier. Due to the widespread use of the existing Status property in management applications, it is strongly recommended that providers or instrumentation provide both the Status and OperationalStatus properties. Further, the first value of OperationalStatus should contain the primary status for the element. When instrumented, Status (because it is single-valued) should also provide the primary status of the element.

EnabledState

public uint16 EnabledState
General Information:
EnabledState is an integer enumeration that indicates the enabled and disabled states of an element. It can also indicate the transitions between these requested states. For example, shutting down (value=4) and starting (value=10) are transient states between enabled and disabled. The following text briefly summarizes the various enabled and disabled states:
Enabled (2) indicates that the element is or could be executing commands, will process any queued commands, and queues new requests.
Disabled (3) indicates that the element will not execute commands and will drop any new requests.
Shutting Down (4) indicates that the element is in the process of going to a Disabled state.
Not Applicable (5) indicates the element does not support being enabled or disabled.
Enabled but Offline (6) indicates that the element might be completing commands, and will drop any new requests.
Test (7) indicates that the element is in a test state.
Deferred (8) indicates that the element might be completing commands, but will queue any new requests.
Quiesce (9) indicates that the element is enabled but in a restricted mode.
Starting (10) indicates that the element is in the process of going to an Enabled state. New requests are queued.
Values of 32768 and 32769 (relevant from Intel CSME 15 onwards) indicate whether the Intel® One-Click Recovery feature is enabled (32769) or disabled (32768). In Intel CSME 16 onwards, 32768 and 32769 have additional meaning, and 32771 and 32770 indicate whether Intel RPE is enabled or disabled. See Qualifiers below for details.
Default: 32769 (Intel One-Click Recovery enabled, Intel RPE is disabled, and all other boot options are enabled. Note that Intel RPE is relevant from Intel CSME 16 onwards.)

ModelCorrespondence={CIM_EnabledLogicalElement.OtherEnabledState}


RequestedState

public uint16 RequestedState
General Information:
RequestedState is an integer enumeration that indicates the last requested or desired state for the element, irrespective of the mechanism through which it was requested. The actual state of the element is represented by EnabledState. This property is provided to compare the last requested and current enabled or disabled states. Note that when EnabledState is set to 5 ("Not Applicable"), then this property has no meaning. Refer to the EnabledState property description for explanations of the values in the RequestedState enumeration.
"Unknown" (0) indicates the last requested state for the element is unknown.
Note that the value "No Change" (5) has been deprecated in lieu of indicating the last requested state is "Unknown" (0). If the last requested or desired state is unknown, RequestedState should have the value "Unknown" (0), but may have the value "No Change" (5).Offline (6) indicates that the element has been requested to transition to the Enabled but Offline EnabledState.
It should be noted that there are two new values in RequestedState that build on the statuses of EnabledState. These are "Reboot" (10) and "Reset" (11). Reboot refers to doing a "Shut Down" and then moving to an "Enabled" state. Reset indicates that the element is first "Disabled" and then "Enabled". The distinction between requesting "Shut Down" and "Disabled" should also be noted. Shut Down requests an orderly transition to the Disabled state, and might involve removing power, to completely erase any existing state. The Disabled state requests an immediate disabling of the element, such that it will not execute or accept any commands or processing requests.

This property is set as the result of a method invocation (such as Start or StopService on CIM_Service), or can be overridden and defined as WRITEable in a subclass. The method approach is considered superior to a WRITEable property, because it allows an explicit invocation of the operation and the return of a result code.

If knowledge of the last RequestedState is not supported for the EnabledLogicalElement, the property shall be NULL or have the value 12 "Not Applicable".
Values of 32768 and 32769 (relevant from Intel CSME 15 onwards) indicate whether the Intel® One-Click Recovery feature is enabled (32769) or disabled (32768). In Intel CSME 16 onwards, 32768 and 32769 have additional meaning, and 32771 and 32770 indicate whether Intel RPE is enabled or disabled. See Qualifiers below for details.
Default: 32769 (Intel One-Click Recovery enabled, Intel RPE is disabled, and all other boot options are enabled. Note that Intel RPE is relevant from Intel CSME 16 onwards.)

Method Detail

SetBootConfigRole

public uint32 SetBootConfigRole([IN]REF CIM_BootConfigSetting BootConfigSetting, [IN]uint16 Role, [OUT]REF CIM_ConcreteJob Job)
Permission Information:
Permitted realms: ADMIN_SECURITY_REMOTE_CONTROL_REALM, ADMIN_SECURITY_LOCAL_SYSTEM_REALM

General Information:
This method is called to set the role of the BootConfigSetting that is directly or indirectly associated to one or more ComputerSystems. The method applies the new role equally to all related ComputerSystems. If a BootConfigSetting can be related to more than one ComputerSystem, but role modification applies to just one of them, the SetBootConfigUsage method shall be used instead.
The method shall update the IsNext or IsDefault property of every ElementSettingData that directly or indirectly associates BootConfigSetting to a ComputerSystem. The method may also update the IsNext or IsDefault property of other ElementSettingDatas that reference the same ComputerSystems to satisfy cardinality constraints.

Product Specific Usage:
Additional Notes:
1) This method activates the boot setting (which are set in the AMT_BootSettingData class) after the next graceful shutdown or power-change command (using the CIM_PowerManagementService class). The Role parameter must be set to 1 (IsNextSingleUse).
2) Parameter 'Role' can be set to '32768' to select 'IsNotNext' option.
3) The EPR of the CIM_BootConfigSetting instance of interest should be used as the first parameter.
4) Returns WSMAN Fault = “access denied” if user consent is required but IPS_OptInService.OptInState value is not 'Received' or 'In Session'.
There is an exception to this rule - A fault will not be generated in the following cases:
1. Case 1:
a. IN BootConfigSetting references the Intel AMT “legacy” CIM_BootConfigSetting instance.
(InstanceID equals "Intel(r) AMT: Boot Configuration 0").
b. IN Role= IsNextSingleUse (1)
c. No changes were made to the default boot settings that require user consent at the time of call. See AMT_BootSettingData.Put() and CIM_BootConfigSetting.ChangeBootOrder().
2. Case 2:
a. IN BootConfigSetting references the Intel AMT “legacy” CIM_BootConfigSetting instance.
(InstanceID equals "Intel(r) AMT: Boot Configuration 0").
b. IN Role= IsNotNext (32768).
This behavior is deprecated and new SW should avoid calling the setBootConfigRole in case User consent is required but not yet granted.

RequestStateChange

public uint32 RequestStateChange([IN]uint16 RequestedState, [OUT]REF CIM_ConcreteJob Job, [IN]datetime TimeoutPeriod)
Permission Information:
Permitted realms: ADMIN_SECURITY_ADMINISTRATION_REALM

General Information:
Requests that the state of the element be changed to the value specified in the RequestedState parameter. When the requested state change takes place, the EnabledState and RequestedState of the element will be the same. Invoking the RequestStateChange method multiple times could result in earlier requests being overwritten or lost.
If 0 is returned, then the task completed successfully and the use of ConcreteJob was not required. If 4096 (0x1000) is returned, then the task will take some time to complete, ConcreteJob will be created, and its reference returned in the output parameter Job. Any other return code indicates an error condition.

Product Specific Usage:
Additional Notes:
1) 'datetime' format is as defined in DSP0230 'DMTF WS-CIM Mapping Specification'.
2) Intel AMT does not support the TimeoutPeriod parameter (only value 0 is valid). The state change is performed immediately, before the call is returned.
3) In Intel CSME 15 the supported values in RequestedState are 32768-32769. In Intel CSME 16, 32770 and 32771 are also supported.
