Enable/Disable the KVM Interface

The following steps describe how to enable or disable the KVM interface.

1. Retrieve the instance of IPS_KVMRedirectionSettingData, where the “InstanceID” key equals “Intel(r) KVM Redirection Settings”.

2. Validate that IPS_KVMRedirectionSettingData.EnabledByMEBx is true. If it is, continue to the next step.

You can execute this snippet by inserting it into the execution template found here.

$kvmRedirectionSettingDataRef =$wsmanConnectionObject.NewReference("SELECT * FROM IPS_KVMRedirectionSettingData WHERE InstanceID='Intel(r) KVM Redirection Settings'")

$kvmRedirectionSettingDataInstance =$kvmRedirectionSettingDataRef.Get()

$enabledByMEBx =$kvmRedirectionSettingDataInstance.GetProperty("EnabledByMEBx")

3. Retrieve the instance of CIM_KVMRedirectionSAP, where the “Name” key equals “KVM Redirection Service Access Point”.

4. Invoke CIM_KVMRedirectionSAP.RequestStateChange.
