GetDmiInfo

Description

Use the "GetDmiInfo" command to execute SUM to get the current supported editable DMI information from the managed system and save it in the DMI.txt file.

Notes

  • This DMI file is synchronized to BMC from BIOS when the system reboots or powers up.
  • If the customer has flashed a BMC firmware image, this function will not work until the managed system is first rebooted or powered up.
  • The supported editable DMI items could vary from BIOS to BIOS. SUM will only show supported items.

Syntax

OOB and In-Band

sum [-i <IP or host name> -u <username> -p <password>] -c GetDmiInfo --file <DMI.txt> [--overwrite]

Remote In-Band

sum -I Remote_INB --oi <OS IP address> --ou <OS username> [--op <OS password> | --os_key <OS private key> --os_key_pw <OS private key password>] -c GetDmiInfo --file <DMI.txt> [--overwrite] [--remote_sum <remote sum path>]

Options

  • --file <DMI.txt>: Specifies the file to save the DMI information.
  • --overwrite: Overwrites the output file if it exists.
  • --remote_sum <remote sum path>: Specifies the path to the remote SUM executable (for Remote In-Band).
