Unable to set PowerProfile with RedFish

[fla_torres]

Hi,

I’m trying to update the HP Power Profile thru Redfish API, although the documentation page says it is possible I’m unable to see those attributes:

http://h22208.www2.hpe.com/eginfolib/servers/docs/HPRestfultool/iLo4/data_model_reference.html#ResourceMap

curl -k -u user:$PASS IP/redfish/v1/Systems/1/Bios/

{

    "@odata.context": "/redfish/v1/$metadata#Systems/Members/1/Bios$entity",

    "@odata.id": "/redfish/v1/Systems/1/Bios/",

    "@odata.type": "#HpBios.1.0.0.HpBios",

    "AutoPowerOn": "RestoreLastState",

    "Id": "Bios",

    "Name": "BIOS",

    "PowerOnDelay": "None",

    "PowerRegulator": "StaticHighPerf",

    "SwapROM": false,

    "TpmOpromMeasuring": "Disabled",

    "TpmState": "NotPresent",

    "Type": "HpBios.1.0.0",

    "links": {

        "self": {

            "href": "/redfish/v1/Systems/1/Bios/"

        }

    }

}

I need to change the HP Power Profile (which is set to Custom) to “Maximum Performance”. But I can't see this property in there. (/Bios/Settings path is not available)

When trying to PATCH, I’m getting this error: Base.0.10.PropertyUnknown

curl -k -D- -u user:$PASS -X PATCH --data @payload_template_bios.json -H "Content-Type: application/json" https://IP/redfish/v1/Systems/1/Bios/

Payload:

{

                "PowerProfile": "MaxPerf"

}

According to the document page, it should be there. Can anyone put some light ?

My environment is:

ProLiant SL4540 Gen8

iLO 4, 2.55

Thank you!

I noticed that this option is not available on Gen8 servers, is there any way to change this value on Gen8 Servers (without login into the BIOS - we got couple of servers to do that) ?
