Software to Change BIOS Settings?

[Keith W]

Is there a software utility which will allow me to change the BIOS settings of my Proliant servers (various ML and DL) without having to shut down and go into the BIOS screen?

Hi,

Reading your other thread, I assume you want to be able to change the Auto-Power on feature of the server without rebooting and going into BIOS.
If you have the Integrated Lights-Out with Advanced license, you can set this option under "Virtual Power".

Regards,

We have ILO on some servers but not others, so I will try this.

I don't mind rebooting, but the best tim eto do this is late evening, so I though if I could change the BIOS settings via GUI during the day, I could then reboot remotely in the evening and the users would notice no downtime.
