MX7000 Template changing bios setting
Hello ,
I try to change settings for the BIOS in a template, when I change the template there is an exclamation point that the template has indeed changed and then I perform a re deploy and the server does boot and does not get the changes in the BIOS I wanted to make .
I need help ASAP.

Hello Avi.k,
A restart is different than a reseat. You can physically power down and reseat or do it virtually
Overview > Troubleshoot > Reset Management Module - option is more commonly known as the Virtual Reseat option

Avi.k,
Would you verify if the firmware is up to date? The reason I ask is that the firmware can make a difference. If you aren't running on the later versions, you have to perform a virtual reseat of the blade in order for the changes to take affect.
Let me know.

As far as the Virtual Reseat, you can find the steps on page 64 here.
Regarding if you can do it from OME, we would need to know the specifics of the setting you are trying to change, in order to confirm.

trying to change in the BIOS the following parameters :
system profile to custom
cpu power management to OS DBPM
Memory Frequency to maximum performance
I dont see any clue to how to do the virtual reseat , could you guide me how to do it ?
the virtual reseat is it just to a specific server ?
