  • 1.  remotely changing HP Bios settings

    Posted Jul 24, 2015 03:40 PM

    Hello All,

    We need to enable virtualization in about 3500 computers.   This settings can b changed in the BIOS.    Since we don't want to go to each workstation, we are trying to figure out a way to do it efficiently.

    If we use the HP tool "Biosconfigutility.exe", the user get prompted for a confirmation.

    So i'm exploring if it is possible to do it by putting the bios in "client control mode" via AMT and using the task in altiris to change bios settings.    I'm still trying to make it work and I have trouble authenticate with the target computer AMT.

    Do someone have idea to share with me to be able to solve this problem?  Any hint will be appreciated.

    Thanks

    What your command line looks like? Do you have a bios password?
    This tool should be able to run silent.

    We use the tool to set BIOS settings in 8100-8300 PCs, what hardware are you trying it on? Edit: With no user prompt.
