need a function regarding DeviceFirmwareSimpleUpdateREDFISH.py

[kiraway-dev]

Cloud you add a function to power control after updating firmware into below script? https://github.com/dell/iDRAC-Redfish-Scripting/blob/master/Redfish%20Python/DeviceFirmwareSimpleUpdateREDFISH.py

After a firmware update, the default action is to restart, but there are someone who want to shut down the server. Please consider it.

Hi @kiraway-dev

Once the firmware update is complete and you want to shut down the server, is this request for updating all devices (BIOS, NIC, RAID, backplane, iDRAC, etc) or only for iDRAC?

Thanks Tex

​​ yes, I mean for all devices. ​ Thanks Tex.
