The script has logic built-in to detect if settings were already set correctly, were successfully set, failed to set, or were not found on the device. Note that the log file path will always be set to _SMSTSLogPath when run during a task sequence. The log file name and path can be changed using the LogFile parameter. Otherwise, the log file will be located in ProgramData\ConfigJonScripts\HP. If the script is being run during a task sequence, the log file will be located in the _SMSTSLogPath. By default, this log file will be named Manage-HPBiosSettings.Log. When the script runs, it will write to a log file. You can then sort through the exported settings and either save them as a CSV file or add them to the $Settings array in the body of the script. The CsvPath parameter can also be specified to output the list of settings to a CSV file.

"Prompt for Admin password on F12 (Network Boot),Enable",Ī full list of configurable settings can be exported from a device by calling the script with the GetSettings parameter. "Prompt for Admin password on F11 (System Recovery),Enable", "Prompt for Admin password on F9 (Boot Menu),Enable", The settings should be in the format of “Setting Name,Setting Value” To specify settings in the script, look for the $Settings array near the top of the script. When using the script to set settings, the list of settings can either be specified in the script itself or in a CSV file. SetupPassword – Used to specify the BIOS password.Using this switch with the SetSettings switch will also cause the script to ignore any settings specified in the body of the script. If used with the SetSettings switch, this acts as the location where the script will read BIOS settings to be set from. If used with the GetSettings switch, this acts as the location where a list of current BIOS settings will be saved. CsvPath – Use this parameter to specify the location of a CSV file.Settings can be specified either in the body of the script or from a CSV file. SetSettings – Use this parameter to instruct the script to set specific BIOS settings.The settings will be displayed to the screen by default. GetSettings – Use this parameter to instruct the script to generate a list of all current BIOS settings.This script takes the basic commands and adds logic to allow for a more automated settings management process. 6 – Access Denied (Usually caused by an incorrect BIOS password)įor more detailed information on the HP WMI interface, refer to the official documentation: Manage-HPBiosSettings.ps1.4 – Failed (Usually caused by a typo in the setting value).This method allows for changing HP BIOS settings.įor reference, these are the possible return codes for the SetBIOSSetting method: The HP_BIOSSettingInterface WMI class contains a method called SetBIOSSetting. $Interface.SetBIOSSetting("Deep Sleep","On","" + "Password") #Set a specific value for a specific setting when a BIOS password is set $Interface.SetBIOSSetting("Deep Sleep","On") #Set a specific value for a specific setting when a BIOS password is not set $Interface = Get-WmiObject -Namespace root\HP\InstrumentedBIOS -Class HP_BIOSSettingInterface
#Connect to the HP_BIOSSettingInterface WMI class
