DESCRIPTION
The Set-PcsvDeviceBootConfiguration cmdlet modifies the boot configuration for a remote hardware device. To retrieve the current boot configuration for
a device, use the Get-PcsvDevice cmdlet.
The StructuredBootString property of the returned instance lists the valid boot sources, and the OneTimeBootSource property indicates whether one of the
valid boot sources has already been configured to be the primary boot source for the next time the device undergoes a full restart.

-SkipCACheck [<SwitchParameter>]
Indicates that the client connects by using HTTPS without validating that a trusted CA signed the server certificate. Do not specify this parameter
if you specify a value of IPMI for the ManagmentProtocol parameter.
Do not specify this parameter unless you can establish trust in another way, such as if the remote computer is part of a network that is physically
secure and isolated, or if the remote computer is a trusted host in a Windows Remote Management (WinRM) configuration.
Required? false
Position? named
Default value none
Accept pipeline input? True (ByPropertyName)
Accept wildcard characters? false
-SkipCNCheck [<SwitchParameter>]
Indicates that the certificate common name of the server does not need to match the hostname of the server. Do not specify this parameter if you
specify a value of IPMI for the ManagmentProtocol parameter.

computers.
Required? false

Accept pipeline input? True (ByPropertyName)
Accept wildcard characters? false
-SkipRevocationCheck [<SwitchParameter>]
Indicates that the cmdlet skips the revocation check of server certificates. Do not specify this parameter if you specify a value of IPMI for the
ManagmentProtocol parameter.

mobile devices, the BMC sometimes shares the same IP address as the computer.
Required? true
Position? 2
Default value none
Accept pipeline input? True (ByPropertyName)
Accept wildcard characters? false
-ThrottleLimit [<Int32>]
Specifies the maximum number of concurrent operations that can be established to run the cmdlet. If this parameter is omitted or a value of 0 is
entered, then Windows PowerShell???? calculates an optimum throttle limit for the cmdlet based on the number of CIM cmdlets that are running on the
computer. The throttle limit applies only to the current cmdlet, not to the session or to the computer.
Required? false
Position? named
Default value none
Accept pipeline input? false

Accept pipeline input? True (ByPropertyName)
Accept wildcard characters? false
-UseSSL [<SwitchParameter>]
Indicates that the cmdlet connects to a remote device by using SSL. WS-Management encrypts all content transmitted over the network. Specify this
parameter to use the additional protection of HTTPS instead of HTTP. If you specify this parameter and SSL is not available on the connection port,

INPUTS
OUTPUTS
Microsoft.Management.Infrastructure.CimInstance#root/Microsoft/Windows/HardwareManagement/MSFT_PCSVDevice
The PCSV device is only returned as output if the PassThru parameter is specified.
Example 1 Modify the device boot configuration to use PXE boot
PS C:\\> $MyCred = Get-Credential
PS C:\\> Set-PCSVDeviceBootConfiguration -TargetAdress 10.1.12.43 -ManagementProtocol WSMan -Credential $MyCred -UseSSL -OneTimeBootSource "CIM:Network:1"
This example configures the boot source to use Pre-Boot Execution Environment (PXE) boot the next time the system boots.
The first command uses the Get-Credential cmdlet to get credentials, and stores the credentials in the variable named $MyCred. The cmdlet prompts you
for a user name and password. For more information, type Get-Help Get-Credential.
The second command modifies the device boot configuration for the target computer, by using the OneTimeBootSource parameter to specify the boot
configuration.
Example 2: Modify the device boot configuration to use the DVD drive
PS C:\\> $MyCred = Get-Credential
PS C:\\> Get-PCSVDevice -TargetAddress 10.1.12.43 -ManagementProtocol WSMan -Credential $MyCred -UseSSL | Set-PcsvDeviceBootConfiguration
-OneTimeBootSource "CIM:CD/DVD:1"
This example configures the boot source to use the DVD drive for the next time the system boots.
The first command uses the Get-Credential cmdlet to get credentials, and stores the credentials in the variable named $MyCred. The cmdlet prompts you
for a user name and password. For more information, type Get-Help Get-Credential.
The second command uses the Get-PcsvDevice cmdlet to retrieve the configuration for the target computer, and passes the output to the
Set-PcsvDeviceBootConfiguration cmdlet by using the pipeline operator.
