bios

Collects BIOS information, including the boot type, cache mode, and PCIe rate.

Data collection supports the BMC mode (login required), in-band mode, and the mode that skips BMC. When ipmitool is used for data collection, the report will not include information from modules that strongly depend on the BMC.
The in-band mode can be used only by the root user.
If the in-band mode is not supported, you need to download and install iBMA. For details, see iBMA 2.0 User Guide.
