Changing the Ownership Tag
Here is a sample script to change the ownership tag setting. The value field may need some
modification. Note that “E302E020304” is the keyboard scan code for the keys “abc123”.
Const wbemFlagReturnImmediately = 16
Const wbemFlagForwardOnly = 32
lFlags = wbemFlagReturnImmediately + wbemFlagForwardOnly
strService = "winmgmts:{impersonationlevel=impersonate}//"
strComputer = "."
strNamespace = "/root/HP/InstrumentedBIOS"
strQuery = "select * from HP_BIOSSettingInterface"
Set objWMIService = GetObject(strService & _
strComputer & strNamespace)
Set colItems = objWMIService.ExecQuery(strQuery,,lFlags)
‘ "Enter Ownership Tag" is the name of the BIOS setting
‘ instance object that we want to update. The correct
‘ names of available settings are found by enumerating
‘ all instances of HP_BIOSSetting.
For each objItem in colItems
objItem.SetBiosSetting oReturn, _
"Enter Ownership Tag", _
"Some environment-specific inventory code", _
"<kbd/>1E302E020304"
Next
Dim strReturn
Select Case oReturn
Case 0 strReturn = "Success"
Case 1 strReturn = "Not Supported"
Case 2 strReturn = "Unspecified Error"
Case 3 strReturn = "Timeout"
Case 4 strReturn = "Failed"
