Scripting

I am trying to run an upgrade script through SCCM for Dell Bios Firmware.

I need it to run silently without an immediate reboot.

When I push the script, the upgrade runs and logs as successful with an exit code of 2 - Reboot Required.

However, when a user manually reboots after the process either immediately afterwards or at End of Business, the bios flash does not run during the post sequence and no upgrade is performed.

This is the script: E7470-06.exe /s /FORCEIT /l=c:\logs\E7470-06.log

Any help as to why it doesn't complete the upgrade after reboot would be greatly appreciated.
