metalcloud-cli firmware-baseline update

Update an existing firmware baseline

Update an existing firmware baseline.

This command allows you to update the configuration of an existing firmware baseline. Updates are provided through a configuration file (JSON or YAML format) that contains the new settings to apply.

The configuration file should contain only the fields you want to update. Common updates include:

  • Basic metadata (name, description)
  • Level and level filter specifications
  • Catalog associations

The baseline will be revalidated after updates to ensure consistency and compatibility.

Required Flags: —config-source Source of the configuration updates (JSON/YAML file path or ‘pipe’)

Arguments: firmware_baseline_id The ID of the firmware baseline to update

Examples: metalcloud-cli firmware-baseline update 54321 —config-source ./baseline-updates.json cat updates.json | metalcloud-cli fw-baseline update production-baseline —config-source pipe metalcloud-cli baseline edit dell-r640-standard —config-source ./version-update.yaml

Configuration file example (baseline-updates.json): { “name”: “Updated Production Dell R640 Baseline”, “description”: “Updated with latest security patches”, “level”: “PRODUCTION”, “levelFilter”: [“dell_r640”, “dell_r640_gen2”], “catalog”: [“dell-catalog-r640-v2”, “dell-catalog-common”] }
