[RFC] DRAC: get progress after submitting set_bios_config request

[Imre Farkas]

After set_bios_config is invoked, user has no way to check if the remote job is completed or not. Vendor-passthru interface should provide a method along with get/set_bios_config that lists all unfinished jobs.

Long-term it would be best to convert set_bios_config to a manual clean step and deprecate it on vendor-passthru.

I feel like this is more of an RFE than a bug. Marked it as such, and went ahead and approved it. Thanks!

    DRAC: list unfinished jobs

    After set_bios_config is invoked, there is no way to check the progress
    of the remote job on the DRAC card. list_unfinished_jobs on the
    vendor-passthru interface provides a way to check its status.

    Fix DRAC passthru 'list_unfinished_jobs' desc

    This fixes the description for DRAC's "list_unfinished_jobs()"
    passthru method. It incorrectly indicates that there are
    required arguments, but no arguments are required from the caller
    of that REST API. The description indicates what is returned
    by that method.

    This is a followup to I963504dbbec36e44312ccbf4455c45d6ec60908b.
