The ``ilo`` and ``ilo5`` hardware types support ``ilo`` BIOS interface.
The support includes providing manual clean steps *apply_configuration* and

See :ref:`bios` for more details and examples.
.. note::
The change in the settings will take into effect after next power cycle.
Prior to the Stein release the user is required to reboot the node manually
in order for the settings to take into effect. Starting with the Stein
release, iLO drivers reboot the node after running clean steps related to
the BIOS configuration. The BIOS settings are cached and the clean step is
marked as success only if all the requested settings are applied without
any failure. If application of any of the settings fails, the clean step is
marked as failed and the settings are not cached.
