I am thinking about making something on a bootable CD or similar – if possible…
I have been looking around, as far as I know , You can use SmartStart Scripting Toolkit to achieve.
I read the attached PDF file, I saw tools such as RBSURESET to reset the BIOS settings and SETBOOTORDER, which allows you to set the order of booting the device. But I don’t see any tools to change other settings. BIOS, such as the settings in “Advanced BIOS Settings”
If anyone can tell me how to solve this problem, where to start, best practices or links to any Tutorial, I will be very grateful.

The idea of conrep is that you can manually configure a single system, and then capture its settings into a file that can be used for other system deployment. Syntax example:
To configure BIOS low-latency options using the conrep utility in SSSTK:
1. Change the current directory to the SSSTK/utilities directory:
cd SSSTK/utilities
2. To disable Processor Power and Utilization Monitoring, verify that the conrep.dat file contains the
following markup:0x10
3. To disable Memory Pre-Failure Notification, verify that the conrep.dat file contains the following markup:1
4. Enter the following commands: ./conrep -l -fconrep.dat reboot
We are doing a large-scale server deployment (DL160SE G6), I need to find a way to configure their B IOS Set up without going through the RBSU of each server-it will take too long.

You should be able to use the HP conrep utility provided in the SmartStart Scripting Toolkit to accomplish this task. If you are Check the advanced BIOS settings. Have you tried to change the system’s low latency option set? This is a link to an HP white paper that details the settings of specific low-latency applications. It covers some advanced BIOS options:
