supporting this new addition,
1. DCIM_LCService.ExportLCLog()
2. DCIM_LCService.ExportCompleteLCLog()
3. DCIM_LCService.ExportHWInventory()
4. DCIM_LCService.ExportFactoryConfiguration()
5. DCIM_LCService.ExportSystemConfiguration()
6. DCIM_LCService.ImportSystemConfiguration()
7. DCIM_LCService.ImportSystemConfigurationPreview()
8. DCIM_LCService.ExportCertificate()
9. DCIM_LCService.ExportPSADiagnosticResult()
10. DCIM_LCService.BackupImage()
11. DCIM_LCService.RestoreImage()
12. DCIM_LCService.TestNetworkShare()
13. DCIM_LCService.SetBackupSchedule()
14. DCIM_LicenseManagementService.ExportLicenseToNetworkShare()
15. DCIM_LicenseManagementService.ImportLicenseFromNetworkShare()
16. DCIM_BIOSCertService.ExportBootCertificate()
17. DCIM_BIOSCertService.ImportBootCertificate()
18. DCIM_SoftwareInstallationService.SetUpdateSchedule() (support since 13G, enhanced in 14G)
19. DCIM_SoftwareInstallationService.InstallFromURI()
20. DCIM_SoftwareInstallationService.InstallFromRepository()
