failed. If a job failure occurs, the job instance also contains an error message property that provides detailed information

on the nature of the failure. Other properties contain other error identification information that can be used to localize

the error message to the supported languages and get more detailed error descriptions and recommended response

action descriptions.

All the DCIM_OSDeploymentService related methods described in this document return error codes indicating

whether the method was successfully executed, an error occurred, or a job was created. Job creation occurs if the

action being performed in the method cannot be completed immediately. Additionally, if an error occurs, the methods

also returns output parameters that include an error message (in English) and other error identifiers that can be used to

localize the error to the supported languages. The error identifiers can be used to index into and process Dell Message

Registry XML files. The Dell Message Registry files are available in the six supported languages, one file per language.

In addition to translated error messages, the Message Registry files contain additional detailed error descriptions and

recommended response actions for each error returned by the Lifecycle Controller Remote Services web service

interface. To download the Dell Message Registry XML files, see delltechcenter.com/page/Lifecycle+Controller/.
