11.3 OS Deployment Method Invocation Examples
11.3.1 Get Driver Pack Information
The GetDriverPackInfo() method returns the embedded driver pack version and list of supported OSs for
OS deployment that can be installed on the server using the embedded device drivers present in the
Lifecycle Controller.
1. Follow the steps listed in Section 11.1 to test for profile conformance.
2. Invoke extrinsic method using the following parameters:
a. object path = object path returned from Section 11.1 (profile conformance)
b. Method name = “GetDriverPackInfo”
3. Invoke method returns the following output parameters:
a. Version = String version
b. SupportedOperatingSystems = String array of OS names
4. If the Job output parameter from Step 2 contains a non-null value, then both Version and OSList
contain null values. The next call to GetDriverPackInfo() after the Job is completed will return non-
null values for output parameters Version and OSList. Invoke GetDriverPackInfo() with the
following syntax:
EXAMPLE:
winrm i GetDriverPackInfo cimv2/root/dcim/DCIM_OSDeploymentService
?CreationClassName=DCIM_OSDeploymentService +Name=DCIM:OSDeploymentService
+SystemCreationClassName=DCIM_ComputerSystem +SystemName=DCIM:ComputerSystem -

OUTPUT:
