Description

The Get-WdsDriverPackage cmdlet gets properties of driver packages from the Windows Deployment Services driver store. Specify a driver package by its unique name or ID. If you do not specify a name or ID, the cmdlet gets all driver packages in the store.

Examples

Example 1: Get a driver package by using a package ID

PS C:\> Get-WdsDriverPackage -Id 32d78628-07fb-4e18-adc4-f0ecf8b41bbe

This command gets the driver package that has the specified ID.

Example 2: Get a driver package by name

PS C:\>Get-WdsDriverPackage -Name "Fabrikam Device Driver (x64)"

This command gets the driver package named Fabrikam Device Driver (x64). This name must be unique.

Parameters

-AsJob

Runs the cmdlet as a background job. Use this parameter to run commands that take a long time to complete. The cmdlet immediately returns an object that represents the job and then displays the command prompt. You can continue to work in the session while the job completes. To manage the job, use the *-Job cmdlets. To get the job results, use the Receive-Job cmdlet. For more information about Windows PowerShell® background jobs, see about_Jobs.

-CimSession

Runs the cmdlet in a remote session or on a remote computer. Enter a computer name or a session object, such as the output of a New-CimSession or Get-CimSession cmdlet. The default is the current session on the local computer.

-Id

Specifies an ID. This is the ID of the driver package to get.

Type:Guid
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:True

-Name

Specifies a name. This is the unique name of the driver package. If this name is not unique, specify the driver package ID, instead, by using the Id parameter.

Type:String
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:True

-ThrottleLimit

Specifies the maximum number of concurrent operations that can be established to run the cmdlet. If this parameter is omitted or a value of 0 is entered, then Windows PowerShell® calculates an optimum throttle limit for the cmdlet based on the number of CIM cmdlets that are running on the computer. The throttle limit applies only to the current cmdlet, not to the session or to the computer.
