In Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager 2007, you remove a Windows driver from an operating system deployment boot image package by removing it from the ReferencedDrivers property of the SMS_BootImagePackage Server WMI Class object.

Note

The driver is not removed until the boot image package is refreshed and updated on the distribution points.

To remove a Windows driver from a boot image package

Set up a connection to the SMS Provider. For more information, see About the SMS Provider in Configuration Manager.
Get the SMS_BootImagePackage object for the boot image package that contains the driver you want to remove.
Remove the driver from the ReferencedDrivers property. The driver is identified by its configuration item identifier represented by the ID property of the SMS_Driver_Details Server WMI Class object. This identifier matches the CI_ID property of SMS_Driver.
Commit the SMS_BootImagePackage object changes.
Refresh the boot image package by calling RefreshPkgSource.

Example

The following example method removes the Windows driver from the boot image package. The package is identified by its PackageID property and the driver is identified by its CI_ID property.

For information about calling the sample code, see Calling Configuration Manager Code Snippets.

Sub RemoveDriverFromBootImagePackage(connection, driverId, packageId)
    Dim bootImagePackage
    Dim driver 
    Dim driverDetails
    Dim newReferencedDrivers()
    Dim found
    Dim index

    ' Get the boot image package.
    Set bootImagePackage = connection.Get("SMS_BootImagePackage.PackageID='" & packageId &"'" )
    
    found = False
    index=0
    
    ' Copy the contents and leave out the driver.
    For Each driver In bootImagePackage.ReferencedDrivers
        If driver.ID = driverID Then
            found=True
        Else
           Set newReferencedDrivers(index)=driver
           index = index + 1 
        End If
    Next
    
    ' Update the referenced drivers.
    If found=True Then  
        ReDim preserve newReferencedDrivers(UBound(bootImagePackage.ReferencedDrivers)-1)
        bootImagePackage.ReferencedDrivers=newReferencedDrivers
        bootImagePackage.Put_
        bootImagePackage.RefreshPkgSource
   End If         
 
End Sub

public void RemoveDriverFromBootImagePackage(
    WqlConnectionManager connection,
    int driverId,
    string packageId)
{
    try
    {
        // Get the boot image package.
        IResultObject bootImagePackage = connection.GetInstance(@"SMS_BootImagePackage.packageId='" + packageId + "'");
        
        // Get the (SMS_Driver_Details) drivers referenced by the package.
        List<IResultObject> referencedDrivers = bootImagePackage.GetArrayItems("ReferencedDrivers");

        foreach (IResultObject ro in referencedDrivers)
        {
            if (ro["ID"].IntegerValue == driverId) // Remove the driver that matches driverId.
            {
                referencedDrivers.Remove(ro);
                break;
            }
        }

        bootImagePackage.SetArrayItems("ReferencedDrivers", referencedDrivers);

        // Commit the changes.
        bootImagePackage.Put();
        bootImagePackage.ExecuteMethod("RefreshPkgSource", null);
    }
    catch (SmsException e)
    {
        Console.WriteLine(e.Message);
        throw;
    }
}

The example method has the following parameters:

Parameter	Type	Description
Connection	Managed: WqlConnectionManager VBScript: SWbemServices	A valid connection to the SMS Provider.
driverID	Managed: Integer VBScript: Integer	The Windows driver identifier available in SMS_Driver.CI_ID.
PackageID	Managed: String VBScript: String	The boot image package identifier available in SMS_BootImagePackage.PackageID.
