OME wants to install windows driver pack for ESXi host

I scanned one of my ESXi 5.1 host. OME 2.1 wants to install a windows driver pack on it! 

I've included the screenshot. What's up with this :)

Hi,

The OS drivers pack is not limited to Windows OS only. It is an OS drivers pack which is possible to be deployed via iDRAC method.

Your saying this is a driver pack for ESXi?

Where can I find a list of what drivers are included?

thanks,jb

It's not exactly a driver pack for ESXi, but rather a driver pack that is installed for the lifecycle controller.  It does not actually install to the OS, but rather preloads necessary drivers into the lifecycle controller in case you ever decide to switch OS.  Up to you if you want to install.  FYI, I did push this package out to my ESXi hosts via the iDRAC, and it had absolutely no adverse effects within the OS but it did seem to take a while to install.
