Supported Action — InstallFromRepository

Description

This action creates the list of the updates contained in the repository that are supported by LC and are applicable to the system and installed hardware. The successful execution of this action creates a job. The list is copied to a persistent location so that you can query for the updatable list by using GetRepoBasedUpdateList WSMan Command. If the input parameter ApplyUpdate value is True, only the applicable packages are applied and GetRepoBasedUpdateList gives the JOBIDs for all the jobs queued for the devices.
