Abstract:
A tool for managing device driver aggregation during operating system deployment. The tool receives, by a first computer processor, a request for a device bundle, the request including a unique identifier. The tool determines, by the first computer processor, whether an available driver bundle matches the requested device bundle based, at least in part, on the unique identifier. Responsive to determining an available driver bundle does not match a requested device bundle, the tool creates, by the first computer processor, an associated driver bundle for the requested device bundle.
