Start-RecastOSDCloudCLI

Starts the Recast OSDCloud command-line deployment workflow.

Property	Value
Module	OSD
Platform	WinPE (amd64 / arm64)

Description

Initializes device and deployment context, discovers matching operating systems, resolves driver pack metadata for the current device (or supplied overrides), validates required dependencies, and prepares global state consumed by the Recast OSDCloud CLI workflow. The deployment workflow runs only when the Force switch is supplied.

Syntax

Start-RecastOSDCloudCLI [[-OSArchitecture] <String>] [[-OSReleaseID] <String>] [[-OSLanguageCode] <String>]
 [[-OSActivation] <String>] [[-OSEdition] <String>] [[-OSDManufacturer] <String>] [[-OSDModel] <String>]
 [[-OSDProduct] <String>] [[-WinPEPostAction] <String>] [-Force] [-ProgressAction <ActionPreference>]
 [<CommonParameters>]

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
-OSArchitecture	String	False	Operating system architecture used when selecting catalog entries. Supported values are amd64 and arm64.
-OSReleaseID	String	False	Operating system release identifier used for catalog selection.
-OSLanguageCode	String	False	Operating system language code used for catalog selection. If not specified, the value is inferred from the current keyboard layout.
-OSActivation	String	False	Operating system activation channel used for catalog selection.
-OSEdition	String	False	Operating system edition used for catalog selection. Valid values depend on OSArchitecture at runtime.
-OSDManufacturer	String	False	Overrides the detected computer manufacturer for driver pack matching. If omitted, the detected device manufacturer is used.
-OSDModel	String	False	Overrides the detected computer model for logging and context alignment. If omitted, the detected device model is used.
-OSDProduct	String	False	Overrides the detected computer product/system ID for driver pack matching. If omitted, the detected device product value is used.
-WinPEPostAction	String	False	Specifies the action to take after the WinPE deployment workflow completes.
-Force	SwitchParameter	False	Confirms that OSDCloud should run after initialization. This switch is required to start the deployment workflow because it can modify the deployment disk.

Examples

Example
