cancelOS—Cancel OS Installation Order

This action cancels a pending installation of an OS image. This method cancels the installation request when

The specified target system exists.
The specified target is OSIM-managed.
An OS installation order is pending.

In any other case, the method fails.

Note: A pending installation can only be canceled as long as the order is scheduled at the boot server and the target system has not started with the installation yet.

This action has the following format:

targetComputer action=cancelOS

name=computer_name

name: Specifies the name of the computer of which the pending installation is canceled.

Note: When the target is in any state other than pending, use the force option to abort the OS installation. For example, cadsmcmd targetcomputer action=cancelOS name=<computer name> force.
