Here is how its done as a concept. Just try to replace it with your Linux Commands which will fetch Kernal Info and Parse it.

Example is for Windows use case but you can easily build it for ur use case too.

Hi @_Yash24 ,

You can create a extension section in Linux Server Pattern and create a step to get the kernal version, Refer the below article, where couple of commands mentioned to get the Kernal version.

Best Cammand to get Kernal Version only -=  uname –r

Hi @AJ-TechTrek  and @Rahul Priyadars ,

Thank you for the reply.

First I need to implement it in PDI, Is it possible to implement in my PDI?

I tried but In PDI I dont have MID server installed so at the time of Debug (Debug Mode) its asking for MID server IP details and couldn't procceed ahead from that step.

Is there any other way I can implement this solution in PDI?

Or can we skip debug mode step and procceed with next step in PDI? if yes then how?

Thanks,

Yash

Hi @_Yash24 ,

Yes you can try on your PDI as well, use the free virtual machines on Azure and install the mid application on windows server.

Azure will provide the two virtual machine (Windows and Linux) free to troubleshoot and learn the Azure things.

Let me know if any more information required on this.
