Sample artifact bundles for use with HPE Image Streamer. The overall intent is to provide a minimum number of Plan Scripts supporting a maximum of operating system flavors and versions. Plan Script and Build Plan sources are provided in text files with a meaningful name to avoid their download and extraction to see their content.
