You can use the Management of Change (MoC) Package tool (dnapackage) to view the summary (metadata and dependencies) of an MoC published or unpublished package.
Note: The package store (managed by the MOCOrchestrator service) must be available to successfully execute this command.
To view the summary of an MoC package
-
On the desktop, double-click the Windows PowerShell for DNA shortcut.
Windows PowerShell for DNA opens.
-
Execute the following commands:
set-silo RealTime
dnapackage view --title <package title> [--dalfolder <DAL configuration folder> --username <remote username> --password <remote password>]
Where:
-
--title <package title> is the title of a valid package.
-
--dalfolder <DAL configuration folder> is the DAL configuration folder name on the remote system you are trying to connect to (for example, --dalfolder systemName\control_room).
-
--username <remote username> is the username of the user on the remote system you are trying to connect to.
-
--password <remote password> is the password of the user on the remote system you are trying to connect to.
Note: The --dalfolder <DAL configuration folder>, --username <remote username>, and --password <remote password> parameters do not need to be included if you are viewing the summary of a package on the same server as the MOCOrchestrator service. These parameters are mandatory if you are viewing the summary of a package on any other server that does not have the MOCOrchestrator service. For example, viewing the summary of a package on the Production MoC zone would require remote DAL configuration to connect to the MOCOrchestrator service.

The dnapackage view --title "My Package Title" command would result in the following example output:
