Important changes

New cmdlets

The following cmdlets are added to create requirement rules for deployment types and global conditions:

  • New-CMGlobalConditionExpression
  • New-CMRegistryAccessControlEntry
  • New-CMRequirementRuleActiveDirectorySiteValue
  • New-CMRequirementRuleBooleanValue
  • New-CMRequirementRuleCMSiteValue
  • New-CMRequirementRuleCommonValue
  • New-CMRequirementRuleDeviceOwnershipValue
  • New-CMRequirementRuleExistential
  • New-CMRequirementruleExpression
  • New-CMRequirementRuleFileAttributeValue
  • New-CMRequirementRuleFilePermissionValue
  • New-CMRequirementRuleFreeDiskSpaceValue
  • New-CMRequirementRuleInputTypeValue
  • New-CMRequirementRuleOperatingSystemLanguageValue
  • New-CMRequirementRuleOperatingSystemValue
  • New-CMRequirementRuleOUValue
  • New-CMRequirementRuleScreenResolutionValue

Supported cmdlets for Add and Set-CM*DeploymentType have added parameters for GroupDetectionClauses and DetectionClauseConnector.

Examples

Create a simple expression with a rule
$rule1 = Get-CMGlobalCondition -Name "Total physical memory" | New-CMRequirementRuleCommonValue -Value1 2048 -RuleOperator GreaterEquals
$myRuleExpression = New-CMRequirementRuleExpression -AddRequirementRule $rule1
$myGC = New-CMGlobalConditionExpression -Name "GCExp" -DeviceType Windows -RootExpression $myRuleExpression
Add a complex global condition expression
$ruleProc = Get-CMGlobalCondition -Name "Number of processors" | New-CMRequirementRuleCommonValue -Value1 2 -RuleOperator GreaterEquals
$ruleMem1 = Get-CMGlobalCondition -Name "Total physical memory" | New-CMRequirementRuleCommonValue -Value1 2048 -RuleOperator GreaterThan
$ruleMem2 = Get-CMGlobalCondition -Name "Total physical memory" | New-CMRequirementRuleCommonValue -Value1 4096 -RuleOperator LessEquals
$ruleCPUSpeed1 = Get-CMGlobalCondition -Name "CPU Speed" | New-CMRequirementRuleCommonValue -Value1 5120 -RuleOperator LessEquals
$ruleCPUSpeed2 = Get-CMGlobalCondition -Name "CPU Speed" | New-CMRequirementRuleCommonValue -Value1 1024 -RuleOperator GreaterThan
$expressionProc = New-CMRequirementRuleExpression -AddRequirementRule $ruleProc
$expressionMem = New-CMRequirementRuleExpression -AddRequirementRule $ruleMem1, $ruleMem2 -ClauseOperator And
$expressionCPU = New-CMRequirementRuleExpression -AddRequirementRule $ruleCPUSpeed1, $ruleCPUSpeed2 -ClauseOperator And
$myRuleExpression = New-CMRequirementRuleExpression -RootExpression $expressionProc -AddExpression $expressionMem,$expressionCPU -ClauseOperator And -AddAsGroup -GroupOperator Or
$myGC = New-CMGlobalConditionExpression -Name "GCExp" -DeviceType Windows -RootExpression $myRuleExpression
Add a language rule
$myGC = Get-CMGlobalCondition -Name "Operating System Language" | Where-Object PlatformType -eq 1
$cultureA = [System.Globalization.CultureInfo]::GetCultures([System.Globalization.CultureTypes]::AllCultures) | Where-Object Name -eq "zh"
$cultureB = [System.Globalization.CultureInfo]::GetCultures([System.Globalization.CultureTypes]::AllCultures) | Where-Object Name -eq "zh-CN"
$myRule = $myGC | New-CMRequirementRuleOperatingSystemLanguageValue -RuleOperator NoneOf -Culture $cultureA,$cultureB -IsMobile $False
Set-CMScriptDeploymentType -ApplicationName "myApp" -DeploymentTypeName "myDT" -AddRequirement $myRule
Create a simple expression with a rule.
$clauseFile1 = New-CMDetectionClauseFile -FileName "abc" -Path "c:\abc" -PropertyType Size -ExpectedValue 1024 -ExpressionOperator IsEquals -Value
$clauseFile2 = New-CMDetectionClauseFile -FileName "abc" -Path "c:\abc" -PropertyType Size -ExpectedValue 2048 -ExpressionOperator IsEquals -Value
$clauseFile3 = New-CMDetectionClauseFile -FileName "abc" -Path "c:\abc" -PropertyType Size -ExpectedValue 4096 -ExpressionOperator IsEquals -Value

Set-CMScriptDeploymentType -ApplicationName "testApp1" -DeploymentTypeName "abc" -AddDetectionClause $clauseFile1,$clauseFile2,$clauseFile3 -DetectionClauseConnector @{"LogicalName"=$clauseFile3.Setting.LogicalName;"Connector"="OR"} -GroupDetectionClauses $clauseFile2.Setting.LogicalName, $clauseFile3.Setting.LogicalName

Removed cmdlets

None

Deprecated cmdlets

None

Known issues

The following items are known issues with the Cmdlet Library that aren't resolved in this version.

Get-CMAadConditionalAccessPolicy and Set-CMAadConditionalAccessPolicy

These cmdlets require a 64-bit PowerShell environment.

Workaround

  • None

Import-CMSecurityRole

Cmdlet may fail with a DirectoryNotFoundException error locating the file SecuredRoles.xsd.

Workaround

  • Call Import-Module against the ConfigurationManager.psd1 file, and not the logical path or module name.

Set-CMSoftwareUpdatePoint

Changes to Schedule may not be shown in the Configuration Manager console even though the underlying SMS Provider object has been changed.

Workaround

  • Quit and relaunch the Configuration Manager console.

Resource tracking and recovery (beta)

This version adds new cmdlets to support tracking SMS Provider objects used by the PowerShell runtime, and to clean up these resources when they're no longer needed.

  • Disconnect-CMTrackedObject
  • Start-CMObjectTracking
  • Stop-CMObjectTracking

When you run Start-CMObjectTracking, the PowerShell runtime tracks IResultObject objects created by Cmdlet Library cmdlets. For cmdlets that aren't manually cleaned up with .Dispose(), reclaim them by using Disconnect-CMTrackedObject against an individual object.

Example

# Reclaim a single tracked object
$o | Disconnect-CMTrackedObject

# Reclaim all tracked objects
Disconnect-CMTrackedObject -All

Once an object is reclaimed, it can no longer be reused or passed to another cmdlet through the object pipeline.

Stop-CMObjectTracking can be used to turn off object tracking. Previously allocated objects remain active.

Unclaimed resources can cause the SMS Provider to raise quota violation errors. These quota issues typically manifest from working with large sets of SMS Provider objects or in long-running environments.

Note

This feature is experimental and may be subject to change or removal in a future release. It's opt-in and isn't enabled by default.
