CmdLets SCCM

A SCCM server administration will be generally to add new drivers, images of boot or to installations and applications. This will also be to monitor the State of health of the infrastructure by looking at the logs file.
Using PowerShell with CmdLets SCCM is justified because it is thus possible to script some action and therefore to industrialize the process which some may be “heavy” when there are executed manually. For this Microsoft provides to people wishing Cmdlets to perform the administration of one or more servers SCCM.

To ensure continuity of service of the scripts during the climb in a SCCM Server version, we recommend that you download the latest version. This can be done using Download Center.
