New-CMTSStepConditionQueryWmi

Create a WMI query condition for a task sequence step.

Syntax

Default (Default)

New-CMTSStepConditionQueryWmi
    [-Namespace <String[]>]
    -Query <String>
    [-DisableWildcardHandling]
    [-ForceWildcardHandling]
    [-WhatIf]
    [-Confirm]
    [<CommonParameters>]

Description

Use this cmdlet to create a WMI query condition object for a task sequence step. Then use one of the New-CMTSStep* or Set-CMTSStep* cmdlets with the Condition or AddCondition parameters. For example, Set-CMTSStepApplyDataImage.

For more information, see Use the task sequence editor: Conditions.

Note

Run Configuration Manager cmdlets from the Configuration Manager site drive, for example PS XYZ:\>. For more information, see getting started.

Examples

Example 1: Create a query condition based on hardware model

This example first creates a condition object to query WMI for the computer model.

It then uses the Set-CMTSStepRunPowerShellScript cmdlet to add this condition object to the Run PowerShell Script step of the Default OS deployment task sequence.

$model = "Latitude E7470"
$query = "Select * From Win32_ComputerSystem Where Model = `"$model`""

$condition = New-CMTSStepConditionQueryWMI -Namespace "root\cimv2" -Query $query

$tsNameOsd = "Default OS deployment"
$tsStepNameRunPwsh = "Run PowerShell Script"

Set-CMTSStepRunPowerShellScript -TaskSequenceName $tsNameOsd -StepName $tsStepNameRunPwsh -AddCondition $condition

This sample script creates the following condition on the step:

WMI Query Select * From Win32_ComputerSystem Where Model = "Latitude E7470"

Prompts you for confirmation before running the cmdlet.
