Description

Use this cmdlet to disable one or more alerts in Configuration Manager.

Configuration Manager doesn't evaluate the condition for a disabled alert. It doesn't update a disabled alert, even if the state of the alert changes.

Note

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

Examples

Example 1: Disable an alert by using alert ID

This command disables an alert that has the ID 16777218.

Disable-CMAlert -Id "16777218"

Example 2: Disable an alert by using alert object variable

The first command gets an alert object that has the ID 16777221, and then stores it in the $AlertObj variable.

The second command disables the alert stored in the $AlertObj variable.

$AlertObj = Get-CMAlert -Id "16777221"
Disable-CMAlert -InputObject $AlertObj
