Run Configuration Manager cmdlets from the Configuration Manager site drive, for example PS XYZ:\>. For more information, see getting started.
Examples
Example 1
This example first creates an object for the Setup Windows and ConfigMgr step, using the package with ID XYZ0002.
It then gets a task sequence object, and adds this new step to the task sequence at index 11.
$step = New-CMTSStepSetupWindowsAndConfigMgr -Name "Setup Windows and ConfigMgr" -PackageId "XYZ0002"
$tsNameOsd = "Default OS deployment"
$tsOsd = Get-CMTaskSequence -Name $tsNameOsd -Fast
$tsOsd | Add-CMTaskSequenceStep -Step $step -InsertStepStartIndex 11
Parameters
-Condition
Specify a condition object to use with this step. To get this object, use one of the task sequence condition cmdlets. For example, Get-CMTSStepConditionVariable.
