So I’m working on a client site at the moment with a difficult to automate OU structure. Essentially I need to be able to add and get ConfigMgr machine variables easily and without the need of the PowerShell module.
So as we do… I went to google, found a couple of nice hints then though I’d write them into functions to be easily re-used.
The beauty of these functions is they can be run from anywhere in your site or during a task sequence as they use WMI.
This means as long as the account running the script has access to the ConfigMgr site you can play with variables!
Anyway download the most up to date versions of the functions from the SCCMOG GitHub Repo:
