Examples

Example 1: Remove all VMX computer configurations without being prompted to confirm each deletion

The first command retrieves all VMX computer configuration objects from the VMM database on VMMServer01, and then stores these objects in the $VMXComputerConfigs object array.

The second command passes each object in $VMXComputerConfigs to Remove-SCVMXComputerConfiguration That cmdlet removes each VMX computer configuration object.

PS C:\> $VMXComputerConfigs = Get-SCVMXComputerConfiguration -VMMServer "VMMServer01.Contoso.com"
PS C:\> $VMXComputerConfigs | Remove-SCVMXComputerConfiguration
