Remove-SCISO
Applies To: System Center 2012 - Virtual Machine Manager
Remove-SCISO
Removes an ISO file from the VMM library.
Syntax
Parameter Set: Default
Remove-SCISO [-ISO] <ISO> [-Force] [-JobVariable <String> ] [-PROTipID <Guid> ] [-RunAsynchronously] [ <CommonParameters>]
Detailed Description
The Remove-SCISO cmdlet removes an ISO file from the System Center Virtual Machine Manager (VMM) library and deletes the ISO file on the library server.
If the ISO is attached to a virtual machine, template, or hardware profile (and if you do not use the Force parameter), VMM lists the container that includes the ISO and prompts you to confirm that you want to remove the ISO:
- If you reply Yes, VMM removes the association between the ISO and
the container to which it is attached, and then deletes the ISO
object from VMM.
- If you reply No, the operation is cancelled.
This cmdlet returns the object upon success (with the property MarkedForDeletion set to TRUE) or returns an error message upon failure.

For example:
- Remove-SCSCVMHost -Force

- Stop-SCVirtualMachine -Force
Stops a virtual machine.

<CommonParameters>
This cmdlet supports the common parameters: -Verbose, -Debug, -ErrorAction, -ErrorVariable, -OutBuffer, and -OutVariable. For more information, see about_CommonParameters.
Inputs
The input type is the type of the objects that you can pipe to the cmdlet.
Outputs
The output type is the type of the objects that the cmdlet emits.
Notes
- Requires a VMM ISO object, which can be retrieved by using the Get-SCISO cmdlet.
Examples
1: Remove an ISO object and delete the corresponding .iso file.
The first command gets the ISO object named OsISO.iso from LibraryServer01 and stores the ISO object in the $ISO variable.
The second command removes the ISO object from the library and deletes the corresponding .iso file from the file system on the library server.
PS C:\> $ISO = Get-SCISO -VMMServer "VMMServer01.Contoso.com" | where { $_.Name -eq "OsISO.iso" -and $_.LibraryServer.Name -eq "LibraryServer01.Contoso.com" }
PS C:\> Remove-SCISO -ISO $ISO
2: Remove multiple ISO objects from the library.
The first command gets all ISO objects whose name includes the string "OsISO" and stores these ISO objects in the $ISOs variable.
The second command passes each ISO object in $ISOs to the Remove-ISO cmdlet, which removes each ISO object from the library and deletes the corresponding .iso file from the file system on the library server.
PS C:\> $ISOs = Get-SCISO -VMMServer "VMMServer01.Contoso.com" | where { $_.Name -match "OsISO" }
PS C:\> $ISOs | Remove-SCISO
