Remove-SCOMDisabledClassInstance [-ComputerName <String[]> ] [-Credential <PSCredential> ] [-SCSession <Connection[]> ] [ <CommonParameters>]

Detailed Description

The Remove-SCOMDisabledClassInstance cmdlet deletes class instances for which you previously disabled discovery. The cmdlet also deletes all relationships that involve these class instances. You can disable discovery for an instance by using the Disable-SCOMDiscovery cmdlet.

By default, this cmdlet uses the active persistent connection to a management group. Use the SCSession parameter to specify a different persistent connection. You can create a temporary connection to a management group by using the ComputerName and Credential parameters. For more information, type Get-Help about_OpsMgr_Connections.

Caution This operation permanently deletes class instances and relationships. This operation may cause significant activity in the operational database.
