Get-SCISO

Get-SCISO

Gets ISO files from the VMM library.

Syntax

Parameter Set: All
Get-SCISO [-All] [-VMMServer <ServerConnection> ] [ <CommonParameters>]

Parameter Set: EquivalentResourceParamSet
Get-SCISO -FamilyName <String> [-Release <String> ] [-VMMServer <ServerConnection> ] [ <CommonParameters>]

Parameter Set: ID
Get-SCISO [-ID <Guid> ] [-VMMServer <ServerConnection> ] [ <CommonParameters>]

Parameter Set: NameParamSet
Get-SCISO -Name <String> [-VMMServer <ServerConnection> ] [ <CommonParameters>]

Detailed Description

The Get-SCISO cmdlet gets ISO files from the VMM library. ISO files are stored in library shares on library servers.

In Virtual Machine Manager (VMM), some typical uses of an ISO file include:

- Storing an operating system ISO in the library that you can use

later to install that operating system on a new or existing virtual

machine deployed on a host.

- Storing application software, such as a Microsoft Office ISO, in

the library, so that you can install it later on a virtual machine

deployed on a host.

Parameters

-All

Retrieves a full list of all subordinate objects independent of the parent object. For example, the command Get-SCVirtualDiskDrive -All retrieves all virtual disk drive objects regardless of the virtual machine object or template object that each virtual disk drive object is associated with.

-FamilyName<String>

Specifies a family name for a physical resource in the VMM library. This value is used in conjunction with Release, Namespace, and Type to establish equivalency among library resources.

-ID<Guid>

Specifies the numerical identifier (as a globally unique identifier, or GUID) for a specific object.

-Name<String>

Specifies the name of a VMM object.

-Release<String>

Specifies a string that describes the release of a library resource. VMM automatically creates a release value for every resource imported into the library. After the resource has been imported, the string can be customized.

-VMMServer<ServerConnection>

Specifies a VMM server object.

<CommonParameters>

This cmdlet supports the common parameters: -Verbose, -Debug, -ErrorAction, -ErrorVariable, -OutBuffer, and -OutVariable. For more information, see    about_CommonParameters (https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkID=113216).

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.

• ISO

Examples

1: Get all ISOs on all VMM library servers.

This command gets all ISO objects on VMMServer01 and displays information about these ISOs to the user.

The ISO files that the retrieved objects represent are stored in library shares on library servers.

PS C:\> Get-SCISO -VMMServer "VMMServer01.Contoso.com"

2: Get all ISOs on a specific VMM library server.

This command gets all objects that represent ISO files stored on LibraryServer01 and displays information about these ISOs to the user.

PS C:\> Get-SCISO -VMMServer "VMMServer1.Contoso.com" | where { $_.LibraryServer.Name -eq "LibraryServer01.Contoso.com" }

3: Get all ISOs with a specific string in the file name on any VMM library server.

This command gets all ISO objects on any VMM library server managed by VMMServer01 that contain "OsISO" in the file name, and then displays information about these ISO objects to the user.

NOTE: By default, the name of an ISO object in the library is the same name as the name of the actual ISO file stored in the file system on the library server.

PS C:\> Get-SCISO -VMMServer "VMMServer01.Contoso.com" | where { $_.Name -match  "OsISO" }
